Remicon provides remedial concrete repair and concrete construction services across Canberra, from localised crack and patch repairs through to removal and reinstatement, new concrete placement and larger rectification packages. Our approach is based on the actual defect, existing substrate and project requirements, and can include crack chasing, epoxy-based filling, crack injection, non-shrink or structural grout, concrete patching, grinding, dowelled repairs, reinforcement corrosion treatment and specified proprietary repair systems. Where a consultant, engineer or product manufacturer has nominated a repair methodology or product, Remicon works to the issued requirements and coordinates installation, hold points and documentation around the specified system.
Remicon's concrete capability is not limited to patch repairs. Where the existing concrete is no longer suitable for local remediation, we remove and reinstate affected concrete or supply and install new concrete to suit the project scope. A single remedial package combines investigation, demolition, substrate preparation, reinforcement or dowel works, concrete placement, local repairs, grinding, finishing and associated protection.
Concrete cracks require very different treatments depending on their width, depth, movement, location and the reason for the repair. Remicon undertakes practical crack preparation and repair in accordance with the nominated methodology. For suitable repairs this involves chasing or V-grooving the crack to create a clean repair profile, removing dust and contaminants, filling with a selected repair material, allowing the system to cure and grinding the completed repair flush where required.
Where crack injection is specified, the repair is completed using the nominated injection system and methodology, with product selection, crack preparation, injection requirements and curing following the applicable design, consultant direction and current manufacturer technical requirements. We do not lock the business into one proprietary repair brand.
Localised defects, penetrations, voids and damaged concrete are rebuilt using repair mortars, epoxy systems, cementitious products, non-shrink grout or other specified materials depending on the substrate and performance requirement. Remicon prepares the affected concrete mechanically, removes unsound material, cleans the repair area, installs the nominated bonding or priming system and reinstates the repair to the required profile.
Spalling occurs when reinforcement within concrete corrodes and expands, placing pressure on the surrounding concrete and causing cracking, delamination or loss of cover. Remicon undertakes localised spalling and reinforcement-corrosion repairs as part of a documented remedial methodology: removal of loose or unsound concrete, exposure of affected reinforcement to the required extent, preparation and treatment of the steel where specified, reinstatement of the concrete cover using a compatible repair system and finishing or protective coating works where included.
Exposed steel treatment
Where reinforcement or embedded steel is exposed during remediation, Remicon undertakes the specified preparation and treatment before the concrete repair is reinstated. This may include removal of corrosion products, preparation to the specified standard and application of a compatible reinforcement protection or passivation product. Where reinforcement loss, structural capacity or the extent of deterioration requires engineering assessment, Remicon works with the project consultant or engineer and installs the repair in accordance with the issued design.
Some concrete repairs and new concrete works require mechanical connection to the existing substrate. Remicon undertakes drilled and dowelled repairs where included in the design or agreed methodology: set-out, drilling, cleaning of holes, installation of nominated reinforcement or dowels using the specified anchoring system, reinforcement placement and subsequent concrete or grout reinstatement. Where dowels form part of a structural design, spacing, embedment, diameter, edge distances and anchoring requirements follow the issued design.
When patch repair is not the appropriate solution, Remicon removes defective concrete and reinstates new concrete, or constructs new concrete elements as part of a wider remedial project, from small local infills through to slabs, hobs, paths, plinths, capping works and other site-specific concrete construction.
Concrete grinding forms part of crack repair, surface preparation, level adjustment and final finishing. Remicon undertakes localised grinding to remove high points, prepare for coatings, smooth completed repairs or create transitions between existing and repaired areas. Grinding allowances and achievable tolerances depend on slab thickness, reinforcement cover, existing levels, drainage requirements and the amount of material that can safely be removed.
Remicon regularly works in consultant-led remedial environments where the repair product and methodology are nominated by an engineer, remedial consultant or product manufacturer. We review the issued system requirements, source the nominated material, coordinate technical information and install the product in accordance with the project-specific methodology and current manufacturer instructions. Where required, works incorporate inspection and test plans, photographic records, staged hold points and consultant or manufacturer review before subsequent stages proceed.
Concrete remediation becomes concealed as the repair progresses. Remicon structures works around defined quality hold points so critical preparation and reinforcement conditions are documented before they are covered. Records include pre-work photographs, crack or defect mapping, substrate preparation, exposed reinforcement condition, product batch details, installation stages, consultant inspections and completed repair photographs.
Repairing the immediate defect is only one part of protecting a concrete asset. Remicon combines concrete remediation with joint sealing, protective coating preparation, waterproofing or other measures intended to reduce ongoing exposure and deterioration. This is particularly relevant to carparks, balconies, podiums, façades and exposed concrete elements where moisture, weathering, movement and recurring maintenance affect long-term performance.
Remicon provides concrete repair and asset-protection services across Canberra for strata managers, owners corporations, commercial property managers, builders, engineers, remedial consultants and asset owners. Our capability is particularly suited to carparks, apartment buildings, podiums, balconies, façades and other existing structures where repairs must be coordinated around access, occupants, consultant requirements and retained construction.
Verify before publishing: do not describe all cracks as structural or imply one repair method suits every crack. Do not state epoxy injection or rigid filling accommodates active movement unless the system supports it. Consultant or manufacturer review is project-specific, not automatic certification of every repair.
