You Could Read a How To…or have it done Right the First Time

First, a bit of a tutorial. An expansion joint is a material placed in the cracks (AKA joints). It goes between concrete slabs to protect those slabs from cracking when they contract and expand as the temperature changes. In the Houston area that temperature change can be dramatic as we all know!

Here are a few steps that Laird Landscaping in Katy will follow –

  1. All of the dirt and debris needs to be removed from the area.
  2. Use a putty knife to remove old material.
  3. Apply something they found to be perfect for the area.
  4. Insert a rod called a “foam backer”.

There are many other steps, of course. When you are ready to tackle a job such as expansion joint replacement…stop! Think of how beautiful it will look when done by the pros at Laird Landscaping who serve the greater Houston area. Just call them first 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.
