    Shower wall tile grout leaking
    After every shower, carpet corner just outside the shower door is very wet. Shower wall is made of ceramic tile. I covered and taped the wall with large plastic. I didn't see anymore leaks. I removed the plastic and inspected the grouts and corners very closely. I don't see any cracks. Can the grout leak even though there are no obvious cracks. What do recommend to do.
    Regards

    Never say never but not likely. Seal around the shower door frame against the tile with silicone. Seal all areas where the unit meets the tile.
