Concrete repair
When concrete starts to show signs of cracking, rust stains, or spalling, it is a clear indication that repair is needed. One of the most common causes of spalling is the corrosion of steel reinforcement bars within the concrete. If left untreated over time, the damage will likely worsen, leading to significantly higher repair costs. Often, the deterioration can be more advanced beneath the apparent signs on the surface. Concrete cancer spreads along the steel rebar in each direction, and it is nearly impossible to know the extent until the concrete is chiselled away.
Visual signs of concrete cancer:
- Flaking, spalling concrete
- Rust Stains leaking out of the concrete
- Bubbling, blistering, and plating of concrete render
- Leaks in overhead concrete surfaces
- Rusting and exposed reinforcement push concrete loose
Several factors can contribute to concrete damage, including:
- Environmental conditions
- Lack of proper protection or maintenance
- Design flaws or issues during the initial construction
