The problems with caulk.
Acrylic, silicone and latex caulks have been popular in use since they are easy to work with. However, they pose significant performance problems. In dry settings, they eventually dry up, peel and crack. In wet settings, when they are exposed to ongoing moisture, they tend to re-emulsify, soften, peel, wash out of the joints, while turning black in color from mold and mildew. Caulk is not chemical resistance and when certain cleaners are used, the caulk will react and lose its bond, which in term allows moisture to compromise the sealant, creating mold!
Re-caulking is for handymen. Not passionate artists.
Stained, bulky caulk ruins any shower. Our artists started by redesigning the way their finished product looked with the thinnest most durable lines possible. Restoration to the fullest is just second nature. We do not use caulk for any application, no matter how small the job is – we do not sacrifice quality, we only use Sentura.

Our artists make it thin. Ingenuity makes it strong.
Sentura is a caulk substitute that will never peel, shrink, dry out, soften or stain. Fusing Sentura in all the corners – not only does this make the appearance thinner, it makes it better.
A better experience with every product.
The first thing you’ll notice is how incredibly strong and durable the Sentura is. It is a 2-part solvent resin/epoxy filler with sand that looks like grout or we can make it smooth to resemble caulk. We even color match the Sentura with Caponi® to blend in with your tile or grout – creating an astonishing look.
The very curse of mold.
Re-caulking is a temporary fix not a cure. Mold and mildew can be controlled by waterproofing the corners with Sentura and sealing the grout with Caponi®. Our ‘Healthy Shower’ system will prevent mold and mildew from growing. Steam machines only kill mold on the surface. We use chemicals, which penetrates deep into the cracks and corners to kill mold.

Questions about caulking? Here are our answers.
What is the difference between re-caulking and Sentura?
Sentura is stronger, will not peel and it is chemical resistant.
Why does D'Sapone® not re-caulk?
We used silicone caulk, acrylic caulk and urethane caulk over 12 years ago. The issue was – we received call backs within 6 months. The large caulk manufacturers warranty for a lifetime, but all we received was, another tube of caulk.
Why does the caulk in my shower mold so fast?
Shower is the most extreme environment in a home with all the moisture and humidity. Caulk based products are not formulated for that environment. Sentura is designed and intended for these harsh environments.
What does Sentura look like?
Sentura looks same as caulk and grout.
A contractor said, “he is not using caulk, it’s silicone,” is this true?
Silicone is a caulk and mold will grow on it in a shower
environment. Silicone will peel when it’s scrubbed.
Can Sentura be scrubbed after it has dried?
Yes. Unlike caulk, Sentura is very durable and will not
peel when scrubbed.
Is there a warranty?
Yes, we offer a 5 labor year warranty.
