Long-lasting Stability
Reliable Concrete Structural Repair
Solid structures deteriorate over time from the effects of water, environmental pressure, or extreme weight. Concrete structure repair done right and on time helps preserve long-term safety. Being able to make an on-time and right repair of your concrete structure, will help prevent damage to buildings, floors, industrial plants, and bridges. St. St. Louis concrete repair projects benefit significantly from expert concrete structural repair services. Whether you are repairing a sidewalk or a parking lot, concrete repair is essential for extending the life of your concrete features and knowing they are safe and ready for use.
Roka de-mold is an oil-based shutter/mold release agent that provides clean, fast, and easy striking to formwork. It is suitable for hot and tropical climatic conditions.
Roka Epo Bond is a two-component epoxy resin-based adhesive for internal or external bonding of renderings.
Roka Epoxy Mortar 550 is a thixotropic, structural 2-component adhesive and repair mortar, based on a combination of epoxy resins and special fillers.
Roka Fiber is an extremely fine, monofilament polypropylene additive fiber to reduce the occurrence of plastic shrinkage and plastic settlement cracking
Roka Inject EP is a two-component, low-viscosity grout based on epoxy resins and hardeners. It is a highly fluid grout used for injection into cracks in masonry and concrete.
Roka Inject PU is a solvent-free, polyurethane injection foam that, when used with an accelerator, is designed to fill joints, cracks, and voids in concrete to stop water leakage.
Roka Latex is a synthetic resin polymer that is supplied as a ready-to-use liquid. It is designed to improve the tensile and flexural qualities of site-batched cementitious mortars and slurries.

Causes of Concrete Structural Damage
Concrete damage can arise from different internal and external causes. It is attributed to a variety of reasons such as embedded steel corrosion, shrinkage cracks, sulfate attack, poor end joints, and freeze thawing. If left unchecked, the loss of load-bearing capacity of the buildings due to these problems is undoubted. Anti-climb security devices are another way of denying individuals from attempting to access your barriers are public buildings, to cut down on maintenance costs and also prohibits the form of damage to otherwise new concrete. This is the result of structural repairs designed to cure the problem rather than disguising the symptoms, making proper concrete structural repair critical in such cases.
Techniques for Structural Repair
Repair techniques are selected based on the type and intensity of the damage. These techniques could be epoxy injection for cracks, patch repairs with polymer-modified mortars, fiber wrapping, and bonding steel plates. Proper surface preparation is essential prior to use and full curing will ensure maximum bond strength. Jacketing or load distribution methods can be employed for more extensive structural rehabilitation works, especially in larger-scale concrete structural repair projects.
Importance of Timely Concrete Repair
Postponing the inevitable concrete structural repair may result in more expensive restoration or even replacement. A stitch in time not only saves the hazards of repair but also adds to the performance and the value of the structure. For commercial, high rise residential or infrastructure applications, accurate repair is essential to maintain performance and meet safety standards. Engaging timely concrete structural repair ensures long-term durability and avoids unexpected failures.
