Las Vegas heat and low humidity can cause caulk to dry out, shrink, and crack faster than in milder climates. Proper caulking helps prevent water intrusion in wet areas and reduces air leaks around windows and doors, improving comfort and energy efficiency.
Most caulk should be inspected yearly and replaced every 3–5 years depending on exposure. Bathrooms, showers, and exterior joints may need replacement sooner because moisture, cleaning chemicals, UV sunlight, and movement can break down sealant faster.
Yes. We remove deteriorated or moldy caulk, clean and prep the joint properly, and apply fresh mildew-resistant silicone for a clean finish and stronger waterproof protection. Proper prep is key—new caulk won’t last if old residue remains.
Yes. Sealing gaps reduces air leakage, meaning your HVAC system doesn’t work as hard to keep your home cool. In Las Vegas, reducing hot air intrusion can noticeably improve comfort and help lower cooling costs over time.
Silicone is best for wet areas (showers, tubs, sinks) because it’s flexible and water-resistant. Paintable acrylic/latex caulk is commonly used for trim and interior finishing where you want a smooth look that can be painted over. We choose the correct product for each surface and location.
Many sealants skin over in 30–60 minutes, but full cure often takes 24 hours (sometimes longer depending on humidity and product type). We’ll give you clear instructions on when you can use the shower or clean the area again.
Yes, for many minor exterior cracks and gaps. We use flexible exterior sealants designed for movement and weather exposure. If cracks are structural or widespread, we may recommend stucco repair first and then sealing to finish and protect the area.
It prevents damage. Failed caulk can allow water behind tile, into cabinets, and into wall cavities—leading to mold, swelling, and deterioration. It also allows air leaks that reduce comfort and increase energy use. Good sealing is preventative maintenance that saves money long-term.
Often yes, depending on schedule and the scope of work. Small reseals or targeted sealing projects can usually be completed quickly. Larger whole-home sealing may require more time or a planned appointment window.
Yes. We stand behind our workmanship and use quality sealants designed for durability. Warranty coverage can vary by scope and location (bathroom vs. exterior), and we’ll explain it clearly at the time of service.
