What actually shortens joint life in Cypress.
Older established neighbourhoods have the most overlays, and overlays are why a joint that was resealed two years ago can already be splitting. Sealant only performs when it is bonded to sound, clean, textured concrete on both walls and to nothing at all underneath. Layer it onto old material and the new bead is only ever as good as the crumbling thing it was stuck to. In Cypress that shows up on the decks around Sorrento, Cypress Village and Lincoln Park, which is where most of our Orange County work starts: a joint that still looks continuous from the patio door and is already open when you kneel on it.
