FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Joint sealing involves filling the gaps between concrete slabs to prevent water, debris, and dirt from entering. It’s crucial for protecting your concrete from moisture damage, erosion, and cracking, helping to extend its lifespan.

Signs that your concrete may need joint sealing include visible gaps between slabs, water pooling, or weeds growing in the joints. If you notice these issues, it’s time to schedule a professional inspection to determine if sealing is necessary.

In general, joints should be inspected every 3-5 years. Depending on weather conditions and usage, they may need to be re-sealed to maintain their protective function.

We use high-quality, weather-resistant polyurethane or silicone sealants that are flexible enough to withstand Iowa’s freeze-thaw cycles and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-term durability.

Joint sealing is most effective when temperatures are above freezing, so it’s best to schedule the service during warmer months. However, we can assess your situation and recommend the best time for application based on current weather conditions.

The cost of joint sealing depends on the size and condition of the area being sealed. After our initial inspection, we provide a detailed estimate outlining the scope of work and associated costs.

Yes, by sealing the joints, you prevent soil and moisture from accumulating in the gaps, which significantly reduces the likelihood of weeds growing between concrete slabs.

Properly applied sealants can last for several years, but regular inspections are recommended to ensure they remain intact. Over time, sealants may need to be reapplied depending on wear and environmental exposure.
