Common problems we see
Peeling, shrinking caulk
As caulk ages it loses elasticity, shrinks and pulls away from the wall or floor, opening a gap that water runs straight through.
Black mould staining the seam
Mould grows in and under porous or failed caulk where moisture sits, and it can't be cleaned out — the sealant has to come out.
Soft, gummy or tacky caulk
Caulk that never fully cured, or is breaking down, stays soft and collects grime — a sign it needs to be removed and replaced.
Water leaking at a corner
Leaks at the base or corners usually mean the caulk has failed and water is escaping behind the tile or under the floor.

- 1
Cut out old sealant
We remove all old, mouldy or failed caulk down to a clean joint — applying new caulk over old traps residue and fails early.
- 2
Deep-clean and dry
The joint is scrubbed of mould and residue and fully dried so the new sealant bonds to a clean surface.
- 3
Mask and apply
We mask the tile for a crisp line and apply a premium 100% silicone, mildew-resistant sealant designed for wet areas.
- 4
Tool a clean bead
The bead is tooled smooth so it presses into the joint and sheds water, then the mask is removed for a clean finish.
What you get
- Watertight seams at every corner
- Mildew-resistant premium sealant
- Clean, professional finish
- Stops hidden water damage
Why Los Angeles showers need this
Los Angeles water varies by neighbourhood but is generally hard, and the scale of the city means showers see heavy daily use across a huge range of housing — from historic stone in Pasadena to sleek modern bathrooms in Santa Monica and the Westside. Hard water and frequent use together dull, scale and stain LA showers faster than most owners expect, so professional cleaning, sealing and restoration keeps them looking and performing their best.
Common shower issues in Los Angeles
Hard-water scale and film
LA's hard water leaves mineral scale on glass, tile and grout that dulls the shower and resists everyday cleaning.
Dull, etched natural stone
Marble, travertine and limestone showers across LA lose their shine to hard water and acidic contact, going dull and patchy.
Worn grout and failed caulk
Heavy daily use and mineral build-up crack grout and shrink caulk, opening the path for water to reach the substrate.
Slick polished floors
Polished stone and glossy tile floors common in LA bathrooms become a real slip risk the moment they're wet.
What affects the price
- Linear metres of seam being caulked
- Number of corners, fixtures and penetrations
- How much old caulk needs to be removed
- Whether mould remediation behind the seam is needed
- Access around glass, benches and niches
Aftercare & maintenance
Keep the new caulk dry for the full cure time (usually 24 hours). Clean it with mild, non-abrasive products and a soft cloth. A quick wipe-down after showering prevents soap and mould build-up and keeps the seam clean.
