Concrete repairs to buildings of special historic or architectural interest must match the appearance of the rest of the structure in terms of colour, texture and finish to achieve a sympathetic restoration. The Heritage Solution Flexcrete’s concrete repair materials have been specified for remedial work on many listed buildings and structures over the years, including Harrogate’s Royal Hall, Bolton School and Thames Tunnel to name a few. Flexcrete’s hand applied, high build concrete repair mortars are easily moulded and sculptured to replicate the original texture and form of concrete. With repair mortars available in white and grey, close colour matches can also be achieved. For more traditional heritage work involving repairs to stone and brickwork, we offer lightweight repair mortars which are compatible with the parent substrate and can be applied up to 100mm in a single application. Where conservation policy does not allow an external protective masonry coating to be applied, Flexcrete’s migratory corrosion inhibitor can be used. This is surface applied and seeks out and protects the steel reinforcement against the effects of chloride ions, without changing the colour or external appearance of the structure. Solutions for Concrete Repair & Protection - Commercial Buildings At Flexcrete, we have extensive expertise in the concrete repair and protection of all types of buildings and structures.

Download File Regent Street Disease Late in the 19th century, advances in structural engineering led to an explosion in the construction of steel framed buildings. Today, corrosion of the steel frame resulting from moisture penetration through masonry cladding is commonly referred to as ‘Regent Street Disease’. This particular problem can be very difficult to identify until the corrosion is advanced, and it is therefore often necessary to undertake emergency repairs. In restoration works, Flexcrete’s water-based epoxy cementitious coating technology is often the preferred method for protecting and passivating corroded steel beams. Contact Flexcrete Today Solutions for Heritage Structures Problems and Solutions Freeze-Thaw Exposure Corrosion on Listed Concrete Structures The Problem Deterioration of natural or cast stone through freeze-thaw exposure. The Solution All failed areas are reinstated with Monolite. This low density, high-build mortar is specially designed to minimise stress in the substrate as a result of its low shrinkage and low modulus of elasticity. The product can be applied in thicknesses up to 100mm and can be easily shaped to match the form of the original stone. Monolite has been successfully used to repair external decorative cornices.
