Fungicide-treated sanitary silicone for bathrooms, kitchens, windows & shower screens. Mapei Mapesil AC, colour matched to the grout. $11.20 per metre replaced.
Silicone is charged by the metre of joint, the same way grout is — you can count it yourself. $11.20 per metre to cut out the old and lay new, $7.50 per metre for a new bead onto a clean edge.
The thing worth knowing before you book: a van trip costs the same whether we lay 7 metres or 45. So silicone added to grout work costs the metres and nothing else, while a standalone visit is lifted to our $380 minimum job and then carries the $150 mobilisation on top. On a single bathroom that is the difference between $157 and $530 — book it with your grout if you can.
Mold growing on or under silicone — cleaning won't fix embedded mold. Singapore's 80%+ humidity causes regular silicone to mold within 2-3 years.
Silicone lifting away from tiles or fixtures, creating gaps where water can enter — this causes hidden leaks and damage to walls/floors.
Discoloured, yellowed silicone looks dirty even when clean. This indicates the silicone has degraded and lost its waterproof properties.
If water is seeping behind your shower screen, basin, or bathtub — the silicone seal has failed and needs professional replacement.
By the metre — $11.20/m to cut out and replace, $7.50/m for a new bead. A bathroom is about 14 m, so $157 alongside grout work, or $530 as a standalone visit: the $380 minimum job with the $150 mobilisation on top. Mapei Mapesil AC, colour matched to the grout.
When you see black mold, peeling edges, yellowing, or water leaking behind fixtures. In SG's humidity, silicone typically needs replacement every 3-5 years.
Mapei Mapesil AC, a sanitary-grade silicone whose colours match the Mapei grout range, so the silicone line and the grout line read as one. The fungicide is what separates sanitary grade from general-purpose silicone: it slows mould, it does not prevent it. In Singapore humidity, expect to replace silicone every 3 to 5 years whatever the brand.
Yes! Many customers do both — epoxy grout for tile lines + silicone for joints/gaps. Bundle pricing available.
