Joint Sealing

Michigan's freeze-thaw cycles at various parts of the year can take a toll on your concrete if it's not properly sealed. Water can fill cracks or joints, and when it freezes, cracking and shifting can occur. Joint sealing can help prevent water intrusion into these spaces, thereby protecting the concrete and the subgrade.

Concrete has multiple joints, all of which can benefit from proper sealing and extend the overall life of the concrete.

1. Initial assessment & inspection

We'll begin by evaluating your concrete to ensure that it's a good candidate for sealing. In some cases, other repairs may be necessary before sealing can be effective.

2. Cleaning & preparation

Before we begin sealing, we will grind out joints and cracks to get a clean surface area for the application.

3. Application of sealant

Once the site has been prepped, we'll apply our high-quality, flexible sealant to the joints and cracks.

4. Curing & final inspection

After application, the sealant has to cure. Following curing, we'll inspect the work and ensure joints are properly sealed.

This past year I had foam concrete leveling done on my driveway, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Detroit Concrete Leveling was professional, efficient, and thorough during the entire project. They arrived on time, explained the entire process, and took great care of my property.I am impressed by how smooth and even the surface looks, even after a few months later, and I love that there was no mess or damage to my landscaping.It’s been several months now, and everything is holding up great! I highly recommend this service to anyone looking to fix uneven concrete without the hassle or expense of full replacement.

Mike’s crew was amazing! We had 5 patio slabs and 10 sidewalk slabs that had all started sinking towards the foundation of our house. They came out last week and raised all of the concrete within a few hours and even caulked everything between the house and concrete. They were extremely friendly and made sure to discuss the whole process beforehand as well as making sure we were satisfied with the end result. Could not have been a more pleasant experience! I would recommend this company to anyone looking to have any concrete work done.
Zach and Conner from Detroit Concrete Levelling in Clinton Township did a fabulous job. I had many areas (sidewalks, walkway to the porch and my driveway) that needed to be leveled. These two company representatives worked expediently and with precistion. I observed atttention to detail and great work ethic. They arrived on time and worked steadily until the big job was done. I am looking forward to getting many more years out of the concrete at my house. Thanks for a great job! I highly this company.
