Concrete Maintenance: What to Know

Concrete is the world's most used material. China is responsible for half the world's production and consumption, with over 20 billion tons used globally every year.
Businesses the world over turn to concrete for its incredibly high compression strength. If you're looking for your concrete building to stand proud for as long as the Pantheon in Rome (Built in 120 AD!), then give some thought to regular cleaning protocol.
Removing dirt frequently will preempt the buildup of any grime that may stain your concrete in an unsightly manner if left unattended for too long.
Sealing any concrete joints is an important way of keeping out water – which can lead to nasty surface cracks.
Regularly sealing concrete is the best way to keep your concrete looking pristine. This will not only repel water and create a dust-proof surface – but it also provides resistance to abrasion (wear and tear) and UV sunlight.

Repair And Maintenance Methods Include:

Our Repair Process Includes

Resurfacing

This involves overlaying slabs with a new surface. It’s as simple as that. Of course, this is only a solution for repairing superficial issues like declaration, chippings, or spalling.

Mudjacking

This is a way to repair the root of the problem of your uneven concrete. What happens is a concrete slurry is pumped under the slab to fill voids and raise the slab back to its original position. Unfortunately, it doesn’t solve the problem, and it can cause concrete to compress more, and you’ll be back with the same issue in a year or two.

Epoxy Repair

By injecting epoxy into your concrete, you can repair the problem cosmetically. It will seal the concrete and reduce the emergence of cracks. This will not resolve the underlying causes of your uneven concrete.

Grinding

Concrete grinding is a great way to repair uneven sidewalks. Again, it does not address the cause of the problem, and you’re bound to see the situation develop again soon.

Foam Leveling

For a more long-lasting and budget-friendly repair and leveling method, foam leveling won’t let you down. Injection foam leveling addresses the root cause of uneven concrete and uses durable enough materials to withstand years of harsh conditions.
