Concrete spalling refers to the flaking, chipping, or crumbling of the surface layer of concrete. It often results from moisture infiltration, poor installation, or corrosion of steel reinforcements, compromising both the appearance and structural integrity of the surface.
Signs of spalling include visible cracks, peeling or flaking surfaces, uneven textures, and areas where the concrete appears to crumble. It’s essential to address these issues early to prevent further damage.
Moisture: Water seeps into the concrete, causing damage through freeze-thaw cycles.
Corrosion: Rusting of steel reinforcements inside the concrete expands and leads to cracking.
Installation Errors: Improper curing, low-quality materials, or inadequate techniques can cause premature deterioration.
We use advanced techniques and top-grade materials tailored to the specific needs of each project. Our goal is to provide long-lasting solutions that restore your concrete’s beauty and strength.
Yes, spalling can pose safety risks by creating uneven surfaces, tripping hazards, and potential structural instability. Addressing spalling promptly ensures your property remains safe for use.
Repairing spalled concrete involves addressing the damaged areas while preserving the overall structure, making it a cost-effective and faster solution. Replacement involves removing and reinstalling the entire concrete slab, which is more time-consuming and expensive.
