Concrete maintenance is paramount for protecting the integrity of your apartment or condo complex, as well as ensuring it looks its best at all times. But beware — if you fall out of maintenance, you could end up with costly repairs or even a lawsuit. If you manage a condo or large dwelling complex on Oahu, Central Pacific Specialty Contractors wants you to know they are available to help with all of your concrete repair and maintenance issues. They’re here today to offer some advice on the importance of concrete maintenance.

Do Small Repairs ASAP

When your concrete cracks, you should repair it as soon as possible. The first step should always be to remove loose debris, leaves, and grass, as these materials will further erode your concrete. Once the surface is clear, you should then apply a polyurethane caulk sealant or other epoxy. The longer you leave these small repairs, they worse they will get.

Call Contractors for Concrete Spall Repair & Flat Work

Concrete damage can be more complex than a simple crack. “Spalling,” for example, describes a concrete surface full of pit marks. Concrete can also be in such disrepair that it needs to be completely re-done. For concrete damage of any size, call Central Pacific Specialty Contractors. The concrete contractors perform fast and accurate work, including concrete flat work and grading, as well as concrete spall repair. They even fix exposed reinforcing steel that's begun to rust.

Maintain Your Concrete to Avoid Legal Consequences

If you don't keep your concrete structures in good repair, you could face legal consequences. For example, if a tenant gets hurt or breaks personal property as a result of your ill-maintained concrete, you could be liable for any losses. A tenant could also sue you for losses incurred because of a major concrete repair which could have been avoided through routine maintenance.
