This damage makes it difficult for the various types of vehicles that typically operate in industrial, commercial and logistics facilities, etc., to move around.
These irregularities can also cause workplace accidents, leading to legal complications.
Why potholes appear in concrete floors
Like other structural concrete elements, flooring can also develop problems.
Most of these require immediate rehabilitation and are caused by the following factors:
Abrasion and water absorption
Water is one of the elements that causes the most deterioration in concrete, so the hygrothermal performance of construction materials must be ensured, along with their resistance to abrasion.
Installation errors
If the concrete surface has not been properly installed, depressions, grooves and channels can appear almost as soon as installation takes place.
What to consider before repairing a pothole
The first consideration is to define the boundaries of the area to be treated. The final repair area is usually larger than the pothole itself, so it covers adjacent areas that may have hidden defects.
With this in mind, before starting any repair, the substrate must be dry and sound.
Various treatments are available for repairs, although they all vary in cost and durability. Naturally, everything depends on the condition of the pothole and the solution recommended by professional technicians.
