SlabGasket Expansion Joint Replacement - Free Sample Pack

Came with a variety of gaskets so I could select the correct size. I purchased the actual item through Home Depot and installation was relatively easy. Would definitely recommend this over liquid expansion joint compound.

I first got the sample kit, which is a great idea the company came up with. They send you samples of tubing that are different sizes and depths. I was able to find the exact size I needed for our driveway. I took out all the old and replaced with this product. It was easy to install and gave our driveway a super clean/sleek look. I wished all home projects were this easy to do and had such good results.

Small, roughly 2" samples in all of the widths mentioned in the description. Good idea to get this before you decide to purchase the product since it's supposed to be a very snug fit and simply measuring can be imprecise. I thought that my gap had a bit of variance and would need to splice two widths together, but using the sample proved that the 7/8" was compressible enough to handle the whole span. Just use a mallet to hammer it in and a screwdriver to pry it back up along the length of the gap to check the fit. Dinged them a star as the samples came in a flat rate USPS box which clearly stated that the shipping cost was a few dollars less than what they're claiming here. Seems like they could have been more forthright that they were adding a handling charge or material cost on top, especially as this is just promotional material for their product.

This product allowed me to see exactly which widths were needed to repair the gaps in the concrete driveway once all the wood rotted away. It allowed me to judge what I would need with the samples labelled with different sizes, it showed me how well the actual full length rubber strips would work, these are excellent sample pieces.

Samples didn't fit expansion joint.

I need to replace rotted wooden expansion joints in my driveway and 300 ft. of sidewalk. This product seemed exactly what I needed. The product does what it says. But the spaces where I need to install them isn't uniform in size! I have no idea how much of which size I would need and how much cutting and splinting I'd have to do! It would be nice if the material was a bit more flexible so I could compact it or not as the space I'm filling changes. I'm not willing to chisel out the cement to make one size fit in all the spaces. So..... Back to the search for a solution.

The product is very well-made. The installation is easy, especially if you use the guidelines of soaping up the edge and slicing the undercarriage were needed for any narrowing of your gap. My 1 1/8 ” product covered very nicely and with the soap and slice technique, I was able to finish the last 5 feet that was only 1 inch gap because of the bad pouring of cement 40 years ago. Thanks!

They look and work great. Takes a little prep work, not super easy but worth the work. Get the hollow ones as they install easier and will give a better fit. I ordered from the manufacturer as they sell it buy the foot.
