Hudson Designs on Apr 04, 2011This is defendantly a stress crack, The corners and floor joint should have been caulked using a polyurethane caulk. If there is mold behind the wall I would advise you to pull out the tile.Helpful Reply

KMS Woodworks on Apr 04, 2011I like to use flexible caulk for tile transitions...ie: from one plane to another. Especially from wall to floor, or wall to tub. Hopefully this tile is set on backer board, pulling the grout from the corner is a pain but still plenty doable. Since the cracks have appeared you may be past the more settling point and the re-grouting may stay intact. If you know the grout color you can shop for / order a sanded caulk in the exact same color, applying this in the "hot" spots should do the trick.Helpful Reply
