We've Got You Covered with Bathroom Sealing and Mold-Resistant Caulk

Getting that bathtub caulk replacement done is a pretty big deal for keeping your bathroom looking its best and lasting for years to come. I mean, cracked or moldy caulk is not just ugly - it's a recipe for disaster, especially if your bathroom is not kept water ready. Water can get behind walls & floors, causing a whole heap of problems. Our experienced bathroom sealing pros take the time to remove old grout caulk carefully, then apply a brand-new, top-notch waterproof sealant and silicone caulk that will keep water out and prevent mold from even showing its face.

We use only the highest quality, flexible silicone sealant that can flex and move with your bathtub or shower pan as it settles over time. When caulk fails, water seeps through the gap, setting the stage for mold and mildew growth to occur. We eliminate that risk by sealing all shower tile joints and sink perimeters with a caulking tool, which is a helpful tip for protecting your bathroom from mildew.

First off, we have to get rid of that old caulk - and we don't just scrape it off any old way. We use fundamental tools for the job - like caulk remover tools and some good old-fashioned elbow grease - to get every last bit of old caulk and residue out of there. Then we use strong chemicals and sometimes dish soap to ensure the clean surfaces are squeaky clean for the new caulk. Whether you need kitchen counter caulking or a specialized waterproof shower-seam repair, we've got the tools and expertise to get it done right.

Why Choose Our Caulking and Sealing Removal and Installation Service?

Our Caulking and Sealing Removal and Installation Service gives you three key benefits: health, longevity, & a great-looking bathroom.

Making Sure Your Surfaces are Ready for a Long-Lasting Seal

The key to a successful new seal is how well you prepare the surfaces. We make sure to get every last bit of mold, mildew, and old caulk out of there to achieve clean lines in our installation.

1. Remove Old Caulk: We use a putty knife and special caulk-removal tools to scrape out as much of the old caulk as possible. We take care not to damage any of the surrounding tiles or fixtures.

2. Chemical Residue Removal: Once we've removed most of the old caulk, we spray the area with a caulk remover or good old-fashioned rubbing alcohol to get rid of any leftover silicone or latex residue. We let it sit for a bit and then wipe it clean with a paper towel.

3. Final Clean: We give the surfaces a thorough wipe-down with soap & water to remove any lingering chemicals. Then we use some more rubbing alcohol to make sure everything is bone dry and ready for the new caulk.

It's the little things that make all the difference when it comes to a job done right.

Getting it Right with Mold-Resistant Silicone Caulk

We use the best of the best - premium, high-performance silicone caulk that's flexible, durable, and will keep the mold at bay while preventing excess sealant from forming.

• Picking the Right Stuff: We primarily use silicone for our shower and bathtub applications because it's far better than latex caulk at keeping water out. It stays flexible for years to come, accommodating the tiny movements of the tub & walls without cracking. We always choose a caulk product with real mold-fighting power.

• Getting the Bead Just Right: To get that perfect look, we often use some painter's tape to create a nice clean edge, then squeeze a smooth bead of caulk into the gap. We make sure to fill the whole thing to the top.

• Smoothing Out the Bead: We use a special tool or a damp finger covered in a bit of soap to smooth out the caulk right away. No excess caulk to worry about! And then we remove the tape and voila - perfect lines and a watertight seal.

It's attention to detail that sets us apart.

Fixing the Problem Areas

Our bathroom sealing service goes after the most likely leak points and mold-prone areas.

1. Shower Pan Sealing: The joint between the shower pan and the tiles is the most common failure point for bathrooms. We focus on getting that area clean and filling it with a continuous bead of silicone sealant.

2. Fixing the Toilet and Fixture Base: We also seal around the base of the toilet and any other fixtures that are prone to leakages into the floor or behind the drywall.

3. Drying Time Warranty - Let it Fully Cure: Silicone caulk needs to cure before exposure to water fully. We advise avoiding showers or baths for at least 24 hours to allow the new caulk to harden and seal tightly.

We share a couple of tricks you can use to get a super-smooth finish when applying the caulk - using a wet finger with water on it versus one that's just damp to see which gives you the best results.

• Preparing the Surface: We make sure all surfaces are squeaky clean and absolutely dry before applying the new sealant, so it adheres well. We give the final surface a good wipe with rubbing alcohol to make sure the sealant sticks properly.

Our Step-by-Step Caulk Replacement Process

We follow a tried-and-true procedure to get you a top-notch caulk job every time.

1. Getting Ready & Taking Out the Old Stuff: We use a putty knife and a caulk-remover tool to scrape out the bulk of the old caulk from gaps and cracks. Then we spray some caulk remover on there and wipe it all away with a damp cloth. We finish it off by spraying the area with some rubbing alcohol to give it a good degreasing.

2. Prepping the Area: We tape up the edges of the gap around the bathtub and shower to define the bead area, then apply new silicone caulk with a caulking gun to fill the gap.

3. Smoothing It Out: We use a caulking tool or a finger with soap on it to smooth out the bead and push the silicone deep into the cracks for a seal that'll last. We yank off the tape right away.

4. Letting it Cure: We tell our clients to keep the shower and tub surfaces bone dry for at least 24 hours, so the silicone can cure up good and strong. Trust us, this is the key to keeping the mould and mildew at bay.
