Restoring Cracked and Spalled Concrete: A Permanent Solution

January 4, 2025

Maintain Your Floor's Beauty and Durability

Concrete floors are often subjected to wear and tear, which can lead to unsightly cracks and spalling. These imperfections not only detract from the aesthetic appeal of your floor but can also compromise its structural integrity. At Rock Solid Surfacing, we specialize in restoring damaged concrete with our proprietary polyurea crack repair and spalling restoration techniques. Here’s how we ensure your concrete floors look and perform better than ever.


Understanding Concrete Cracks and Spalling

Cracks in concrete can occur due to a variety of factors, such as settling, temperature fluctuations, or heavy loads. Left untreated, these cracks can expand, allowing moisture to penetrate and weaken the structure further. Spalling, on the other hand, results from the surface layer of concrete breaking away due to exposure to harsh conditions, de-icing salts, or rebar corrosion. Both issues can significantly impact the durability and appearance of your floor.

Addressing Spalling with Advanced Techniques

Spalling restoration requires a precise approach to ensure long-lasting results. At Rock Solid Surfacing, we use our polyurea repair product to fill the pores of the damaged area. This technique not only repairs the surface but also integrates with the existing concrete, creating a seamless and durable finish.


After the repair is complete, we sand the area smooth to eliminate any visible imperfections. This ensures that the final coating adheres perfectly, providing a flawless and attractive surface that will stand up to heavy use.
