How to add shower sealant where floor meets wall?

I have recently purchased my first home and have noticed that both tiled showers do not have any silicone or sealant around where the floor meets the wall (see attached images) is this something that should be of concern?

Re: Shower sealant

Hello @jarrodvasso 

 

Upon closer observation of the photos, it appears that the former owner used grout instead of a silicone sealer where the floor and wall tiles meet. It is possible to place a silicone sealer over that spot. I suggest using Selleys 300g White Wet Area Waterproof Silicone Sealant

 

Here is a handy step-by-step guide:  How To Silicone Seal A Bath (the techniques used are applicable to your project)

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
