The structural issues caused by water problems can be repaired by using epoxy injection along with reinforcement or without reinforcement.

Injecting epoxy
We deploy our most experienced and skilled professionals for injecting epoxy as per the requirement of this process. Before they fix structural problems by repairing the crack with injecting epoxy they will have to vacuum the crack or flush it with water to remove any kind of contamination or dirt from it. Then the surface of the crack is sealed by using an epoxy gel to prevent running out of the epoxy injected into it. Then they will inject the epoxy after installing injecting and venting ports. In order to avoid widening of the crack high pressure is not used while injecting epoxy. The seal on the surface and ports are removed, after completing the process of epoxy injection, by using the concrete matrix to flush the surface.
Epoxy concrete repair in worse condition
If structural problems are beyond the capability of epoxy injection then our epoxy concrete repair team will remove the entire concrete that is making the structure unsound so that it can be replaced with new concrete. But before removing the concrete they take proper care to ensure the stability of the structure by using different methods. in order to make such concrete repairs successful, they will have to remove every loses concrete from the crack and around the bars so that at least inch thick fresh concrete can be reinforced around the bar to recover the strength of the structure. The steel bar will be cleaned to remove rust and other corrosive materials from it if any.
Proper repair of a damaged structure
While completing the repair work of damaged structure, its edges should be cut at right-angle to give it a proper look. At any cost, feather edges should be avoided as it is necessary to keep the configuration of the repaired area as simple as a square.
Strengthening the repaired structure
If the repaired structure needs additional strengthening then our professionals will use various techniques for this purpose like reinforcing the concrete externally or increasing the size of concrete member etc. Some kind of flexible reinforcement like glass fibers or carbon fibers can be used to complete the task of external reinforcing.
