Gap Between Wall Tile And Ceiling

So now there is a varying gap 0 to 1 4 between the top of the tiled wall and the ceiling.

Gap between wall tile and ceiling.

Covering this gap isn t a difficult process. Maybe it will look better once it s grouted but right now my eye focuses on the gaps and not the beautiful stone. There is a slight gap between the tiles on the wall and the ceiling. Never fill this gap with grout because tile grout is not flexible.

The previous owner had recently re tiled the shower from the tub to the previous ceiling. Caulking is the best choice for this application. Photos attached hopefully i think they re upside down but what you re looking at is the corner where the tiling is on one wall and that wall meets a plastered wall and a plastered ceiling. Alan the floor of your shower looks great but it agree that there seems to be too much of a gap between the wall tiles.

When the ceiling changes height across the length of a wall a gap between wall and ceiling can result. In all cases covering the seams between. When i put the inside the shower last tile on there was only 1 16 to 1 8th inch gap. Instead fill it with an elastic material capable of sustaining the movement of the floor and the movement of the wall.

All it takes is a quick patching job with fiberglass mesh tape.
