getting ready to grout…
Ive nearly finished putting up the 8x24 tiles around the tub area (not shower).
Im planning to caulk the joints that run along the tub. I’m considering grouting the vertical corners. I know this is done both ways though caulk is the “approved” way. I left these corners a bit fat at 3/16” (matching the other grout lines). Might be a lot to fill with caulk. Opinions welcome here…
Also, is it better to caulk corners and then grout or visa versa? Seems like caulking first might be easier.

...also is a function of the structure, what floor you're on, what the sub-floor is made of, how new or old the house is...basically, how much the walls expand and contract. In my 50 year old building with a block wall, nothing moves...so corner grout hasn't been an issue.
