Crumbling concrete surfaces
Do you have a crack in a wall? Or a floor fissure that seems impossible to fill? Before you call an outside contractor for repairs, browse 3M's assortment of do-it-yourself concrete maintenance and repair products!
Cracks and spalls (chips) in concrete floors and sidewalks are risky business. Not only do they detract from your facility's appearance and investment value, if neglected, cracks can severely damage the floor, creating a workplace safety hazard. Poorly maintained surfaces will inevitably need to be replaced, but who has the time - or budget - to stay on top of concrete repair and maintenance?
With 3M's conveniently packaged and dispensed concrete adhesives and sealants, repairs are now as simple as pulling the trigger on a caulk gun.
Fix it Quick Delegating the repair job to your in-house maintenance crew will save you money as well as time. Repairs can be made whenever it is convenient for the employees working in the area. With 3M's fast-setting formulations, you can repair a floor over a lunch break, and send workers back into the area within the hour. These quick-setting repair materials harden in as little as five minutes. Within fifteen minutes, a fork lift can drive over the repair without damaging it.
Achieve Professional Results Because self-leveling urethane fill material expands and contracts with the surface changes caused by temperature fluctuations, urethane repairs outlast fixes made with concrete.
Long-lasting and cost effective, urethane repair material:
Flows freely to completely fill cavity
Sets smoothly for a flat surface
May be sanded when dry to remove rough edges
Regular maintenance with a concrete repair material will protect and preserve floors, loading docks, sidewalks and parking areas. Repairing the damage yourself will allow you to fix problems quickly, and help to reduce your overall maintenance costs.
