    Got bathroom renovated recenly. Only noticed moisture in corner just outside shower. It's especially noticeable in the grout where the floor meets the wall. Any ideas of cause? It's there after we shower. We're worried now they didn't correctly waterproof behind the tiles in the shower

    Can you post a few pictures of the set-up and the water in relation to both the shower head and any nearly divide such as a shower door/wall. For example is it a shower tray with surrounding shower door or more of a wetroom style tiled floor either on a shower former or concrete screed.
    Unlikely the water is getting in behind the tiles already so first guess would be they omitted to silicone between the shower door and wall and water is escaping there and out onto the floor.

    Tried deleting post. It's ok we worked out that it's silicone so easily enough fixed. The bathroom renovation crowd were total cowboys so we're just paranoid about everything and wouldn't be surprised if they didn't waterproof correctly and will show up in 6 months times. We're tempted to rip off a tile in shower to check what they did behind
