Should You Repair Expansion Joints Before Selling Your Home?

3 min read

If you're preparing to sell your Houston home, don't overlook your driveway's expansion joints. Rotted, missing, or weed-filled joints are one of the first things buyers and home inspectors notice.

What Inspectors Look For

Home inspectors flag damaged expansion joints as a potential water infiltration concern. Water seeping under your driveway can erode soil and affect your foundation — a red flag for any buyer.

The ROI of Repair

Expansion joint repair with Trim-A-Slab typically costs $200–$600 for a standard driveway. The ROI comes from avoiding inspection flags, improving curb appeal, and showing buyers the home is well-maintained.

Pair With Pressure Washing

For maximum impact, combine joint repair with driveway pressure washing. The one-two punch of clean concrete and sharp, new joints makes your driveway look brand new.
