More than half of homeowners (55%) plan to complete home renovation and improvement projects in 2023. Spring is the perfect time to start any of these projects, from exterior maintenance to interior renovations. Using a high quality hybrid sealer will help you prepare quickly and inexpensively for the upcoming warmer months. Before summer arrives, here are five home improvements that can be addressed with a hybrid sealer:
Over time, exposure to a variety of weather and climate conditions, including extreme heat and cold, can cause exterior sealants to fail. Make sure your windows and doors are properly sealed to improve your home’s energy efficiency and cut down on utility bills during the summer months. When treating exterior windows, doors, siding and trim, choose a high performance, waterproof and weather resistant sealant that will not crack, chip or lose adhesion over time. For example, OLIVIA weatherproof neutral silicone sealant ideal for outdoor applications with excellent weather resistance and flexibility, and is available in white and clear.
Summer thunderstorms can wreak havoc on your roof and gutters. An important task of gutters is to collect and direct rainwater so that it can drain properly without damaging the landscape or home. Ignoring a gutter leak can cause unwanted damage. It can be instantaneous, like water seeping through a basement, or slowly, eroding paint or even rotting wood. Luckily, leaking gutters are easy to fix. Once all debris has been removed, inspect the gutters for leaks and repair them with a caulk that is 100% sealed and watertight so you know the repair will take some time.
Cracks in concrete driveways, patios, or sidewalks are unsightly and, if left unnoticed, can become a serious problem that can be time-consuming and costly to repair. The good news is that you will notice them early – small cracks in concrete are easy to fix yourself! Fill narrow cracks and gaps with concrete sealer like OLIVIA silicone sealant, it’s 100% sealed and waterproof, self-adjusting, great for horizontal repairs and only takes 1 hour to paint and rain.
Ceramic tile has been a popular building material for bathrooms and kitchens for decades. But over time, small gaps and cracks form between the tiles, allowing water to seep in and mold to grow. For kitchens and bathrooms, use a caulk designed for this purpose to waterproof and prevent mold and mildew growth, such as OLIVIA Kitchen, Bath & Plumbing. While most silicone sealants need to be applied to a dry surface and should be rain/water resistant for 12 hours, this hybrid sealant is 100% waterproof, can be applied to wet or damp surfaces and becomes waterproof after only 30 hours. minutes. is also specially formulated to prevent mold and mildew growth and comes with a lifetime warranty to keep your sealant clean and fresh for the life of the ball.
As the weather warms up, pests increase, so it’s a good idea to check your brick, concrete, plaster, or siding for external holes or cracks before summer arrives. Through small openings, household pests such as ants, cockroaches and rodents can easily get inside. Not only are they a nuisance, but they can also wreak havoc on the structure of your home. Rodents can bite through walls, wires, and insulation, and termites can damage wood and other building materials. By filling gaps and cracks on the outside of the home with a hybrid sealant, homeowners can help get rid of these pests.
