I’ve used expensive,cheap & in between
Redid a shower about 2 months ago with unibond & custard says getting mould already
She reckons she cleans regularly. Nice people.
Any thoughts
In my shower I’ve tried all makes but I still cut out & redo twice a year in the first sign of black mould
Any thoughts?

I only know of one job which I've been back to years later where the silicon is pristine white and NO mould.
I asked her what's her secret she said "I do the full enclosed shower area with Domestos original bleach once a week".
Additionally, she say's it only takes a couple of minutes and is done when the shower is dry and the Domestos has until the next day to work before the shower is used.
Now this is a family house of two adults and three teenagers so the shower sees plenty action and I was back to fit a new shower pump.

I’m going to try it Cheers again I find if you use silicon smoothers 1- the job looks really neat. 2- the water runs of it's "ramped" profile and don't sit in the silicon allowing to get mold on it,like when it's done with a finger,👍
