Have you ever seen a rundown driveway leading up to a stunning home? Or have you tripped on a rutted and broken up sidewalk on your street? If you answer yes to either of these questions, then I can confidently tell you that you have been witness to the expansion joint pandemic sweeping through America. League City, TX. Mar, 2015. The problem of expansion joint damage has been pervasive for years, destroying the concrete driveways and sidewalks of the average homeowner with ruthless impunity. The culprit in this case happens to be our elements- mainly the sun, rain and wind, which we have no control over. When the weather changes from hot to cold and back to hot, the wooden expansion joints found in between concrete slabs alternatively expand and contract until they are completely eroded. This problem is so persistent that millions of homeowners along the Gulf Coast have admitted that their homes are suffering from it. When it comes to expansion joint repairs, the solution is not as simple as it may seem. You can try replacing the worn down wooden joints with new wooden joints, but this solution is temporary. You can go in the direction of adding caulk to your driveway or sidewalk, but this messy process will cost you a small fortune. You can even attempt to use weed killer to eliminate anything growing in between your slabs, however run off water could cause this pesticide to harm the environment around you. Even the Houston Chapter American Concrete Institute has failed to find an innovative approach to combat this problem. But fear not homeowners, a League City company has managed to shine bright during these dark times. On January 25th of this year, League City Company Trim-A-Slab graced the 5th Annual Sugar Land Home & Garden Show at the Stafford Center. As an exhibitor at this Houston event, Trim-A-Slab once and for all answered homeowner’s cries for an expansion joint repair solution, by presenting attendees with a durable, affordable, versatile, aesthetically appealing, and environmentally-friendly expansion joint alternative. This alternative was thought up by space engineer Bob Wilkes, and manages to restore the original state of your driveway or sidewalk without the drawbacks of the aforementioned expansion joint solutions. In fact, if you would like to see a comparison chart of all the expansion joint options visit the informative Trim-A-Slab website: http://www.trim-a-slab.com/ For every homeowner who missed the Sugar Land Home & Garden Show, here is a rundown of what Trim-A-Slab presented and demonstrated to those in attendance. The expansion joint solution comes in the form of PVC filler strips with UV inhibitors, which prevent the elements from damaging the joint. These filler strips are guaranteed to maintain the structural integrity of your driveway or sidewalk for at least 10 years, and are so simple to install that the Tim-A-Slab exhibitors gave a live demonstration. There is no question as to why these high quality Trim-A-Slab expansion joint filler strips stole the show at the Houston event, as they offer a refined, self-maintaining and efficient solution to a messy problem.
