ONE JOINT. SEVERAL CONNECTIONS.
Plan the Joint Before Nearby Work Limits Access
Expansion joints allow parts of a building to move. Their paths can cross floors, walls, decks and finishes, so the connections need planning. If the locations, system or access remain unclear, other work can limit the team’s options.
Early review keeps the joint path visible before access narrows.
What becomes harder when the scope waits
→ Joint locations or types may differ between drawings.
→ Connections may still need details. Early review also helps close those gaps.
→ When measurements arrive late, planning gets harder.
→ Access can shrink when nearby crews start work.
COMMERCIAL INSTALLATION + REPAIR
Floors, Walls, Decks and Structural Transitions
PSI installs and repairs commercial expansion joints, including interior joint covers. The specified system and site conditions guide the work, so share both before pricing.
Floors
Review the floor joint locations in the plans before installation.
Walls
Include interior wall joint covers as well as the finishes around them.
Decks
Plan deck joints with nearby work so the installation follows the project details.
Structural Transitions
Check where the joint changes direction so movement details stay connected.
FOLLOW THE JOINT PATH
Plan the Joint Details Before Work Starts
Follow each joint from start to finish so the system, opening sizes and connections match the plans. Then confirm access and timing.
Locate + Define
Before pricing, identify each joint’s location, system type, opening width and expected movement. Also, include the relevant specifications.
Plan the Connections
Check corners and changes in direction as well as nearby finishes. Also, flag related waterproofing or sealant work.
Plan the Work Order
Confirm site measurements before scheduling installation. Then review access, traffic limits and the timing of nearby work.

BEFORE YOU REQUEST A BID
Commercial Expansion Joint Questions
Review the plans and site conditions before defining the scope. These answers also explain what to include in your request.
What is the difference between an expansion joint & a typical sealant joint?
Expansion joints provide planned gaps so building sections can move. Some use sealant, but a standard sealant joint cannot replace every specified expansion joint system.
Does PSI handle installation and repair?
Yes. PSI installs and repairs expansion joints in commercial floors, walls and decks. We also handle interior joint covers and the connections between building sections.
When should PSI receive the documents?
Send them early, before nearby finishes or other trades limit access. That also leaves time to check joint sizes and connections.
What should I share to start bid review?
Start with the location, bid date, schedule and scope through Contact Us. Then have plans, joint details, specifications and bid updates ready for follow-up. Also, include quantities, joint sizes and repair photos when available.
