Expansion joints
Every long building moves. The cover over the joint decides whether that movement stays invisible or becomes the first thing a visitor trips on.
What we bring: Interior and exterior expansion joint covers for floors, walls, ceilings, and roofs, in the assemblies the building requires, from Construction Specialties.
What gets asked most
The questions we hear first on expansion joint projects.
- Which cover system suits a joint that has to carry carts, beds, and floor cleaning equipment every day.
- How the floor, wall, ceiling, and roof covers meet at a corner so the joint reads as one assembly.
- What the finish over the joint should be so it disappears into the flooring around it.
Where decisions go wrong
And where we come in.
Expansion joint decisions go wrong when they are left to the last submittal. By then the joint width is fixed, the flooring is chosen, and the cover has to absorb every compromise the rest of the building made.
We bring Construction Specialties into the conversation while the structural engineer is still setting the joint, so the cover, the finish, and the movement are decided together and documented once.
