Sealing
- Protecting your home
Joint sealing - or caulking - is a necessary part of any construction project.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Caulking [kaw-king]
v. Caulk
To make watertight or airtight by filling or sealing cracks, joints and seams.
During the construction process, joints and other openings are sealed with specific sealants that are designed to repel fire, noise,
insects, air and water. This not only helps maintain the structure and protect against rain damage but also improves the
environmental friendliness of your building.
Many different types of surfaces need sealing. Bathrooms, skirting boards, laundries, driveways, windows and balconies
are common household areas that require the attention of quality silicone, acrylic or polyurethane sealants.
Expansion joints, external cladding, block work, tilt up and pre-cast concrete structures also need sealing by
knowledgeable professionals to ensure longevity and stability for commercial and industrial structures.
Applying the wrong materials incorrectly causes 90 per cent of all joint failure problems, so it's important to
choose an experienced team to seal gaps and joints from external elements that cause damage and decay.
Waterproofing
From flooding to unsightly spots or costly repairs, water in the wrong spot can be disastrous.
Waterproofing is one of the most important parts of any construction. A building or other structure is waterproofed with the use
of membranes that act as a barrier to protect contents underneath or within the surface that is being sealed.
Waterproofing is also essential in protecting structural integrity.
The Australian government requires all tiling work to be professionally waterproofed. Many other projects such as roofs,
ponds, planters, pools and retaining walls also require waterproofing to prevent leaks and promote longevity.
Stop Gap Solutions offer qualified and professional waterproofing solutions for commercial, industrial and residential projects.
From swimming pools to shop floors, we can provide you with a quality result that is guaranteed to protect your construction against unwanted water intrusion.
Protecting the environment
Sealing unwanted leaks is an excellent way to cut energy costs and decrease the carbon footprint of your building.
The average home loses around 15 per cent of its total energy expenditure through gaps that have been incorrectly sealed. These gaps not only allow for the intrusion of rain, draughts, noise, insects and dust, but also leak valuable energy.
By correctly sealing your joints and surfaces you can prevent air from escaping, saving both the environment and your
heating and cooling costs. Sealing cracks and crevices around the home can also put less strain on appliances and reduce overall waste and pollution.
