The Problem: Why Your Concrete Needs Protection

The concrete around your property is constantly exposed to threats:

  • Moisture Ingress: Rain and groundwater can penetrate unsealed concrete, causing it to weaken and crumble over time, especially with freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Ugly Stains: Oil, grease, rust, and other spills are easily absorbed, creating permanent and unsightly stains that are difficult to remove.
  • UV Damage: The sun’s ultraviolet rays can fade and discolour your concrete, making it look old and neglected.
  • Abrasive Wear: Heavy foot traffic and vehicle movement can wear down the surface, leading to flaking and dusting.

Our Solution: Advanced Concrete Sealing for Lasting Durability

Our process for sealing concrete is designed for maximum effectiveness and longevity. We use industry-leading sealants tailored to the specific type and location of your concrete.

  1. Deep Cleaning & Preparation: We start by professionally cleaning the concrete surface to remove all dirt, stains, and efflorescence. Proper preparation is essential for the sealant to adhere correctly.
  2. Crack & Joint Repair: We repair any existing cracks or joints to ensure the surface is sound before sealing.
  3. Application of Premium Sealant: We apply a high-quality sealant, such as a penetrating or acrylic sealer, to create a protective layer that repels water, oil, and chemicals. The sealant also blocks UV rays, preventing fading.
  4. Enhance Aesthetics: Our sealers can leave a natural finish or a glossy, "wet look" finish, enhancing the colour and texture of your concrete and giving it a brand-new appearance.

Concrete Cancer Caused by Water Ingress

When water gets into concrete, it can rust the steel reinforcement inside. As the steel expands, the concrete cracks, flakes and breaks away. This is commonly known as concrete cancer. The damage you can see is often only part of the problem. The water that caused it may have been travelling through the slab or wall for some time.

We investigate the source of the water, remove the damaged concrete, treat the rusted steel and rebuild the area. To stop moisture coming back through the concrete, we then apply a negative pressure membrane. This is a waterproofing system applied on the inside face of the slab or wall, designed to hold back water even when it is pushing through from the other side.

The photos below show a typical Eastern Suburbs job: concrete cancer exposed, the negative pressure membrane applied to the floor and wall junction, and the finished room once the work was complete.
