Floor joint fillers are an inexpensive and cost-effective application that will extend the life of your flooring system. D&R Masonry Restoration’s experienced and professional team are experts in both the installation and repair of floor joint fillers.
Floor joint fillers have an important function of transferring loads from one slab to the next and aid in keeping the slab edges from getting damaged with carts and forklifts. These joints allow for load transfer yet still allow for some minor movement in the slabs.
It’s important to make sure that the floor joint filler process is done properly. Target areas should be carefully cleaned and examined before repairs. For instance, if it is necessary to replace old filler, it must be properly removed with recut edging so that the new filler is able to do its job.
Though filler can be very helpful for concrete floors, if it is not applied and/or looked after well, it may to be redone. At D&R Masonry Restoration we make sure to do the job correctly the first time. If you choose this service and wish to have some helpful maintenance tips for afterwards, we can assist you to ensure your concrete floors remain stable and looking good.
Why install or repair floor joint fillers
Gaps, spalls, and cracks are a concern in concrete floors for multiple reasons. First, unlevel flooring can present a trip hazard and be generally irritating for you to deal with, particularly if you’re having to transport items on it on a usual basis. Breaks can show and create weakened integrity as well. Sanitary conditions can be a concern with splits in floors – many people forget that different things are constantly being tracked in and on the problem areas. Finally, broken concrete floors don’t give off a pleasant look. They can make the interior of a building look run down and uncared for.
Floor joint fillers are able to keep your flooring strong but with a little bit of wiggle room for minor movement. Trip hazards are patched up, unsanitary conditions are cleaned and covered, and everything looks neat and level. And, using joint fillers also helps prevent further damage in the future. By making all your flooring polished and flat, you actually protect them!
What Causes These Flooring Issues?
Different types of cracks, spalls, and gaps can form over time in your concrete flooring, especially if there are issues which are left unaddressed.
Shrinking and contraction are normal for concrete, which means gaps can be created. These can then greatly affect the overall strength of your flooring as they experience further wear and tear over time. Climate can also potentially influence the state of your flooring.
Poor installation and/or maintenance issues with previous floor joint fillers can eventually make spalls break and open over time, too. For example, if your joint filler was installed with gaps from the get-go, you had someone who added insult to injury. We take care to make sure our installations are just right to create an even, pleasing surface so that you don’t have to deal with more messy and frustrating problems down the road.
