Recaulking Services in Apex, NC
Professional Removal and Replacement of Old Caulk
Is the caulk around your bathtub, shower, or sinks peeling, cracking, or turning black? Deteriorating caulk is not just an eyesore; it allows water to seep behind your tiles, leading to costly water damage and hidden structural issues. At The Grout Medic of Raleigh, we specialize in expert recaulking, removing failed sealants, and applying durable, mold-resistant silicone to restore the seal and shine of your wet areas.
We understand the specific challenges Apex homes face, from high humidity to seasonal settling that stresses joints. Our expert technicians provide a precise, clean removal of old materials and apply a fresh, watertight bead that revitalizes the look of your bathroom or kitchen instantly. Protect your home from moisture intrusion with our Expert Local Service.

Why Professional Recaulking is Essential
Over time, even the best caulk breaks down due to scrubbing, moisture, and house settling. Once the seal breaks, water gets trapped behind the caulk, creating a breeding ground for mildew and bacteria that is impossible to clean away. DIY fixes often fail because they apply new caulk over the old, which doesn't form a proper bond.
Our Thorough Recaulking Process Includes:
- Complete Removal: We strip away the old, damaged caulk entirely to expose a clean surface.
- Sanitization: We treat the area with steam vapor to kill bacteria and mildew spores hiding in the joint.
- Precision Application: We apply high-quality, mold-resistant silicone for a smooth, watertight seal that lasts.
- Color Matching: We choose materials that blend seamlessly with your existing grout and tile.
Whether you need to seal a shower in a historic downtown Apex home or a modern bathroom in a new development, our service restores the clean, crisp lines you love.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need recaulking?
If your caulk is peeling, cracking, missing in spots, or has black stains that won't scrub off (mildew), it has failed. Another sign is if you see gaps opening up between the tub and the tile. Addressing this early prevents water from rotting the drywall or subfloor behind it.
Can I just put new caulk over the old caulk?
No. New caulk will not bond properly to old silicone. It will peel off quickly and trap moisture between the layers, accelerating mildew growth. Our professional Recaulking service involves removing 100% of the old material for a secure, lasting bond.
What areas do you recaulk?
We focus on high-moisture areas where watertight seals are critical: bathtubs, shower stalls, kitchen backsplashes, and bathroom vanities. We ensure the joints where vertical and horizontal planes meet are flexible and sealed tightly.
Is your process safe for my home?
Yes. We use eco-friendly products and advanced tools to remove old caulk without scratching your tiles or tub. Our sanitization process uses steam, which is chemical-free and safe for children and pets.
How long does the service take?
Most recaulking projects can be completed in a single visit. We remove the old material, clean, dry, and reapply the new seal efficiently so you can get back to using your bathroom as soon as possible (usually after a short drying period of 24 hours).
