ConcreteRepairs

Given the significant number of concrete structures that surround us today and the culture our asset owners impose on our industry, the remedial requirement is an ever-increasing program which is unlikely to change.

We at DWG strive to provide long-term concrete repairs and concrete restoration to failing infrastructure across the UK, using innovative and reliable methods using both expanding and non-expanding resins.

Deterioration of concrete is primarily due to:

• Chemical degradation, e.g., chemical exposure, alkali aggregate reactions
• Corrosion of the reinforcement steel, e.g., carbonation, chlorides, stray electrical current
• Mechanical attack, e.g., impact, overloading, soil movement, water ingress
• Physical damage, e.g., freeze/thaw reaction, thermal movements between interfaces, shrinkage, abrasion, and wear
• Underlying contributors, e.g., poor construction, design faults, lack of maintenance
