The science behind our repair techniques
Concrete repairs
Decks, soffits, beams and columns carry the load. They are the structure. When concrete breaks away or steel starts to corrode, that load has nowhere safe to go. We cut back to sound material. We clean and treat the reinforcement. We rebuild with high-strength repair mortars. The aim is simple: restore continuity so the structure works as one again.
Crack injection and structural protection
Cracks are how water gets inside. Once water reaches the steel, corrosion follows. We inject low-viscosity resins to fill and bond cracks, sealing the concrete and returning it to monolithic behaviour. Where risk remains, we add corrosion inhibitors and galvanic anodes to slow the process down long after the repair is finished.
Deck coating systems
Car park floors take constant abuse. Tyres. Weather. De-icing salts. Our systems are built in layers. A primer to bond. A waterproof membrane to block water and chlorides. A wear coat designed for grip and durability. Together they act like a second skin, protecting the concrete beneath from what hits it every day.
Expansion joint replacement
Structures move. Temperature changes. Loads shift. Joints are there to absorb that movement. When they fail, water finds a direct route into the structure. We remove degraded joint systems and replace them with new mechanical and elastomeric joints, selected to suit the movement and loading of the structure. These systems are designed to stretch, compress and remain watertight while the building moves around them.
Anti-carbonation and protective coatings
Carbon dioxide changes concrete chemistry. It lowers alkalinity and leaves steel exposed. Our coatings form a barrier to carbon dioxide and water while still allowing moisture vapour to escape. The concrete stays protected without being sealed shut. Deterioration slows. Service life extends.
Line marking and bay reconfiguration
Lines fade. Layouts stop making sense. Confusion leads to damage and accidents. We resurface and re-mark bays and lanes using durable, high-visibility materials. When use changes, we redesign layouts to improve flow, safety and capacity.
Drainage improvement and ramp regrading
Standing water does damage quietly. It seeps in, freezes, thaws and accelerates failure. We improve drainage by installing new outlets, correcting falls and regrading ramps so water is pushed off the deck instead of soaking into it. Slip risks drop. Durability improves.
Lighting and safety upgrades
Visibility matters. Better lighting makes spaces safer and easier to use. We coordinate electrical upgrades, replacing outdated fittings with efficient LED systems. Where needed, we integrate CCTV, handrails and safety features to improve both security and user experience.
