What types of caulk work best for San Marcos’ extreme climate swings?
Flexible and enduring exterior caulks that withstand expansion, and contraction are vital for blazing summers, periodic winter storms, and heavy spring rains. Acrylic latex is an excellent option for easy indoor paintability. Please chat with us to customize choices for your home’s unique needs.
How does caulk differ from general sealant?
While both seal openings, caulk is formulated to adhere better to small cracks but can shrink slightly over time. Sealants are highly flexible, waterproof, and can withstand movement but may not take paint well. We suggest the optimal product for every distinct caulking project.
Why is caulking important for San Marcos, TX homes?
With heavy precipitation, seasonal temperature extremes between high summer heat and winter freezes, storms, and wind, local homes need exceptional sealing against the elements that gradually damage structures. Solid caulking also increases energy efficiency, deters pests, and promotes healthier indoor air quality.
How can caulking help prevent San Marcos pests?
Careful caulking closes off tiny access points in foundations, exterior walls, rooflines, and structures, denying entry to nuisance critters like mice, snakes, spiders, roaches, and more. Sealing those gaps promotes cleaner, more comfortable indoor living environments.
