ROPE ACCESS CONCRETE REPAIRS
If you suspect the reinforced concrete in your building or structure is beginning to degrade, it’s vital to arrange professional diagnosis and repair solutions promptly. If left untreated, minor cracks can lead to serious structural damage – and seriously expensive repairs.
Don’t let complex access issues delay these important repairs. Gecko uses innovative rope access techniques to carry out concrete maintenance and repairs on high rise buildings and tall structures across Brisbane and Sunshine Coast, even those with significant height access challenges.
Concrete Cancer
Concrete cancer occurs when the reinforcing steel (the rebar) within a concrete slab is exposed to air or water and starts to rust. The condition is not exclusive to buildings and structures in Queensland; however, the humid subtropical climate can increase vulnerability – particularly for buildings located in proximity to coastal spray zones.
Here are some common signs there’s a problem.
- Concrete spalling – cracking or crumbling
- Rust stains or bubbling on the concrete or cement render
- Membrane leaks
- Concrete expansion
