Restoration
Concrete Restoration?
But concrete lasts forever. Not true. Concrete is subject to deterioration.
Two of the many causes of concrete deterioration are:
Materials
and Workmanship:
Concrete may experience deterioration caused by materials
used in the mix or by errors that occured in mixing, forming, or
placing.
Environmental
Factors:
Concrete is subject to deterioration caused by absorption
of moisture and thermal expansion and contraction. Extreme temperature
ranges can cause freeze-thaw cycles. Moisture absorbed by the concrete
expands and contracts with temperature changes and the resulting
mechanical action causes fractures and spalling. Airborne components,
such as carbon dioxide, can cause adverse chemical reactions which
can cause surface deterioration and ultimately expose the reinforcing
bar to the oxidation processes.
Without proper
concrete restoration, fractured or deteriorating concrete can compromise
structural integrity, pose serious liability issues, and create
other significant problems. The experienced
technicians at CRX, Inc. carefully initiate
a system of repair, removal, and replacement of deteriorated (spalled)
concrete, which rehabilitates the structure and maintains its structural
integrity. Our proven concrete restoration solutions include the
following:
