Our customers around Sydney and NSW have come to rely on us for high-quality construction materials and equipment delivered direct to their worksites. From our extensive range of timber and plywood to construction adhesives and Soudal silicone, every product we sell is made and tested to the highest Australian standards. 

We know that every structure is only as strong as its weakest link, and we’ve built our reputation on unwavering customer service and an uncompromising approach to product quality. Our range of fillers and adhesives is second to none, and today we’re going to discuss how you can choose the right one for every application.

Silicone Caulking

At Timberfix, we stock a wide range of acrylic and silicone caulking solutions. Silicone caulking offers waterproof seals and remains flexible throughout its lifecycle. Among our most popular products is Soudal Roof & Gutter Silicone. This silicone is perfect for sealing, bonding, and weatherproofing applications and is tough enough to stand up to demanding outdoor conditions. It can be used to create strong adhesive bonds on non-porous materials including powder-coated- and anodised aluminium, roofing tiles, PVC, and stainless steel, among others.

Acrylic Caulking

For surfaces that will need to be painted, our Soudal Acrylic Gap Filler is easy to apply and offers good adhesion on plaster and aluminium surfaces. It is perfect for filling gaps and cracks as well as joints between window sills, brickwork, and spaces between plinths and floors.

Expanding Foam Fillers

Spray foam fillers are ideal for filling joints around window and door frames, vents, pipe entries, and other indoor applications. Our high-yield expanding foam from Sika is a fast-curing polyurethane foam that can be cut, sanded, and painted over. The foam’s high expansion rate and density mean it offers excellent sound- and thermal insulation protecting your structure from noise, cold, and draughts after one application.

Adhesives

Our most popular construction adhesive, Soudal Strong As Nails is a high-performance, solvent-based gap filler and adhesive. This super-strong adhesive is suitable for bonding in most assembly and construction applications. It is fast curing, quickly creating strong bonds on timber, MDF, particleboard, aluminium, cement, masonry, and polystyrene among others.

Some of the applications to which this adhesive is suited include fixing battens, architraves, window sills, skirting boards, and carpet grippers. It comes in a rain-proof plastic cartridge and features an easy-application nozzle with screw caps for longevity.
