On masonry buildings, caulk is used at expansion joints,
perimeter joints and areas where window frames and stoops
meet masonry. Caulk is more able to expand, contract, and
move than is mortar making it a better sealant for these
applications.
An open caulk joint allows unwelcome water into your building
and brickwork. It may also allow heated or air-conditioned
air to leak out. It may even provide an entrance for unwanted
insect pests. Inspection and caulking should be considered
as a part of regular maintenance of your building to maintain
its value and increase its aesthetic appeal.
The choice of caulking material and the technique and experience
of the workman will make the difference between a neat and
effective job and a sloppy and inadequate one. A.M.1 Construction
Company's experience includes work on commercial, governmental,
industrial, institutional, and residential buildings.
Dealing directly with the owner will save you money and
all work is guaranteed.
