Remediation

Concrete Repair

Concrete repair refers to the process of fixing or restoring concrete structures that have been damaged or have deteriorated over time. There are many reasons why a building may need concrete repair, including:

• Age: Over time, concrete can crack, crumble, and deteriorate due to exposure to the elements and normal wear and tear
• Poor quality concrete: If the concrete used in a building is of poor quality, it may be more prone to damage and deterioration
• Corrosion: Reinforcing steel bars (rebar) in concrete can corrode over time, leading to weakness in the concrete structure
• Settlement: If the ground beneath a concrete structure settles or shifts, it can cause cracks and other damage to the concrete.

It is important to repair concrete when it is damaged to maintain the structural integrity of the building and to prevent further deterioration. If left unrepaired, damaged concrete can lead to serious safety issues and can be costly to repair in the long run.
