Bath Reseal Frequently Asked Questions
What causes mould to my bath sealant?
Firstly, there is no such thing as a mould free silicone sealant, manufacturers use terms such as mould resistant or even anti-mould, it’s nonsense. Ventilation is the key, such as a bathroom extraction fan or an open window. Bathrooms have high humidity so require a larger air exchange than a bedroom.
The bath sealant gets wet from a shower over the bath, this sealant remains wet if there isn’t proper ventilation, extraction or not wiped down. Microscopic mould grows on the sealant that spreads quite rapidly. Properly ventilated bathrooms significantly reduce the moisture content thus reducing the ideal conditions for mould to grow.
It’s the damp plus lack of ventilation that allows the mould to grow. With proper ventilation the silicone seals dry out which eliminates the conditions for mould to grow, no mystery.
How long does it take to reseal a bath?
Generally, it takes about an hour to reseal a bathtub, depending on the condition of the existing sealant and the size of the area.
