Repairing, sealing and protecting existing concrete
Older concrete doesn't necessarily need replacing simply because it has become worn, cracked or damaged. Depending on its condition, CovercreteNZ can prepare and repair the surface, seal suitable cracks and apply an appropriate Sika sealer or coating to protect the concrete and improve its appearance.
Cracks aren't all the same, so the right treatment depends on the type of crack, its location and whether movement is involved. We carry out concrete crack repairs and sealing on driveways, outdoor areas and around swimming pools, selecting the repair or flexible sealing system appropriate to the conditions. Around pools, factors such as water, weather and regular foot traffic also need to be considered when selecting the treatment and finish.
Surface preparation may include concrete grinding and removal of existing coatings, contamination or weak substrates to create a sound surface for the new system. Once treated, an appropriate coating or sealer can help protect against water penetration, staining, surface wear and dusting while giving the concrete a cleaner, more finished appearance. We can give advice and recommendations for everything from a localised crack or damaged area to an older garage floor, driveway or other residential concrete surface that needs more extensive attention.
