Hi all,We have a shower in the corner of the bathroom and have just tiled the 2 walls (one stud the other brick) it sits against. There seems to be conflicting advice as to whether the corner where the 2 walls meet should be grouted or not. Some say yes other say no because it will crack due to slight movement in the wall (I guess the stud wall relative to the brick wall) so we should mastic it instead. Would appreciate your thoughtsThanksLee.

Same configuration and I grouted. However 6 months down-line and there was a hairline crack so I used mastic over the top of the grout with no problems seen since

Do you grout the corner

OK. The stuff in my shower took some removing when I wanted to replace it because of looks. Many years old too.

No, should I?

That would be my plan for any adhesive, especially to something at least partially glazed like a tile.
