Joint, Spall, and Crack Repair

Concrete floors are rarely, if ever, perfect. Over time, exposure to heavy vehicle traffic, industrial equipment, tracked-in road salts, or extreme temperatures can cause concrete to crack and spall (break off in small pieces). 

Unprotected joints and imperfections in concrete often lead to the breakdown of floors. Not only is this kind of concrete damage unsightly, but it also represents a trip hazard and a liability to property owners. 

Concrete repair tips:

• Prior to polishing or installation of epoxy coatings, all cracks and spalls must be properly repaired. Failure to do so can lead to the failure of the flooring system
• Always blow out dust and debris from cracks
• Cracks and spall areas should be clean and dry before they are filled with repair materials
• For larger cracks, use grinder, saw, or hammer and chisel to widen the area for better filling; the repair depth should be at least half an inch 

Without the proper repair material and procedures, the repair will fail leading to a more costly repair as well as additional downtime. Jon-Don highly recommends that all concrete repair work be performed by a properly trained concrete professional.
