Not sure if Im typing this in the right place?!

I fitted a bathroom for a customer around 8 months ago. Low profile tray and tiled fully, mixer shower from combi.
Problem started just over a month ago, where after showering they get water slowly coming from a tiny hole (not visible) out the silicone seal between tiles and tray. This isn't on the shower wall but on a solid wall. I checked the grout which was slightly cracked in one patch, so raked out and re-grouted. But the problems still happening and the grout hasn't cracked again.

Any advice would be great because it's driving me mad! Never had a problem like this before!
Thanks in advance 🙂
 
water is getting in and then seeping out, just need to find where. did you silicone tray in and then apply a finishing bead to tray/tiles.
 
Yeah i fitted the shower tray, then ran a bead of silicone around the tray, tiled, then another bead of silicone around tray. There's no cracks in the grout now or holes that I can see, it seems so strange! Thanks for replying
 
is it coming out from the aluminum uprights?.

did you bed them into silicone before pushing them back to the wall?
 
I siliconed the back of the profiles before screwing them back to the wall. It's roughly central to the tray that the waters coming from. Very small amount but by the end of the day, it's worked it's way to the waste.
