Concrete joint sealing fills the joints in a slab so water and road salt stay out. Joints are planned cracks that let concrete move through Utah freeze and thaw. When the old sealant fails, melt water and salt run in and work on the joint edges all winter. We seal and repair joints in warehouse, shop and showroom floors, plus sidewalks, walkways, plazas, entries and loading areas.
Complete Concrete Coatings is licensed and insured and has coated Utah concrete since 2005 from our Centerville shop. Expansion joint repair and expansion joint replacement are both part of our commercial work. Caulking around windows, panels and building joints is a separate line, our building and window sealants. At home, our residential concrete repair line fills and seals leaky slab joints on driveways and garage floors.

Salt Lake City's average January day runs from a low near 24 degrees to a high near 39. Melt water in an open joint can freeze overnight and thaw again by afternoon. Ice is about 9 percent less dense than water, so it takes more room and pries at the joint edges. UDOT brines state roads before storms and salts them during, so entries and parking decks take road salt all winter.
Concrete joint repair starts with what each joint does. Isolation joints, also called expansion joints, keep a slab apart from walls, columns and footings. They move, so they take a flexible sealant instead of a hard filler. Joints in an industrial floor under heavy traffic need a filler that supports their edges, or the edges spall.
Expansion joint sealing starts by cutting out the old sealant and debris, then cleaning the walls to dry, sound concrete. A closed-cell backer rod about an eighth of an inch wider than the joint gets rolled in without stretching. The rod sets the depth and keeps sealant off the joint bottom, so it bonds to the side walls only. The concrete joint sealant then goes in at the depth the manufacturer sets, about half the joint's width.
Indoor floor joints under hard forklift wheels get a semi-rigid filler instead, which supports the edges. In a saw-cut joint up to 2 inches deep, it fills the full depth with no foam rod. The filler goes in a little high and gets shaved flush once it sets. Before a warehouse or shop epoxy coating goes down, the joints get repaired along with the cracks and spalls.
Concrete joint repair is priced by the job, starting with the length, width and depth of the joints. Condition is next, since old sealant has to come out and chipped edges need repair before anything goes in. Joint type matters too, since forklift aisles take a semi-rigid filler and moving joints take a flexible sealant. Phasing adds time when part of the building has to keep running.
Every bid starts with a free estimate at your property, where we measure the joints and check the old sealant. Then you get a written number for the system that fits each joint. Commercial work runs from Ogden south through Salt Lake County, out of our Centerville shop. Call (801) 347-4518 Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, and the office will set a time.

(801) 347-4518From the first call to the cured floor, here is how it goes.
Tell us what the floor, deck or slab needs. A few photos help. The office answers Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, and gets you on the schedule.
We come out, measure the surface and check the concrete for cracks, moisture and old coatings. You get a written price for the system that fits.
We grind or sandblast the slab, repair cracks and spalling, then build the coating in layers. Most garage floors are done in 1 day. Decks take longer.
Each layer cures before the next one. We tell you when to walk on it and when to park on it, and we go over the care and the manufacturer's warranty.
Common questions about joint sealing across the Wasatch Front. Don't see yours? Give us a call and ask.
A garage floor coating from Complete Concrete Coatings starts with diamond grinding and crack repair. Then comes an epoxy base with color flake, sealed under a clear polyaspartic top coat. Most Centerville area garages are finished in 1 day, with free estimates.
Metallic epoxy flooring puts metallic pigment in clear epoxy, then moves it while it is wet. The result is a marble style floor with veins and depth. We install it in garages, basements and commercial rooms across the Wasatch Front.
Basement floor coatings bond an epoxy system to a ground down basement slab. We moisture test the concrete first, then finish in flake, metallic or solid color under a clear top coat.
Concrete resurfacing repairs your existing slab, then covers it with a bonded overlay or coating system. You pick the color and texture, and a clear top coat locks it in. We resurface porches, patios, driveways, walkways and steps across the Wasatch Front.
We repair cracked, spalling and pitted concrete on driveways, garage floors, patios and shop slabs across the Wasatch Front. Damaged areas get cut back and filled, the surface gets ground flat, then a coating or sealer protects the repair.
Waterproof deck coatings seal plywood and concrete decks against snow, meltwater and sun. We inspect the deck, lay a rubberized membrane, add your color and finish with a sealing top coat. Slip-resistant textures available. Free estimates across the Wasatch Front.
The company started in 2005 and is still family owned and run. The crews have ground, repaired and coated Utah garages, decks and driveways for over 20 years. That is a lot of freeze-thaw winters and salted slabs.
Coatings fail at the prep, so we diamond grind or sandblast every slab, fix the cracks and spalling, and test for moisture before any color goes down. Every product goes on to the manufacturer's specifications.
A worn porch, a salt-damaged driveway or a stained garage floor rarely needs a tear-out. We repair the surface and coat, resurface or seal it. You keep the slab and spend the money on the surface you see.
Our shop sits at 452 N 1100 W in Centerville, so Davis County, Salt Lake City and Ogden are short drives. Call and the office sets a time to come look at the slab. Estimates are free and happen at the property.

They did a great job on the epoxy, the garage floor looks great, and the service was awesome! They got me scheduled quick, showed up exactly on time and got the work done when they said it would be done.
We had a spalling problem on driveway due to road salt. Work was performed on schedule and budget in a professional manner. And it looks terrific as well.
The guys knocked out my garage floor in 1 day! Concrete repair and high end epoxy at a fair price.
A garage floor that dusts and stains, a porch that is flaking, a deck that leaks, a shop floor that needs to hold up? Call or send the form and we will come look at the surface and price the job. The estimate is free.
