Hello,
I am a total amateur DIYer, redoing my little bathroom. I tiled the shower walls and bathroom floor, but chose a pre-made shower floor because I didn't trust my ability to do this with tile (kinda wish I had... oh well!)
Anyways, I put some painters and masking tape on the face of the shower floor, to protect it from getting scratched up while installing and tiling the bathroom floor. But... where the bathroom floor grout meets the pre-made shower floor, I accidentally left the tape on and grouted right against it!
Now that the bathroom is almost done, I removed the visible tape, and it looks fine. But, I am worried about water sneaking in between the grout and the face of the shower floor, where some tape is still hiding.
Should I be worried? Should I do something to fix this? Or is it fine? I thought about running some silicone caulk over it, but worry it will look crappy in no time.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
