Log Home Chinking & Sealants

Log chinking is important for any log home. Chinking fills the in-between gaps in log walls, and provides protection and insulation from the outside elements.

High quality log chink material stretches and compresses and stays elastic, minimizing the chances of premature cracking, peeling or pulling away from properly prepared home logs. It creates a tight seal on crevices that effectively prevents unwanted dust, wind, and moisture from seeping into the log cabin interior. It is generally recommended to apply a stain that is compatible with the material before filling in the log wall gaps.

Here at Western Log Home Supply, we carry a wide selection of high quality cabin chinking and caulking products, and other sealants for log home construction, maintenance and repair. We also carry a wide variety of stains, which can serve as a base for the log chinking, improve adhesion of the material, and help protect your home against all kinds of weather conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Log Home Chinking

We understand that you may have questions about our log home chinking products. To help, we've compiled a list of frequently asked questions that cover a broad range of topics related to log home chinking. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to give us a call to learn more about our products.

What is Chinking for Log Cabins?

Chinking is a material that is used to fill the gaps between the logs of a log home or cabin. These gaps can occur naturally over time as the logs settle, or they can be created intentionally for aesthetic purposes. Chinking is typically made from a flexible material, such as silicone or acrylic, and is applied to the gaps between the logs using a caulking gun.

Are There Special Maintenance Requirements for Log Home Chinking?

Yes, there are some special maintenance requirements for log home chinking to ensure its effectiveness and longevity. Regularly inspect the chinking to identify any cracks, gaps, or other signs of wear and tear. These should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent water and air from penetrating the logs.

Additionally, chinking for log homes should be cleaned periodically to remove dirt, debris, and other materials that can degrade its performance over time. Cleaning can be done using a mild soap and water solution and a soft-bristled brush.

It's important to avoid using harsh chemicals or power washing on the chinking, as this can damage the material and reduce its effectiveness. Proper maintenance of log home chinking can help to extend its lifespan and keep your log home well-protected from the elements.

Can I Apply Chinking Myself or Should I Hire a Professional?

Whether you can apply sealants for log homes like chinking by yourself may depend on your level of experience with home maintenance projects and the specific requirements of your log home. Sealants like chinking can be time-consuming and labor-intensive to apply, making the process undesirable for most non-professionals

However, if you have experience with similar types of home maintenance projects and feel confident in your ability to do the job, you may be able to apply chinking to your log cabin yourself. If you are unsure about the process or don't have the necessary tools or equipment, it would be best to hire a professional.
