Why You Should Replace Cracked Caulk Around Your Sink
Caulk around sinks and countertops doesn’t last forever. Over time it can dry out, shrink, or crack. When that happens, water can begin to seep behind the sink or countertop where you can’t see it.
Even small amounts of moisture in those areas can cause problems over time, including damage to cabinets, deterioration of wood materials, and the potential for mold growth. The good news is that replacing old caulk is a simple home maintenance task that most homeowners can handle themselves.
