Concrete Joint Caulking and Crack Repair Boise, Idaho
To protect concrete slabs that haven’t settled and to maintain settled slabs that have been lifted and leveled, sealing joints and cracks is the best way to prevent your concrete from future settlement problems. Over time cracks develop in concrete because of the voids underneath your slab. Voids are created because of poor soils, compaction and water intrusion. Water intrudes through unsealed control and expansion joints. If the crack has a height difference the concrete will need to be lifted and leveled before repairing the crack. Go Green Insulation and Concrete Lifting will level the concrete through our Poly Lift and Level Process. After leveling the crack, our highly skilled team will repair the crack and fill it with our specially formulated flexible caulking.
How Go Green Insulation and Concrete Lifting will repair the crack:
- We will clean all joints and cracks from debris.
- Caulking will be installed in the joints and cracks.
- Then several passes of spoon troweling will ensure a perfect end result.
- A coat of sand is applied to make it resemble the surface texture of your existing concrete.
Go Green Insulation and Concrete Lifting uses a special formulated commercial grade silicone based concrete caulk. Our concrete crack fillers have several advantages over more common polyurethane products. These include better adhesion, much greater flexibility (up to 50% more flexible), UV stability, and they won’t harden over time like those other caulks do. Our crack fillers last up to twenty years.
