Concrete Expansion Joint Repair & Sealing Service
Rebuild damaged concrete. Restore flexible seals. Minimize downtime.
Failed expansion joints can cause leaks, broken concrete edges, traffic hazards and recurring maintenance. Banks Industrial Group rebuilds deteriorated concrete and installs durable elastomeric seals to restore joint performance while accommodating movement.
Our hands-on crews use fast-curing Belzona polymer systems and other specialized materials to extend service life and minimize downtime. We serve industrial and commercial facilities throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and New York. Applications include concrete tanks, chemical containment areas, underground vaults, warehouse floors and parking garages.
Benefits of Specialized Joint Repair
-
Extend concrete service life by rebuilding damaged edges and sealing out water and debris
-
Minimize downtime with fast-curing repair and sealing systems selected for your service conditions
-
Reduce recurring maintenance: Properly installed elastomeric systems provide a durable alternative to routine recaulking
-
Restore watertight performance: Seal joints to limit water loss, infiltration and damage to surrounding areas
-
Protect chemical containment with repair materials selected for the chemicals present
-
Accommodate joint movement while maintaining a flexible seal through expansion and contraction
-
Improve traffic safety by repairing broken edges that create bumps and trip hazards
-
Reduce equipment and product damage caused by forklifts and carts crossing deteriorated joints
-
Repair joints in any orientation: Use non-sag materials for vertical and overhead joint sealing
What Does Expansion Joint Repair Include?
Expansion joint repair removes failed sealant and deteriorated concrete, rebuilds damaged joint edges and installs a new flexible seal. The completed joint must accommodate movement while resisting water, traffic, chemicals and environmental exposure.
This service addresses industrial expansion joints exposed to traffic, water, chemicals or immersion. For damaged interior floor-joint covers in hospitals, pharmaceutical facilities and similar environments, see BIG’s Smooth Ride Floor Joint Repair service.

Broken concrete at joint edges creates a trip hazard and damages forklift tires.
Areas of crumbled concrete are removed and prepped for patching.
Belzona 4111 epoxy mortar is used to rebuild and feather edge joint damage.
The rebuilt concrete seam is sealed to keep out dirt and moisture.
Why Expansion Joints Fail
Expansion joints must move while resisting traffic, weather, water and chemical exposure. Seals can tear, harden or pull away from the joint walls. Trapped debris can restrict movement, while impact, chemical attack and freeze-thaw cycles break down surrounding concrete. As damage progresses, leaks and rough edges increase maintenance costs, compromise containment and disrupt operations.
How BIG Restores Damaged Joints
BIG removes failed sealant and unsound concrete, prepares the bonding surfaces and rebuilds damaged joint edges with materials such as Belzona 4111. Restoring sound edges provides a durable foundation for the new seal.
We install flexible sealing systems selected for joint movement, orientation, traffic, immersion and chemical exposure. Depending on the application, options may include Belzona 2211 and 2221 elastomers and Belzona 4511 or 4521 expansion-joint sealants. These materials bond to prepared surfaces and flex with the joint, helping resist the tearing and separation that lead to recurring leaks.
Joint repair can be combined with concrete restoration and protective coatings to address deterioration throughout the surrounding structure.

Why Hire BIG?
Successful joint repair depends on correct assessment, material selection and installation. BIG brings these capabilities together to help your maintenance team resolve the problem and protect the asset.
- Expert assessment of the whole repair. We evaluate the failed seal, surrounding concrete and operating conditions to recommend a practical solution suited to your facility.
- Durability built into the installation. Thorough surface preparation, sound concrete rebuilding and properly installed flexible seals help reduce repeat failures and future maintenance.
- Repair planning around your operations. We coordinate access, installation and curing with your maintenance schedule to minimize disruption and support a prompt return to service.
- Safety-focused industrial crews. OSHA 30-trained personnel, ISNetworld A+ status, RAVS Plus® verification and site-specific safety procedures support contractor qualification and safe project execution.
- One contractor for connected repairs. BIG can combine joint rebuilding and sealing with surrounding concrete repairs and protective coatings, reducing coordination demands on your team.
Expansion Joint Repair & Sealing Examples
Failed seals allow loss of containment in this water treatment plant.
New chemical-resistant elastomeric seals restore containment.
Chemical Containment Wall Joint Sealing
Caustic chemicals were seeping through deteriorated containment wall seals. BIG replaced the failed seals with chemically resistant Belzona elastomers, restoring containment, protecting surrounding areas and reducing the risk of recurring leaks and costly maintenance.
New backer rod is installed in the concrete seams of this tank.
Concrete joint seals replaced with flexible Belzona elastomer.
Flexible Joint Sealing Protects Wastewater Tanks
BIG installed backer rod and flexible Belzona elastomeric sealant in the wastewater tank’s concrete wall joints. The renewed seals accommodate movement and resist immersion and chemical exposure, helping prevent leaks, maintain containment and extend tank service life.
Deteriorated running track joints interfere with smooth operation.
Rebuilt concrete and new elastomeric seal of running track expansion joint.
Clarifier Track Joint Repair & Sealing
BIG rebuilt crumbled concrete with epoxy mortar and replaced the failed joint seals with flexible Belzona elastomer. The restored running surface reduces bumps and mechanical stress on the sludge collection system, supporting smoother operation and longer equipment life.
Cracked hazardous waste pad concrete compromised containment.
Restored hazardous waste pad with protective coating and crack sealing.
Hazardous Waste Pad Repair & Protection
BIG rehabilitated this worn, cracked hazardous waste collection pad with protective coating and Belzona elastomeric crack seals. Flexible seals accommodate movement while the coating protects against chemical exposure, helping extend concrete service life and reduce maintenance.
Areas of deteriorated floor joint are removed with a demo hammer.
Epoxy mortar is used for the feather-edged joint repair.
Warehouse Floor Repair for Safer Forklift Traffic
BIG removed damaged warehouse floor concrete and installed rapid-curing Belzona epoxy mortar, leveled with the surrounding floor. The smooth repairs help protect forklifts, keep loads stable and reduce product loss while improving safety and minimizing downtime.
Crumbled concrete is removed from the joint edges on this walkway.
Rebuilt concrete edges and new elastomeric seal.
Elevated Walkway Joint Repair for Safer Access
BIG restored a wastewater plant’s elevated walkway joints using Belzona epoxy mortar and a flexible elastomeric seal. The smooth repair reduces trip hazards, accommodates movement and helps prevent water intrusion, protecting the concrete and extending walkway service life.
