Preventing Concrete Spalling and Scaling

At Rock Solid Concrete Sealing Systems, we often talk about the damage that can occur in the interior of unsealed concrete and driveways due to liquids being absorbed but the fact is that the exterior surface are just as, if not more, susceptible to damage as well. While interior concrete damage is typically more costly to repair as it often involves complete tear our and replacement, exterior damage to concrete slowly but surely turns to rubble if not addressed especially in the Kansas City area where we see vast temperature swings as the seasons change. While rock salts and ice melt are often to blame for the surface of concrete to become pitted and chipped, frozen liquids are the primary culprit leaving exposed and unsealed concrete and driveways scarred and extremely vulnerable to even more damage.

One of the first signs that your concrete or driveway needs to sealed is when it starts showing signs of spalling. Concrete spalling can be seen on the surface where it appears as peeling, breaking and chips. Spalling is typically caused by one of two things or a bad combination of both. Poor quality concrete is often to blame but more specifically improper curing and bad finishing techniques however rock salt and de-ice chemicals can accelerate the rate of spalling. Plus, when salt or ice melt is being used chances are there are freezing temperatures in play which puts even more pressure on the surface of unsealed concrete. Scaling concrete is similar but is more of a direct result of the concrete expanding and contracting due to freeze/thaw cycles and in this case of scaling, larger chunks of the concrete surface break off causing an easy place for water or other liquids to settle into perpetuating the damage further. While we don’t repair or replace concrete and driveway, we can and do prevent damage with our 25 year guaranteed sealant for standard concrete that is proven to prevent spalling, scaling, and cracking. Our sealant strengthens both the exterior and interior of concrete by up to 30% in addition to keeping liquids from being absorbed or puddling on the surface which means you will never have to worry about costly repairs or replacement no matter what the Kansas City weather brings.
