"As stewards of commercial structures, it is our paramount duty to uphold the integrity of our buildings, ensuring the safety and protection of both the people within and the property itself. In this commitment lies the foundation of trust and responsibility."

Protect Your People. Preserve Your Property. Perform at Your Best.

At Joint-Tek, we understand that when you're responsible for a commercial building, there’s no margin for error. The safety of your occupants, the integrity of your structure, and the reputation of your organization depend on smart, preventive management—and when it comes to expansion joints, the stakes are especially high.

Leaks, trip hazards, fire-rated barrier failures, and degraded joint systems don’t just cost money—they expose you to risk. That’s why Joint-Tek exists: to be your objective, go-to resource for understanding, maintaining, and managing your building’s expansion joint systems.

Annual inspections are the first line of defense against deterioration and liability. Expansion joint failures often go unnoticed—until damage is done. Our in-depth assessments uncover the issues others miss, including:

• Seal degradation and system separation
   
• Moisture intrusion and hidden leaks
   
• Fire barrier compromise
   
• ADA non-compliance or trip hazards
   
• Damage to underlying substrates or finishes
   

We use non-invasive testing tools and expert visual evaluations to document issues clearly giving you peace of mind and a plan of action.

Joint-Tek doesn’t sell products. We evaluate performance. Our detailed reports help you:

• Prioritize repair needs and maintenance schedules
   
• Understand the true condition of your joint systems
   
• Reduce downtime and disruption
   
• Plan budgets with accuracy
   
• Minimize tenant complaints and insurance exposure
   

This isn’t guesswork—it’s fact-based, building-specific insight you can act on.

Expansion joints aren’t just specialty materials—they require specialized installation skills. Most general contractors and maintenance crews simply don’t have the training to handle them correctly.

That’s why we connect building owners with certified expansion joint contractors—professionals who understand movement, waterproofing, fire protection, and envelope integration. These experts:

• Ensure your system performs as designed
   
• Prevent costly rework or hidden failures
   
• Understand the nuances of high-traffic, high-movement environments
   
• Coordinate with adjacent trades like roofing, waterproofing, flooring, and firestop teams
   

Qualified installers are hard to find—but worth every penny. And we know exactly where to look.

If you need replacement systems, product recommendations, or help sourcing a certified, manufacturer-approved installer, Encore Building Products is your partner. With nearly 40 years in the industry, Encore is trusted by facility owners, engineers, and public agencies across California.

Expansion joints are out of sight—but they should never be out of mind. A leaking plaza deck, a loose floor cover, or a failing fire barrier isn’t just a repair issue—it’s a risk. With Joint-Tek as your resource and Encore as your partner, you’re never alone in maintaining the safety, function, and long-term value of your property.
