Concrete Resurfacing
Over time, concrete finishes can start to diminish. This is one of the most common concrete repairs our contractors are hired to undertake. Although it isn’t always necessary, a complete resurface (opposed to a small patch repair) will ensure that the issue does not arise again in the near future.
Resurfacing of concrete uses a special bonding agent coupled with a thin cement-based overlay that is poured and smoothed over the existing structure. There are many benefits of resurfacing, including affordability, ease of use, durability and more.
Cost efficient and Affordable
Compared to other solutions for cracked or worn out concrete, resurfacing is much more cost-efficient. Resurfacing can cost significantly less than a full concrete replacement, without the need for additional structural work in the process. Both labour and materials costs are saved as well as improving the visual appearance of the building.
Ease of Application
The resurfacing process is easy to undertake and a relatively quick solution with long-term benefits. As our concrete repair contractors are highly experienced professionals, they will ensure that your building is left looking as good as new.
Durability
Concrete is one of the most popular building materials used in construction, thanks to it’s durable, hard-wearing nature. Concrete can cover a multitude of sins while strengthening and reinforcing structural faults with ease. What’s more, the lifespan of concrete is infinitely longer than other materials.
