Expansion Joint Caulking and Sealing in Kyiv

Seam sealing

Sealing joints is an important step in protecting the facade from moisture, freezing, and premature destruction of structures. Over time, inter-panel and facade joints lose their elasticity, cracks appear, leaks occur, and cold bridges form. Industrial climbing allows you to seal joints at any height without installing scaffolding and lifts, which is especially relevant for residential and commercial buildings.

Sealing joints by climbers is used both in primary construction and during the operation of buildings. This approach makes it possible to quickly inspect the facade, determine the real causes of leaks, and select the optimal repair technology. Climbers seal joints using professional materials designed for long-term use in conditions of temperature fluctuations and atmospheric loads.

Types of work on sealing facade joints

Using their accumulated experience and modern materials, our employees will perform the entire range of joint sealing works:

  • Inspection of the facade for damage to the waterproofing of joints (photo report); 
  • Primary sealing of interpanel joints; 
  • Secondary sealing (without opening the seams); 
  • Secondary sealing of the joint (with partial opening); 
  • Secondary sealing (with filling the joint with Vilaterm and waterproofing); 
  • Sealing using the “Warm Seam” technology; 
  • Sealing of canopies, balconies, roofs in Kiev; 
  • Sealing of joints and double-glazed windows. 

Based on the nature of the damage to the seam, Alp Star specialists will select the optimal technology and necessary materials (hermobutyl, oxyplast, elur, or sazilast) and perform high-quality seam sealing in Kyiv. Depending on the materials selected, we provide a warranty of 3 to 7 years.

The cost of sealing work depends on:

  1. Selected technology 
  2. The material used (as the cost of materials varies significantly); 
  3. The scope of work performed (the cost per linear meter when ordering 5 linear meters will differ significantly from the cost per linear meter when sealing all joints in an apartment or an entire riser). 

The minimum cost of work and materials per 1 running meter is 150 UAH.

Professional sealing of joints using industrial climbing techniques allows you to restore the tightness of the facade, reduce heat loss, and extend the life of the building without major construction work.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why is professional joint sealing necessary?

It protects the premises from drafts, wall freezing, and the appearance of harmful mold. High-quality sealing increases the building’s energy efficiency and helps to significantly save on heating costs.

How do I know if my building’s joints need repair?

Main signs include dampness in room corners, mold on walls, or noticeable drafts from under baseboards. You should also look for visible cracks and material peeling on the facade joints from the outside.

What sealing technology do you use?

We use the “Warm Joint” method, which involves cleaning the joint, installing insulation, and applying a waterproof mastic finish. This ensures maximum density and a long-lasting connection.

Can joint sealing be performed in winter?

Yes, the use of special winter sealants allows for installation at temperatures as low as -15°C. The main condition for high-quality material adhesion is a dry facade surface without active precipitation.

What determines the cost and how can I order the service?

The price depends on the total linear footage, the condition of the joints, and the complexity of access for climbers. For a free site evaluation, call (067) 25-82-999 or email alpstar.kiev@gmail.com.
