Center or Complex Resealing & Maintenance
Ward Dawson McClain's team of experienced facility managers can make sure all your storefronts, coping and sidewalk joints are sealed every year so your building stays on the inside and looking good on the outside. Our Resealing & Maintenance Service includes not only resealing once a year but also removing sealants and resealing all joints once every 3 years.

The Importance of Center or Complex Resealing & Maintenance in Atlanta, GA
Center and complex resealing is a critical part of protecting commercial buildings from long-term water intrusion and exterior deterioration. Storefront joints, coping seams, and sidewalk expansion joints naturally shift over time due to temperature changes, weather exposure, and everyday building movement. If these joints are not properly sealed and maintained, water can penetrate the structure—leading to interior leaks, damaged finishes, mold risk, and costly repairs. Consistent resealing helps keep your building protected on the inside while maintaining a clean, professional appearance on the outside.
In a market like Atlanta, GA, regular resealing is especially valuable due to frequent rain, humidity, and wide temperature swings that speed up sealant breakdown. Keeping resealing on a predictable schedule preserves curb appeal, helps prevent tenant complaints, and protects long-term asset value. Instead of waiting for visible damage, proactive resealing helps keep your property operating smoothly and avoids costly repairs caused by neglected joints.
