What would work better? Grout or caulk?

Question

we had a new porcelain  tile floor installed in our  foyet  two years ago.  The installer used grout between the bottom of our steps, which are wood, and the tile.  It has, subsequently, begun to chip out.   I was thinking about it and wondered if xCohock would work better since it isnt brittle  and can take a bit of movement from season to season.  (Contraction : expansion) Anyone have a similar problem?  I can't put molding over it because the bottom step is curved and it would not look right .  Thanks

Actually, you can buy flexible shoe molding for the bottom curved/bull step and that should solve your issue (and look nicer). You can usually purchase this at lumberyards.

definely should have used caulk. You can get it to match exactly with the grout from a tile company.
