I installed our neo-angle shower in our downstairs basement, exactly as

the
instructions said. Where told to put sealant, I did so. After a couple

of
years, the shower leaks in two places and it is rotting the drywall. (see
these photos):

Should I coat the joins of the shower with sealant even though the
instruction said not to? Is water supposed to drain back from some of

these
joins?

Also, in our upstairs bathroom, the tub surround leaks as well. I

replaced
the old silicone with a product recommended by a Home Depot "expert"
(LOL)... The product was a piece of sh** (I think it was a type of MONO
sealant. It now leaks as bad as ever (see pictures):

I'm just asking what others would do. I have some ideas, but I'm just
looking for a little input before I proceed. I have left this too long

and
now I have to fix it. Tips? comments? advice? suggestions?
