Concrete Repair & Coatings
Reinforced concrete is one of the most well-established and durable of building materials but like masonry, it can deteriorate under attack from a number of external elements. We have developed our concrete repair and coating services to address concrete cracking, spalling and ultimately, concrete failure in order to radically improve the life expectancy of structures.
Failure of Reinforced Concrete
Where concrete cracking is evident in instances other than impact damage, then concrete repairs will usually extend to include the repair and protection of steel reinforcement which can corrode for a number of reasons, most commonly chloride attack, or carbonation.
With the ability to undertake a comprehensive range of tests to properly diagnose the cause and extent of concrete failure, we can offer a number of structural concrete repair solutions to include the use of, lightweight concrete repair mortars, high strength repair mortars, rapid strength concretes and low/high viscosity epoxy resins for the injection of cracks.
Other Concrete Repairs
Not only can we repair most elements of a structure but we can enhance the appearance and performance by the use of specialist coatings such as anti carbonation or elastomeric coatings, waterproof and flexi- coatings, anti-slip products and silanes. Specific products are chosen or combined to not only overcome the initial failures but to also increase the expected life-span and to enhance the structure’s appearance.
