The lack of protection from the elements is the most common kind of deterioration we see with log homes. If the condition is not taken care of the wood will start to rot. There are also many homes that have not been sealed properly and have allowed energy loss while allowing insects to take up residence! Some insects, if allowed to go un-checked, can promote the rotting process of almost any log structure. The chinking will stick to the log work and allow the logs to move as they expand and contract.

Since 1981, Perma-Chink Log Home Sealant has proven itself on thousands of chinked and chinkless style homes to become the most widely applied chinking in the world. It’s simply the best chinking by every measure: longevity, appearance, performance and ease of application.

Perma-Chink is a flexible, textured log home chinking that seals the open gaps between logs to eliminate heat loss and air infiltration. Even though it looks and feels like traditional mortar, it’s not. Perma-Chink is a pure acrylic that adheres to logs and stretches to maintain a tight seal by following log movement.
