Industrial and Warehouse Concrete Floor Joint Repair
Concrete floor joints can be the greatest source of problems in industrial and warehouse floors. Their edges or 'arrisses' are vulnerable to damage, and unless they are adequately protected, they will break and erode under impact from the passage of wheeled vehicles. Wide concrete floor joints, or those filled with soft sealant, will increase the risk of damage. Concrete floor joints in a poor condition can cause significant damage to the Materials Handling Equipment, resulting in increased maintenance costs and can often lead to health complaints from the operators.

Concrete floor joints are designed and positioned to allow movement in concrete floors, without restraining movement as that could lead to random cracking. Joint sealant should be rigid enough to provide support and protection to the concrete arrisses, but it must also accommodate the anticipated movement in the floor whilst remaining bonded to at least one face of the joint.

Concrete Floor Joint Repair Solution

Concrete Grinding Ltd has been performing floor joint repairs for over 15 years and has earned a renowned reputation for the quality and durability of floor joint repair work. We have developed methods and repair materials to tackle all types of concrete floor joint and floor usage, with the aim to providing the best quality repairs and with minimal interruption to the client's operation.

As business grew for Concrete Grinding Ltd, joint repairs have also been carried out concurrently by its sister company, CG Flooring Systems Ltd, where the joint repair division was finally transferred to CG Flooring Systems permanently.

CG Flooring Systems continues to build on the reputation that Concrete Grinding Ltd started in the 1990’s whilst maintaining and developing the knowledge and expertise in joint repairs solution.

As a Group, we have long, well established relationships with several clients, where work has been carried out on an ad hoc basis or as part of an Annual Maintenance Programme. Many projects are assigned to us as a result of clients’ recommendations.

Our Annual Maintenance Programme is ideal for clients who require the security and the peace of mind should flooring problems arise. This approach allows warehouse/facilities managers to allocate their annual repair budget accordingly.

We have tested and used a wide range of so-called ‘industrial grade’ repair materials. As a result, the repair materials that we prefer to use today are, based on our expertise, the most reliable and durable products available on the market. This is reflected in the quality of our repairs. So much so that repairs we carried out with these products in the late 1990's are still in excellent condition today.
