Expansion joint treatment

Expansion joint treatment

Expansion joints are essential components in any building, as they allow for movement between different sections of the building, preventing damage from building materials expanding and contracting due to temperature changes or other external factors. However, if these joints are not properly treated, they can become a source of water infiltration and other structural issues. This is where RR Waterproofing comes in, providing a range of solutions for expansion joint treatment to ensure that buildings remain safe and structurally sound.
One of the most common expansion joint treatment solutions offered by RR Waterproofing is the installation of joint sealants. Joint sealants are applied to the expansion joint to provide a waterproof and airtight seal, preventing water infiltration and other structural issues. The sealants used by RR Waterproofing are specifically designed to withstand movement and maintain their seal over time, ensuring long-lasting protection for the building.
In addition to joint sealants, RR Waterproofing also offers a range of other expansion joint treatment solutions. This includes the installation of joint covers, which protect the joint from exposure to external factors such as weather, temperature, and moisture. The covers can be customized to match the aesthetics of the building, ensuring that they do not detract from its overall design.
