Concrete repair

Concrete Floor Repair & Resurfacing

A floor is only as good as the substrate under it. We fix the concrete first — crack-stitching, spall repair, joint reinstatement and localised or full resurfacing — so the finish on top lasts.

Where this works

  • Cracked / spalled industrial slabs
  • Failed movement / saw-cut joints
  • Damp or laitance-damaged concrete
  • Screed leveling before a decorative finish
  • Full slab resurfacing with polymer-modified mortar

How we install it

  1. 1
    Diagnose first

    Not every crack is structural. We check whether it's a static shrinkage crack, a live movement joint, or something loading-related — the repair depends entirely on which.

  2. 2
    Cut & clean

    Cracks are diamond-cut into a wide V, blown clean and vacuumed. Loose spalls are cut back to sound concrete.

  3. 3
    Fill & stitch

    Structural cracks get resin injection and rebar stitching perpendicular to the crack. Non-structural cracks are filled with polymer-modified mortar or resin mortar.

  4. 4
    Prime & resurface

    The full slab is primed and a self-levelling underlayment or trowel mortar re-establishes level ready for the next finish.

Common pitfalls we prevent

Filling a live movement joint with rigid mortar — it always cracks again; solved with semi-rigid polyurea
Skimming over laitance — the whole finish delaminates; solved by grinding to sound concrete
Ignoring damp before resurfacing — cured with a moisture-mitigating epoxy DPM

Frequently asked

Do I need to fix the concrete before a resin or microcement floor?+

Yes. Cracks telegraph through decorative finishes if they're not stabilised, and any laitance or unsound patches must be ground off first.

Can you level a very uneven floor?+

Yes — from a 2 mm skim up to 40 mm in a single pour with polymer-modified SLU. Anything thicker needs a bonded screed layer first.

How long before I can install on top?+

Most repair mortars accept a decorative finish in 24–72 hours. SLU is walkable in 2–4 hours and coatable in 24–48.
