Exterior Maintenance Guide - The Importance of Routine Caulking for Commercial Buildings

 If you own a commercial property, you’ll already be aware of the importance of routine exterior maintenance. One key element of this is Caulking. It’s more than just aesthetics, however – and not doing so can cost you money, as well as the comfort of those working there.   Keep reading on to find out why caulking is important for commercial buildings.   What is Caulking? Caulking uses a material called ‘caulk’ which is used to seal gaps around doors, windows and other building materials.

Caulks basically do two jobs in the bathroom: seal against moisture intrusion and provide a pleasing joint between fixtures and wall finish materials. For the most part, careful detailing will minimize the reliance upon caulk for both functions, but there are still instances when it is necessary. Types of Caulk While there are about a dozen types of caulks available for residential use, caulks for use in bathrooms fall into three basic categories: latex, acrylic latex (sometimes with silicone), and silicone. Latex caulks are easy to apply and easy to clean up because they’re water based and hold paint well. I like to use them when painting with latex paint because they are cheap and fi...
