PRL Construction's "Threshold Inch" Revolutionizes Home Entryway Waterproofing
Keizer, OR – October 26, 2023 – PRL Construction LLC, a leading Oregon-based construction and remodeling firm, today announced the launch of "Threshold Inch," a groundbreaking new product designed to eliminate water damage and improve the longevity of home entryways. This isn’t just another sealant; it’s a complete system tackling a surprisingly common problem. For years, homeowners have battled with water creeping in around thresholds – that little gap under your door. Rain, snowmelt, even just washing the porch, can find its way inside, causing rot, mold, and expensive repairs. We at PRL Construction have seen it all. And frankly, we got tired of fixing the same water damage issues year after year. “We were constantly getting calls about damaged door frames and flooring,” explains David Miller, founder of PRL Construction. “After years of patching things up, we realized we needed a proactive solution, something that actually stops the water before it becomes a problem.” That’s where "Threshold Inch" comes in. It’s not a one-size-fits-all deal. We started noticing a lot of current products just didn't cut it, especially with the varying weather we get here in Oregon. Some were flimsy, some were hard to install, and most just didn’t last. So we designed something better. What is "Threshold Inch"? “Threshold Inch” is a multi-layered system built around a specially formulated, highly durable sealant coupled with a customizable threshold extender. Here's the breakdown: The Sealant: This isn't your average caulk. We've been playing around with formulations for ages, and this one's the winner. It’s a super-flexible, waterproof polymer specifically designed to bond to wood, vinyl, metal – pretty much anything you'd find around a doorway. It expands and contracts with the materials, so it doesn’t crack and let water in. We call it "FlexiSeal," and it's the backbone of the whole system. The Extender: This is where the "Inch" part comes in. Often, the existing threshold isn't quite high enough to meet the door sweep, especially as surfaces settle over time. "Threshold Inch" includes a range of extender pieces, from ¼ inch to a full inch, allowing you to perfectly close that gap. These aren’t just slapped on; they’re precision-cut and designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing threshold. We offer options for wood, composite, and even PVC, so you can match your existing trim. The Drainage Channel (Optional): For areas prone to serious water buildup, we offer an optional drainage channel that fits under the threshold. This directs any water that does get past the primary seal away from the door frame and out to the exterior. It’s a bit of an overachiever, but hey, we like to be thorough. Why "Threshold Inch" is Different PRL Construction didn't just want to create another sealant; we wanted to solve a problem. Here's what sets “Threshold Inch” apart: Complete System: It's not just about sealing the gap; it's about creating a system that addresses the root causes of water intrusion. Customizable: The extender pieces allow you to tailor the solution to your specific doorway. No more cutting or patching required. Durable: The “FlexiSeal” sealant is designed to withstand years of exposure to the elements. We’ve put it through rigorous testing, and it holds up beautifully. Easy Installation: We designed this for both DIYers and professionals. The kit includes clear instructions and all the necessary tools for a quick and easy installation. We also offer professional installation services, of course. Prevents Costly Repairs: By preventing water damage, "Threshold Inch" can save homeowners thousands of dollars in repairs down the road. Think about it: replacing a rotted door frame or flooring is expensive.
