Concrete Repair and Coatings... what are these products and why do we need them?

There are numerous factors that can have a negative effect on the resistance and performance of reinforced concrete, even if the concrete is designed and installed to a high standard.

It's therefore important to have access to suitable concrete repair products to return the concrete to it's intended performance level, as well as coatings to protect it in the long-term.

🏚 Concrete Repair Mortars: Required due to natural structural defects caused by concrete shrinkage, building settlement, poor installation of the concrete elements, damage caused by water ingress or corrosion of the internal steel reinforcement.

💪 Epoxy Coatings for Concrete: Provide a durable protective surface that also acts as a low-maintenance and visually attractive finish to the surface of the concrete. They also allow for the speedy application of further coatings, membranes, levelling compounds and screeds.

👷 Concrete Injection Resins: An effective method of repairing defects in reinforced concrete and sealing leaks in a wide range of scenarios.

We stock and supply a wide choice of concrete repair and coating products including concrete repair mortars, epoxy coatings, and injection resins and accessories. This includes products from:
> ARDEX UK
> Natural Cement Distribution Ltd
> Newton Waterproofing Systems
> Tradecc
