Installation process

How we install expansion joints

A clear path from inspection to finished work.

STEP 01

Inspection

We identify slab sections at risk of thermal or minor-shift cracking.

STEP 02

Joint planning

Spacing and placement are mapped to the slab layout.

STEP 03

Installation

Joints are cut or formed at the planned intervals.

STEP 04

Sealing

Joint material is installed to allow controlled movement.

STEP 05

Finish

The surface is cleaned and inspected for proper function.

"The mistake people make is treating a symptom as the problem. We diagnose why a foundation moved before we decide how to stabilize it, then stand behind the work with a warranty tied to what the piers actually reached."

Get several quotes and you'll see a wide range of prices. The gap isn't luck, it's whether the contractor finds the actual cause and stands behind the work.
