Silicone Repair and Replacement Service Singapore

Keeping silicone seals in tip-top shape isn’t as easy as it looks, especially in Singapore’s hot, humid climate. Constant heat and moisture from the surrounding environment can cause silicone seals to crack and fail after a while. Over time, they’ll start to trap dirt, accumulate mould, or peel away, leaving gaps that will compromise the waterproofing of the seals. Humidity also makes it harder for silicone to stay dry properly after cleaning. 

At Pro Handyman Singapore, we understand how challenging Singapore’s climate can be, especially on home maintenance. Whether it’s cracked or mouldy silicone around your sink, bathtub, or windows that have to be replaced, we can do it all. We’ll use only high-quality, waterproof, long-lasting materials that will keep moisture out and your home looking spotless again. Relax, knowing your home’s in good hands, and give us a chance to help take care of it!

Versatile Silicon Solutions for Every Space

Laundry-Room-Resilience

Laundry Area 

Your laundry area is constantly exposed to water, humidity, and detergent splashes, which can wear out silicone seals fast. Over time, the edges around sinks, pipes, and countertops may start cracking or peeling, letting water seep into gaps and causing mold or damage. We’ll help by removing old, damaged silicone and resealing everything with high-quality, waterproof silicone that can handle daily moisture and heat. With our expert application, your laundry area will stay watertight, clean, and free from leaks or mold.

Kitchen-Durability

Kitchen 

Bathrooms are one of the toughest places to maintain silicone because of constant steam, water splashes, and cleaning products. The silicone around your bathtub, shower, and sink often wears out first, leading to mould growth and small leaks that can damage tiles and grout. Our team replaces worn-out seals with premium, anti-mould silicone designed for high-moisture areas. We make sure every joint and edge is sealed perfectly, keeping your bathroom fresh, clean, and protected against water damage and mildew.

Washroom-and-Bathroom-Waterproofing

Bathroom

The kitchen sees plenty of heat, grease, and water, all of which can cause silicone to deteriorate over time. You’ll usually find it around sinks, countertops, and backsplashes. Old silicone here can trap grime or let water seep underneath. We’ll clean out the old, cracked sealant and apply fresh, food-safe silicone that resists heat, moisture, and staining. The result? A cleaner, more hygienic kitchen that looks polished and stays easy to maintain.

Our Silicone Repair and Replacement Process

Step 1: Inspect and Prepare
We start by checking the area to identify any damaged or old silicone that needs replacing. Once we’ve confirmed the problem spots, we remove the worn-out sealant using professional tools to avoid scratching the surfaces. The area is then cleaned thoroughly to get rid of any dirt, mould, or residue. This ensures the new silicone sticks properly and creates a long-lasting seal that prevents leaks or damage later on.

Step 2: Clean and Dry the Surface
After the old silicone is removed, we make sure the surface is completely clean and dry. Any trace of moisture, dust, or soap scum can stop the new silicone from bonding properly, so we use specialised cleaning solutions and dry cloths for a spotless result. Depending on the surface, we may also apply a mild solvent to remove any stubborn residue.

Step 3: Apply the New Silicone Sealant
Once everything is ready, we apply high-quality silicone using a caulking gun for precision. Our team carefully runs the bead along the joint or gap, making sure it’s evenly applied for a clean, professional look. We then smooth out the silicone using a finishing tool or finger to create a neat seal. 

Step 4: Cure and Clean
The final step is letting the silicone cure properly, which usually takes about 24 hours. During this time, the area should stay untouched to ensure the seal sets perfectly. Once cured, we do a final check to make sure everything looks clean and consistent with no gaps or bubbles. We also wipe down the surrounding surfaces, leaving the area spotless. 

Silicone Repair and Replacement

Common Causes for Silicone Repair and Replacement

Cracking or Peeling Silicone
Silicone naturally wears down with age, especially in areas exposed to sunlight, heat, or frequent water contact. Over time, it can dry out, crack, or peel away from the surface, leaving gaps that allow water to seep through. When this happens, it’s no longer protecting the area effectively. Replacing cracked silicone promptly helps prevent water damage, mould growth, and structural issues.

Incorrect Application
If silicone was not applied correctly the first time, it can fail much sooner than expected. Common mistakes include applying it to a wet or dirty surface, using the wrong type of sealant, or leaving uneven gaps. These issues cause weak adhesion and early peeling or cracking. A professional reapplication ensures the silicone bonds properly and provides a clean, durable finish that lasts.

Mould and Mildew
Over time, moisture buildup around sinks, bathtubs, and windows can cause mould and mildew to grow on silicone seals. This not only looks unpleasant but can also weaken the silicone and reduce its ability to keep water out. Even with regular cleaning, mould can seep into the material and cause stains or odours. These nasty organisms can also pose a health risk. Once this happens, replacing the silicone is the best way for a clean, healthy home.
 

Natural Wear and Tear

Even the best silicone sealant won’t last forever, especially in Singapore’s humidity. Constant exposure to moisture, cleaning products, and temperature changes slowly wears it down. Over time, the seal may lose its elasticity and stop providing a tight barrier. Regular inspection helps catch these signs early before leaks or damage occur. Replacing the silicone when it starts to look worn keeps your bathroom or kitchen looking fresh and prevents more costly repairs down the line.

Tips on Maintaining Your Silicone

Tips-to-Maintain-Your-Silicone

Keep It Clean and Dry
Taking a minute to wipe down your silicone keeps it in good shape. Just use a damp cloth and mild soap, and then dry it well with a soft, absorbent cloth. Keeping your silicone clean and dry helps prevent mould and grime from building up. Don’t use any harsh chemical cleaners or scrubbing pads as they’ll damage the seal.

Check for Cracks or Peeling
Every now and then, take a quick look at your silicone to see if it’s starting to crack, peel, or change colour. Catching small problems early can save you from leaks and water damage later. If you notice anything off, clean and dry the area before doing a touch-up or calling in a pro. A few minutes of checking here and there will help spot small problems before they become big ones.

Use Gentle Cleaners
Strong bleach or heavy-duty bathroom sprays might sound effective, but they’re rough on silicone. Try using gentle cleaners instead, something like vinegar and water, or a mild bathroom cleaner. For stubborn spots, grab a soft brush and scrub lightly. It’s all about being kind to your silicone so it stays flexible, shiny, and strong. 

Keep the Air Flowing
Moisture is silicone’s worst enemy, so good ventilation is super important. After showers or baths, open a window or turn on the fan to help things dry faster. In the kitchen, make sure steam isn’t hanging around your silicone seals. Proper airflow keeps mould away, helps the silicone stay in top shape, and the bonus is your kitchen stays airy and well-ventilated.
