Concrete is a valid choice for parking lots, sidewalks and other paved surfaces thanks to its durability. However, it’s not infallible and can be prone to cracking over time. In particular, concrete can crack when temperatures fluctuate and cause too much expansion and contraction, or when water penetrates the surface and freezes, leading to it being pushed apart.
One way pavers minimize the risk of cracking is by creating joints in the concrete. These are gaps between slabs that allow the material to contract and expand without fracturing. While this is a largely beneficial solution, it also comes with a risk. Water can seep between the joints into the soil and subbase below, where it can cause all kinds of issues that, unfortunately, often end with cracked concrete.
Fortunately, there’s a solution to this as well: concrete joint sealing by EverLine Coatings. Ideally, your joints should be sealed annually for the ultimate protection that keeps your concrete surface looking great year after year.
Concrete joint sealing often minimizes the need for other restorative services by reducing the likelihood that cracks set in. Left unsealed, joints are at risk of water and dirt penetrating underneath the concrete’s surface. This is a big problem in Edmonton for one simple reason: freezing winter temperatures. As the temperatures fall, the water freezes and expands. It can force the concrete apart, leaving it cracked and susceptible to worsening damage with time.
Beyond that, unsealed joints are at major risk when heavy vehicles, like transportation trucks, drive over them. These heavy vehicles force the concrete down and can cause the subbase to be pushed out through the joints. Over time, this can leave an uneven subbase that can’t properly support the slab of concrete anymore. The edges and corners can crack. To prevent this, saw joints are necessary and they must be sealed.
Sealing your concrete joints is one of the best proactive steps you can take as part of your annual maintenance. It provides major benefits, including:
