About Windermere: On an isthmus between Lake Down and Lake Butler, Windermere is a small Orange County town west-southwest of Orlando, part of the Butler Chain of Lakes. The town is compact, with many unpaved streets, historic buildings and a number of parks, and many Windermere addresses lie outside its limits.
Water sits close on either side of the town, which stands on an isthmus between Lake Down and Lake Butler, and the first place indoor moisture gets a say is a bead of caulk. Tub and shower seams crack and go black. Window and door frames open at the corners. Weatherstripping flattens. None of it is dramatic, which is why it waits, and a house that stands shut for months gives the damp more time to work.
The list for a closed-up house is mostly small joints. Tub, shower and sink caulk that has cracked, shrunk or gone black with mildew is cut out and replaced. Door and window frames get fresh sealant at the gaps, and worn weatherstripping at a door edge is swapped, which helps the AC keep up when the house reopens. Exterior trim gaps and minor surface cracks are sealed too. Cure times follow the product label. A leak, a soft wall or a failing window unit is separate repair work.
Pick the visit around the owner’s calendar: before departure, so the seals are fresh as the house is shut, or before arrival, so the tub and doors are done before anyone unpacks. Walk the house first and note cracked caulk, black shower seams, drafts at a door and water stains under a window. The post on small caulking jobs that head off big problems is a useful read beforehand. Once you know the dates, a call to (407) 638-8956 or the request form books the visit.
These answers apply across the Orlando metro, including Winter Park, Kissimmee, Lake Nona, Windermere, Oviedo and Winter Garden.
Sun, heat, humidity and heavy rain make sealant harden, crack and pull away from joints faster than in milder climates.
Look at exterior window and door frames, trim joints, tubs, showers, sinks and any pipe or vent that passes through a wall.
Yes. Removing failed caulk, cleaning the joint and applying the right sealant is routine handyman work and often prevents larger moisture repairs.
It is a sensible time. Cracked tub caulk and worn door and window seals are easier to sort out while the owner can point them out. Fresh sealant keeps out some water, drafts and damp, but no seal is a promise against leaks. Plan around your travel dates.
Yes, by cutting out the old caulk and sealing the joint again, and nothing more. Clean Corps does not test for or remediate mold and does not diagnose leaks. A house left shut for months can hold humidity, so describe the seams when you request service online.
Often. A door that leaks air lets outside air in the whole time a house sits closed, and worn weatherstripping is a common source. Replacing it helps the AC keep up once it runs again. Clean Corps makes no savings claims. Note which doors when you ask for a visit.
