Case Study: Commercial Concrete Spalling Repair in Queens
A commercial building in Queens, NY was experiencing significant concrete spalling on its exterior walkways and loading docks that’s why the team from The Mudjakcing Contractor was called in for concrete spalling repair. The property manager noticed deteriorating concrete, with visible cracks and crumbling edges, posing safety hazards for employees and customers.
The Mudjacking Contractor Team Diagnosis
Upon inspection, the Mudjacking Contractor team identified the root causes of the spalling: exposure to harsh weather conditions, heavy foot traffic, and the use of de-icing salts during winter months. The team determined that immediate repair was necessary to prevent further damage and maintain the building’s structural integrity.
The Solution
To address the concrete spalling, the Mudjacking Contractor team implemented the following steps:
- Preparation: The affected areas were thoroughly cleaned and prepared by removing loose debris and spalled concrete.
- Crack Repair: Any underlying cracks were repaired using high-strength epoxy to prevent further damage.
- Concrete Resurfacing: A durable concrete overlay was applied to the entire affected area, creating a smooth, even, and visually appealing surface.
- Sealing: The newly repaired surface was sealed with a high-quality concrete sealer to protect against future damage from moisture and de-icing salts.
The project was completed efficiently, minimizing disruption to the building’s operations. The property manager was pleased with the results, as the concrete spalling repair not only enhanced the building’s appearance but also improved safety and durability.
