concrete repair
Concrete repair
As a result of the manufacturing and construction process, not only superficial deviations can occur in the exposed concrete, but also damage that affects the durability of the exposed concrete. A sustainable exposed concrete repair with subsequent exposed concrete cosmetics and retouching is usually part of the manufacturing process of exposed concrete.
Damage patterns such as voids, gravel pockets, failed joints and anchor holes often occur during production. Defects in prefabricated concrete parts (FT) often occur due to improper transport, storage or assembly conditions. Further damage can occur during the ongoing construction process, such as material damage due to carelessness, construction-related drilling, cable slots, discoloration due to improper cleaning measures or chips and cracks due to the effects of the weather.
Exposed concrete surfaces with character
To carry out an exposed concrete repair and sustainably remove damage, it is recommended to hire a specialist who, in addition to the renovation, will also carry out the subsequent exposed concrete cosmetics and retouching. Based on catalogs of defects, pictures or the assessment by one of our employees on site, we record all damage patterns on the exposed concrete, estimate the extent of the exposed concrete processing and take care of the execution of all measures from a single source.
The exposed concrete repair can be carried out both according to effort and according to the list of services. If the exposed concrete repair is carried out based on effort, the actual need may vary depending on the circumstances and requirements. When executing according to the specifications, we create a specifications, record the identifiable damage and defects and describe them in detail in order to implement projects in a timely and financially plannable manner.

Discover How Our Expertise Brings Outstanding Concrete Retouching and Concrete Processing to the Impressive Stuttgart 21 Project
Concrete Cosmetics, Concrete Staining, Hydrophobization - Stuttgart 21
At the Stuttgart 21 mega-project, we apply the highest precision and expertise to concrete retouching and processing. Our focus is on the targeted refinement of visible concrete surfaces on massive exposed concrete elements.
Our final adjustment includes precise concrete retouching of the exposed concrete surfaces to ensure seamless integration into the environment. Both the large-scale staining of main surfaces and the local retouching meet the highest standards and are perfectly aligned with the surroundings. This all takes place at dizzying heights of 20 meters while we work on aerial work platforms and lifts.
At Stuttgart 21, we undertake large-scale concrete retouching, including the professional reworking of support elements removed during the project. This includes removing screw threads at the support points and using closure cones with precisely matched concrete surfaces. Through careful roughening, application, and grinding, we ensure that the surfaces harmoniously integrate into the surrounding areas. Local adjustments to the joint patterns are also one of our specialties.
