    Looking for a recommendation to repair and reseal the grout/silicon in our shower. We noticed a wet ring in our ceiling directly below the master shower. Plumber says it's likely water seeping through the grout in between the tiles. Builder doesn't always put lining underneath the shower bench.

    We had the same thing and grout fixed the issue. Nothing a little youtube how-to video can't fix. Pretty easy job...

    Okay, forget my Mr. Handyman recommendation. While I have been quite pleased in the past with their technical handyman repairs/maintenance (multiple odd jobs done efficiently), I was not satisfied with the exterior painting/caulking job they were here for today ... it was sloppy. There were some areas where they caulked over broken caulk without removing the old caulk and other areas where they removed the old strips of caulk and left the pieces lying there on the porch. Because they are paid hourly, I opted to clean the mess up myself. :angryfire:
