Parking Decks and Garages
With all parking structures, maintenance is critical. Joint sealants play a crucial role in maintaining the structure's weatherproof integrity of the structure, and over time, the joints tend to disintegrate from UV exposure and vehicular traffic.
Joint sealant failure is perhaps one of the most common repair issues observed in precast double-tee parking decks. Additionally, corrosion-related spalling, tee-to-tee shear connectors, bearing pad deterioration, and corrosion-embedded steel plate connections can also be an expected maintenance expenditure for owners.
Proper maintenance and inspections must be done to ensure that each of the structural components and the condition of the joint sealants is reviewed appropriately and replacement materials are designed and installed to ensure they will deliver the maximum expected service life.
Our Services Include:
- Concrete wash replacement
- Crack treatment
- Joint sealant replacement
- Expansion joint replacement
- Spall repairs
- Pressure cleaning
- Water repellents and polyurethane deck coatings
