Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on how many areas need recaulking and how much removal work is required. Kensington homeowners take care of their properties. Our team approaches every job here with the same care, and leaves the work area clean. Our team gives you a clear quote for the full scope.

No. Caulk applied over existing caulk does not bond correctly and fails quickly. Our team removes all old material completely before applying new caulk.

In a wet area, professional caulk should last five to ten years with normal use. Caulk applied over old material may fail within months.

Our team uses 100% silicone or siliconized latex caulk rated for wet areas with mold-resistant additives. It bonds correctly to the surface and holds up to daily moisture.

In a heavily used shower, caulk typically lasts five to seven years before it begins to fail. If it is turning dark, peeling, or pulling away from the surface, it needs to be replaced now regardless of age.

Press on the tile or the wall surface around the tub and shower. If it flexes, feels soft, or the tile sounds hollow when tapped, water has likely gotten behind the surface and the issue is bigger than new caulk. If the surface is solid and the only problem is failed caulk lines, recaulking resolves it. Our team checks the substrate condition before starting.

New caulk applied over old caulk does not bond properly and fails quickly. The substrate may also have slight movement from the structure that keeps breaking the joint. Our team removes all old material completely, preps the surface dry, and uses the correct product for the specific application. That is the difference between caulk that lasts years and caulk that fails in months.

Yes. Our team works through all the caulking locations in one visit. It is more efficient and makes sure everything is done with the correct product for each application: wet area silicone for showers, paintable latex for trim and windows, and exterior-grade sealant for outside joints.

Yes. The surface needs to be dry for at least 24 hours before new caulk is applied. If you can avoid using the shower the night before, that helps. Our team checks the surface before starting and will tell you if it needs more time to dry.

Call us directly at (301) 395-3831. Walk the bathroom before calling and note all the joints and areas that need attention. A single visit handles all of it. Our team serves Kensington and all of Montgomery County. MHIC #112963. Licensed and insured.
