Caulking & Sealing for Richmond homes
Failed bathroom, kitchen and trim caulk removed and replaced with the appropriate clean, flexible sealant for the joint and exposure.
Because Richmond is home base, small fixture jobs are practical here: a leaking faucet, failed fan or loose cabinet does not need to wait until it becomes a full renovation. Group a few items if you have them, but the $50 minimum still makes a single repair bookable.
Richmond is our closest service area, so same-week scheduling is usually straightforward and urgent jobs often fit the same day.

Show us the job
Send one wide photo, one close-up and any model number or product link. We reply with a price, a range or the one missing detail needed to quote.
- 02
Confirm the scope
The estimate states what is included, what parts are expected and what would change the number. Work outside that scope needs your approval first.
- 03
Protect and complete
We protect nearby finishes, use the right fixing or repair method for the building, and keep dust and removed material under control.
- 04
Review before we leave
You see the finished work, operate moving fixtures where relevant and receive photos when access or tenancy keeps you off site.
What it costs
A useful number before the visit
Small runs can be grouped under the minimum call-out. Full shower or tub re-caulking costs more because old sealant must be removed completely and the joint dried before new material is applied.
Materials and parts are charged at cost. If opening the work reveals a different condition, you see the photo and revised number before it becomes work.

FAQ
Caulking & Sealing questions in Richmond
Can you caulk over the old bead?
We do not recommend it. New sealant only performs properly when loose and contaminated material is removed and the joint is clean and dry.
Does black caulk always mean mould?
Not always, but stained or failed sealant should be removed so the joint can be inspected. Active mould or hidden water damage may need specialist treatment.
How do you schedule Richmond?
Richmond is our closest service area, so same-week scheduling is usually straightforward and urgent jobs often fit the same day.
