No more water leaking through the bricks…
LM from Huntsville, Alabama writes,
I would like to say thank you to Professional Products of Kansas, Inc. They could not have been more helpful when I contacted them (in a panic) looking for a product that would stop my newly built chimneys from leaking. They were extremely courteous and really went the extra mile. They had me ship them several bricks that I had left over from the chimneys being built. They performed a water uptake test on them and sent me a video showing my bricks taking on water before the product was applied and seeing them take on NONE after Professional Water Sealant was applied. It was very interesting to see the water sitting on top of the brick, whereas before, it would just immediately be absorbed. Seeing the video, I was sold! I ordered the product, had it applied and immediately the problems I was experiencing ended. No more water leaking through the bricks and down the inside of the chimney walls. No more leaking around the mortar joints above the metal flashing. It is not just that the product is amazing and works, it is about the company and their willingness to really help their customers out. I wish more companies were like them. If you choose to work with them and use their products, you will not be disappointed.
“We tried every remedy to stop the GALLONS of water…”
As you know, pursuant to our conversations about the water leaks through the bricks in my home, I am happy to say that it seems that the problem is solved.
I have built three custom homes in my life and one of the divisions of my business does a form of construction. I am familiar with construction and I have never been so impressed with a product as I have been with your “Professional Water Sealant.” There are not enough adjectives to help me express to you how great this product worked.
Without going into 10 pages of explanation, in brief, we built a new home and for the first year we tried every remedy to stop the GALLONS of water that would come into our home during heavy rain or melting snow. I finally found the problem to be defective brick and/or defective mortar. After researching the products available for water proofing, I made my last and best call to your company, Professional Products of Kansas, Inc. I knew after 3 minutes on the phone that my worries were over, because all of you people were so helpful and knowledgeable.
We followed all of your directions and applied your Professional Water Sealant. Keep in mind at this time your product was our last hope.
Well, approximately one year has passed and not one drop of water has seeped into our home. Your product turned a nightmare of a building into our dream home.
You can use me for a reference anytime you would like. You can tell your customers that our problem was a 20 on a scale of 1 to 10, and your product solved it.
Thank you,

“…the leakiest kiln fired clay brick I have ever come across.”
Bob Condon, owner of Trifecta Building Solutions, Inc.
“The project building is an eight year old residential three flat with a garden lower level (half above/ half below grade). The building envelope consists of two different types of kiln fired clay brick. The face brick on the front on the building is extremely hard and not very porous. However the brick used on the sides and back of the building is extremely porous and, in fact, is to date, the leakiest kiln fired clay brick I have ever come across. If I didn’t know better I would think I was working on a split face block building.
Because the brick was so porous I actually called and spoke with you in person to find out if I could use the PWS-15 on a kiln fired brick – to which you replied yes. You then put Rick Langenfeld in contact with me to do a RILEM tube test as well as product mock ups. Rick and his brother, Rob, came out and applied PWS-8 as well as PWS-15 to two 2ftX2ft sections on the front and side elevations. We determined based on what our customer wanted and what we thought would work best to use the PWS-15.
All this to say that we applied PWS-15 to the complete North/South/West elevations of the building and it appears to have stopped all the leakage. We actually had to demo all the drywall on the interior side of the exterior walls because they were so water soaked. We set up fans and dehumidifiers for a couple of weeks before we applied the sealer to ensure a completely dry exterior surface. The product seems to have done the trick as we have had not a single report of leakage since!!! The customer was thrilled that the problem was finally solved.”

Professional Water Sealant Extra –no more water leaks, no more worries! August, 2013
I would like to share my wonderful experience with Professional Water Sealant Extra.
Our home is on the water, on an inlet of the Long Island Sound in New York. We do not have any natural or man-made barriers to protect us from nor’easters. We get hit with some serious rain and wind. Our home is constructed of block and brick. With long-lasting 1-2″ of wind-driven rain, the brick on our north and east walls would become completely saturated. Gallons of water would pour in through the pot lights in our kitchens and above the window in our dining room wall. We were always mindful of the weather reports and made sure we had buckets in our kitchen windows and called our relatives to put in place if we were not home. We never left for vacation without putting the buckets in place. Our relatives were always on standby to empty the buckets if needed.
After trying a few different products with short-lived protection, we were desperate to find an alternative to covering our beautiful bricks with water-proof paint. So much internal water damage in our newly built home caused by water leaks.
We searched for a product that would protect our home. We were told by a water proofing contractor the only product that works is Professional Water Sealant. We liked everything we heard, got a sample, tried it and liked what we saw. After 24 hours or less, it was completely invisible. When hit with a full force hose for extended periods, the water beaded and rolled off. This was the product for us! We didn’t want to paint our brick to waterproof so the invisibility was definitely a great big plus.
In April, 2004 we had the north and east walls of our home treated with the Professional Water Sealant Extra. From that moment to this day, our home remains bone dry. For us there is no other waterproofing product. It is great not to worry about buckets and internal water damage any longer.
SIX years later, in May, 2010 we had our home treated again. We made it through HURRICANE IRENE (August, 2011) and HURRICANE SANDY (October, 2012) without one drop of water inside our home. As I write I realize of all our concerns in connection with Irene and especially Sandy (the waters of the Long Island Sound invading our yard and home), we didn’t even think 1 minute about water leaking in through our brick. Not 1 drop of water came into our home from the brick during either of these hurricanes. Professional Water Sealant Extra is a product that does the job without changing the look of our home. We test it every once in a while by spraying the brick with water and the water continues to bead and just roll off. I can’t say enough about this product. It’s a real winner. Problem solved. Use no other!
