What are Expansion Joints?

An expansion joint is a material placed in the joints between concrete slabs to protect the slabs from cracking when they contract and expand with the dramatic changes in Houston area temperatures. Think of it as a shock absorber, absorbing the stress from the slab’s movement.

Here is just some of what the job entails –

  1. First of all, debris is swept away from the site.
  2. The old material needs to be removed…probably with a putty knife.
  3. Clean out the joints with a wet vac.
  4. Apply the adhesive with a brush.
  5. Cover and then seal the joint.

Do you want it done professionally, or are you prepared for a less than perfect job that will affect the look of your property?  May we suggest Laird Landscaping of Katy serving the Houston area with quality landscaping work including expansion joint replacement?  Call Trey and the crew at Laird Landscaping for an estimate at (281) 578-2795.

Laird did an excellent job landscaping the flower bed behind my pool. As usual, Trey had his experienced crew do everything very professionally.

Mark Corley and his team at Larid did a fantastic job on our backyard project. We had a large space to work with, and Mark and team designed a beautiful patio with stamped concrete, artificial turf, and a set of new trees and star jasmine on the fence. His quote was reasonable, it laid out each scope of work as its own line item, and was transparent. There were no "surprises" along the way that caused additional billings, which I appreciated. Mark came to the house almost daily when the crews were here, to oversee everything. They finished on time and cleaned everything up nicely. I would highly recommend Laird!

I recently had Trey do a landscape project at my house . He and his crew did an amazing job! He listened what I wanted done and delivered a well-designed and well-executed project. I will definitely use him for any future projects and highly reccomend him and his crew.
