    Grout Internal Corners Or Just Silicone?

    Hi, Just wondered what do tilers do with internal corners, do you grout them and silicone, I was thinking it’s best to not grout them and just silicone them. Assume it must give a better seal as it can get into the gap rather than sitting on top of the grout? Any advice appreciated Many thanks
