All of these services can play a part when servicing the life of your structure.

Why concrete needs repairing?

Despite being perceived as strong and durable, concrete is actually very susceptible to outside influences. Other than physical strains such as subsidence, root damage or impact damage, the main problem in keeping concrete structures in good health is water.

Crack repairs are often the quickest and cheapest option for many businesses who want to retain the lifespan of their structures.

The main causes of concrete structure degradation

  1. Carbonation – The process of chemical reactions taking place where areas are exposed to the elements.
  2. Chloride – Usually from sea water causing an autocatalytic process to take place, not on the concrete but on the reinforcing steel that is being used.
  3. Distilled water – In the form of steam, distilled water can wash out calcium content in concrete, leaving it in a brittle condition.

Without adequate waterproofing and regular concrete repair, concrete buildings can degrade far quicker than brick or composite structures.

Requirements:

We have recently carried out essential concrete repair and maintenance to the reinforced concrete chimney at Eastcroft Incinerator Nottingham on behalf of Waste Recycling Group.

The planned shut down works involved removing the existing smoke band repair work and the application of new anti-carbonation coatings to the chimney.

The chimney required remedial concrete repair and stabilisation through drilling and pinning of the external concrete flutes.

The works were completed to the satisfaction of the client on time and within budget.

Concrete repair solution:

A full scaffold was erected around the smoke band to contain all materials from the smoke band removal.

The concrete was repaired and an application of anti-carbonation coating was used to extend the life of the structure for another 10 years.

We have worked with various steeplejack companies in the past and our expertise in the field of concrete repair and specialist coating systems proved invaluable on this project..
