Default tiles above tub look wet



A few years ago this happened on another spot (I thought soap scum retained
water) and eventually the wall crumbled and had to be rebuilt. Is it a sign
the wall behind the tiles are wet? Is it enough toseal the cracks around the
tiles?




The way I "rebuilt" the crumbled wall just this November was I got a sheet of
PVC about ten by twenty inches, put flashing compund behind it and sealed
around with silicon. I can't afford any big projects. I'm freaking out.
