Mould and fungus on sealants – causes, counter-measures and prevention!
Mould & Fungus can cause significant damage to bathrooms and pose a serious threat to your health.
The best means of prevention against mould is good ventilation and regular cleaning and disinfection of the elastic silicone sealant joints.
It is important to understand that the anti-fungal properties of any silicone sealant cannot be guaranteed permanently, since the protective agents used can be inactivated over time by the mould/fungi.
