Default Ceramic tiles changing color

posted for all of us...



Its the drywall behind tiles.tiles and grout is not 100% waterproof.there is not cement board behind tiles.it must be green drywall which they say is waterproof but its only to some extent. Second is the glue used for tiles. It should be thinset cement in cement or beckerboard. Water goes through the silicon or grout or tiles and with moisture drywall gets wet which discolored the tiles


And?
