Perma-Chink log home chinking looks like traditional mortar. It stretches, compresses and tightly adheres to log surfaces to make your log walls weather tight and attractive. Perma-Chink is still the easiest and most durable log chinking to apply to your log home. If you are uncertain of the color you want, please order a free color card with actual chinking material attached for better representation.

After attending a hands on workshop in Knoxville, my wife and I took on the task of chinking our home, and we accomplished the task! Backer material in place, and the Perma-Chink applied from the pail with a bulk loading gun, tooled out and we're all sealed up! Use of a Follow Plate is very much recommended!!!!

Purchased a log hunting cabin in Colorado and I was concerned with the high elevation and how a sealants would hold up. Went with the Perma-Chink, as the old sealant was falling out. 3 years in now and it still looks great and all is still sealed. Great customer support when I needed it as well!!

I'm a log homeowner who stands behind Perma-Chink's chinking, lifeline stains, Advance top coat, log end seal, energy seal and every other product offered. My logs are hand-hewned with the original style chinking so we used I think 25 pails of chinking and none of it has failed. The chinking is tops, stain is very durable and easy to apply. The log end seal on my dovetails has preventing unwanted checking and weathering on the ends. The entire staff a Perma-Chink always goes the extra mile when I call and ask questions or for advice. Perma-Chink has the best customer service of any company period in all types of industries I interact with. Unbelievable!!

I chinked a 30 year old log home I recently purchased. The house had been unoccupied and unfinished. The first winter I froze. After chinking the next year, by myself I might add, I am finally warm. The product was easy to use. Thank you.

Great product. We tried Log-Jam, but were not too impressed. Permachink is easy to work with and very forgiving for beginners. I appreciate the videos on the site as well. And they ship it really fast. Very impressed.

I began using Permachink when i began working in a log cabin community as a contractor in 2012. I have ordered both the tubes and the 5 gallon bucket with plate and loading guns and while both are easy to use I prefer the 5 gallon bucket for quickness of loading when doing whole cabins. I couldn't be happier with how easy this product is to apply, how nice this product makes a cabin look, and how after years of checking back on cabins I have redone that the quality has held up. All of my customers are happy with it, and that leaves me ecstatic! Delivery is super quick - I've never had it take more than 3 days to get my product., and they have excellent customer service. This site has been super informational and introduced me to a lot of different log products that I now use and recommend to all of my clients. You have a customer for life.

Just a Thank You to both Brad and Amie who answered a lot of questions about chinking on the chat that's provided here. It was a great help, and the home is now airtight and lots warmer than last winter. Thanks again both of you for sharing your knowledge and patience with me!

We used this on our wide gaps between our square logs. It is, simply stated, awesome!!!! Easy to work with once we got the backer all cut (one piece at a time, took forever) and really, no learning curve. Gives a very authentic appearance like we were trying to achieve!

We used Perma-Chink in the Tan color between our logs and I have to admit it looks really good. It is still very soft (just applied it a few days ago), but it says it takes a few weeks to cure. So far so good!

We used the Stone Perma-Chink to chink our log home, and it looks just like mortar, which is exactly the look we were after. Very happy customers!

I used Perma-Chink and backer rod to fill in quarter inch and half inch gaps between my logs and my stone chimney. It worked great and was easy to use! Five Stars

This synthetic mortar chinking was recommended by our manufacturer and it seems to work pretty well so far....time will tell if it holds up.

While researching Log Home Chinking, Perma-Chink kept coming up. We ordered a catalog and received a whole packet of information that included a brochure that explained our upcoming journey perfectly. We ordered the chinking, bulk loading gun, follow plate, and backer rod, and with the help of the on-line videos and an on-line chat with the company (Amie was very helpful!!) we were able to accomplish this task. Great chinking product as well as the technical back-up for us as well. We're very satisfied customers!!

We used this on a 1880's log cabin that used to belong to my great great grandparents, and it looks just like mortar does. Perfect match to the period we were trying to get the look for. Easy to apply and clean up, and the stone is the perfect color. Really nice log home chinking, we're very happy!
