Were you aware that concrete deterioration in buildings acts just like cancer does within the human body ... it is completely hidden in the early stages, only revealing that there is a serious problem after it has taken hold beneath the surface.

The first signs may be rust stains or small cracks - which then cause the deterioration to speed up at an alarming rate.

What causes concrete deterioration ?
There are a number of reasons ...  among them being poor construction work; being attacked by chlorides (salt) ... maybe it is due to the pH levels in the concrete altering over time. Whatever the cause, concrete deterioration is (a) a problem that will not disappear and (b) the sooner you treat it the better.

The solution to concrete deterioration begins by diagnosing the cause of the problem. At ASR we work in liason with consulting engineers to ensure that the reason behind the deterioration is correctly identified ... if this isn't done, any repairs would be based on guess work and would end up being nothing more than a band-aid job. In our experience, quick fixes prove far more costly in the long run.

Once we have established the proper cause of the problem all damaged, contaminated concrete is repaired and replaced using a specialised polymer modified water-based cementatious mortar. But this is just the first step we take. After the initial repair work is completed we then apply leading-edge products and systems to ensure the work is protected from further destructive elements.

To ensure that you are 100% confident in our ability to deliver the highest quality workmanship at a competitive price we are more than happy to talk with you about any deterioration problems you have, or suspect ... and we have many examples of our work and satisfied clients throughout the metro area to confirm the thoroughness which which we complete our work.
