Thoughts on the first time using it - would have been more readable if the moderators had different font colors, or if each comment was shaded slightly different.

Yeah I have this same problem.Make sure you spend an extra couple bucks per tube and get the good stuff.It will be waterproof tight and the good silicone stays pliable and flexes when expands.This keeps the seal 100% tight.The cheap crap won't flex and then will start cracking and allow water behind it in certain spots.Will slow the leak down but not get rid of it completely.I would take this time to make sure where the ceiling is soft that there is no leaks coming from the tub drain,shower diverter,or shower head pipe behind the wall.Also it's not always the tub leaking.The toilet is usually close by to the shower.The seal at the toilet to the floor for sewer or the bolts from the tank to bowl could be bad or the seal for the flush between the tank and the bowl.The water can slowly run down the outside of the back of the tank under the sub floor.When you take the drywall off and look at the sub floor underneath you should see darker areas where the leak is more prominent.You can also use a moisture meter to determine the first point of entry for the leak.Make sure control valve and diverter are snug to the wall and sealed properly.Water can get behind there while taking a shower and cause a slow drip.

Remember to keep the grout dark, grey or darker, as that minimizes the dirty look of light grout needing cleaning and re-sealing.Replace fluorescent lighting with cheap easy access standard bulb fixtures.

Over the years I've tiled a number of counter tops & my number one tip is to use a darker colored grout.

We are not on the beach, so i dont get advertise that, but we are about a 3 minute walk directly across the street. but i also price myself very competitively, our place is nice imo, we have sun shade canopy, coolers, chairs, wagon, beach toys, etc. much better than trying to cram everyone into a smaller space, we're cheaper than the bigger houses and you dont have to have multiple hotel rooms. so i guess we stand out, but not having to spend money being gimicky. and i know, different things resonate for different markets.

Install cheap shades,turn on some lights, and maybe a radio load enough to hear thru the door.
