Through Rain and Snow and Dark of Night, Depend on Weatherall Company

With increased consumer interest, beginning in the early 1980's, in returning to a more "natural" style versus "city" life and forsaking the big city for a more relaxed atmosphere, the log home industry began a rapid expansion that is still being enjoyed today. The need for a superior home sealant system became apparent. The requirements for this new sealant were elasticity, adhesion, flexibility and weathering characteristics.

At the same time, the desire was to provide the appearance of the old mortar texture. With exceptional technical capabilities, in 1982 the Weatherall Company became the first company to develop an all-acrylic, elastomeric chinking for log homes. This revolutionary new product was known as Weatherall 1010 Chinking®. Shortly thereafter Weatherall Company developed a new log finish that was compatible with the chinking. Next a unique backer-rod was engineered to complete the first true Log Home Sealant System-a total system that would provide the ultimate protection against the harsh elements of weather: sunlight, moisture and wind. The entire Log Home Sealant System now consists of:  

  • Weatherall 1010 Chinking®
  • Triple Stretch® Chinking
  • Log Guard® Interior Wood Finish
  • Tri-Rod® Backer-Rod
  • UV Guard® Exterior Wood Finish
  • UV Guard® Premium Caulk
  • UV Guard® Textured Caulk
  • UV Guard® Deck & Fence Coating

This system not only enhances the beauty of the log home, but also assures unsurpassed protection and longevity.  

With the advent of this new Log Home Sealant System came the need to develop a strict set of standards and appropriate application methods. The Weatherall Company Chinking Application Guide evolved and is currently available to all homeowners, applicators and builders.

Weatherall Company continually updates and improves product quality to provide enhanced performance. We take pride in choosing only premium raw materials to produce the highest quality products. Weatherall Company is proud to be among the leaders in the industry and the choice of log home builders, architects and applicators.
