How To Choose The Best Joint Sealant Contractors?

Joint Sealant Contractors are a very important part of the construction. Whether you are renovating a bathroom, installing a new roof, putting new doors or windows into your home or laying new floor tiles, you will need a professional joint sealer to fill any joint configuration so that the joint is sealed and air and water cannot pass through it.

Joint sealants ensure your construction work stands the test of time. When choosing Joint Sealants, it pays to always look at Silicone Sealants, Hybrid Sealants, Modified Silicone over Polyurethane Sealants. Silicone Sealants last for around 10-15 years on average while Polyurethane Sealants last just 5-7 years. Silicone is more durable and UV stable and will not break down as fast as polyurethanes.

Flexibility is key, not only with our service levels but our comprehensive range of 37 high quality sealant products which have been extensively lab tested with chemists determining they pass all Australian standards and far exceeds the quality of many products on the market.

The Importance of Quality Joint Sealants for Contractors

Investing in high quality joint sealants is essential for ensuring your construction work stands the test of time. For example, when selecting sealants, it is highly beneficial to consider silicone based options such as Simseal SS100, S60, and S50.

These products offer a range of technical benefits that contribute to their superior performance:

• Longevity and Durability: Both the SS100 and S60 are formulated for a long service life, with S60’s weatherproof and UV resistant properties making it a top choice for external architectural applications.
• Movement Capability: This is a key indicator of a sealant’s flexibility and ability to handle building expansion and contraction. Our Simseal SS100 is designed with a ±25% movement capability, making it ideal for joints in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Our S60 Architectural Weathering Sealant is a high performance product with an impressive ±50% movement capability (ASTM C719), perfect for large scale construction projects that experience significant structural movement.
• Low VOC Content: In line with modern green building trends, both sealants are low VOC compliant under the stringent SCAQMD Rule 1168. The SS100 has a VOC content of 31.11 g/L, while the S60 measures 45.54 g/L. This ensures a healthier indoor environment and contributes to achieving green building certifications like LEED.
• Antifungal Properties: Our Simseal SS100 is specifically formulated with antifungal agents to prevent mould growth in damp environments. It has been tested to meet ASTM G21 standards, receiving a “0 rating (No growth)”. This makes it the perfect solution for sealing around showers, bathtubs, and sinks.

As a result, your home stays warmer in winter and cooler in summer, ultimately reducing energy costs.
