Efficient. Reliable. Exceptional.

KG Building Restoration Inc. specializes in sealant replacement because we understand how essential it is in building envelope maintenance. Because building sealant is designed to protect the building envelope where it is most vulnerable, no wonder it is the first material to start deteriorating. It is not easy to detect at what stage sealant starts to deteriorate and needs a replacement. Ideally, you would always want to stay ahead of the game and replace the sealant before the actual damage to the building.

In reality, building envelope sealant usually comes somewhere at the end of the list of maintenance priorities—usually, concrete and façade cracks, roofing, garage ramps, and plumbing take precedence, while sealant replacement experts are called in when it is too late and the damages are visible.

If you manage the building, it is important to know that the sealant replacement cycle is 12 to 20 years, depending on the product and conditions, of course. So at the 12-year mark, you have to start monitoring the sealant more closely and hire an expert for inspection.

WHERE IS SEALANT APPLIED?

As sealant is designed to protect the vulnerable parts of the building from exposure to weather elements and temperature fluctuations it is applied:

· Control and expansion joints

· Settlement cracks

· Around window and door perimeters

· Copings

· Any structural elements prone to movement

Although you might dread a sealant replacement project but the advantage is that now the companies that manufacture the sealant are manufacturing much better and durable product than a mere 10 years before.

Now, the newer technologies allow to apply sealant to just about any surface you can find in construction: concrete, cement, rock, metal, timber, etc. The quality of the sealing materials has improved greatly. For you, as a building manager, this means saving time and effort as well as better protection for the building in the long run.

In our sealant replacement projects, we work with materials that have delivered outstanding performance over a long period of time, and our prices stay competitive.
