Folks, I have seen some beautiful concrete overlays and sprayed on decking. I just had an inquiry from “Ryan”, who was asking about the use of SlabGasket in conjuction with the above. His question is “I wanted to find out if this product could be used with some of the concrete overlay or spray on decking used around pools? Would those coatings be put on first and then the slabgasket or could you use the slabgasket then put down the coating so there could be one uniform surface?”
This is a good question, and most of us need to ask more questions when we hire a contractor to do any home repair or remodeling job. How many times do we have to settle for less than we expected? I answered Ryan this way:
Ryan, thank you for your interest in SlabGasket. Here are my experiences so far...

SlabGasket Expansion Joint Replacement Products now include two new sizes in both gray and almond. One of them is 5/8″ wide at the top and the other is 1/2″ wide at the top, but shorter than our original 1/2″ STANDARD version. The shape is very short, about 1″ tall. These sizes have a small space through the center, to allow for a little compression during installation. You will find a sample of each in our current sample pack. The previous solid versions have been discontinued.

An Expansion Joint is used when a driveway is poured to allow for expansion of the concrete and help keep the driveway from cracking. Until recently, the expansion joint was generally a 1×4 board used with wooden stakes to frame around the concrete pour areas. The construction crew nails a frame of wood and pours the concrete inside the frame to form a sidewalk or driveway. After the concrete dries, the outside boards and stakes are removed. The inside boards and stakes remain as expansion joints. Recently, true expansion joints have been replaced by control joints. A control joint is designed to control where the expanding driveway will crack. In this case, the boards used are 1×2 or shorter, and a frame is staked and nailed together...
