If you own a manufacturing facility or other industrial building, keep an eye on the condition of the floor. A damaged surface can lead to broken equipment and unsafe working conditions. Here are the signs it's time for industrial concrete floor repairs from a local foundation repair company.

When to Schedule Industrial Concrete Floor Repairs

1. Problems With the Finish

If you have water or gasses coming up through your concrete floor, they can cause visible changes in the laminate layer on the surface. You may notice bubbles starting to form, small pinholes in the surface, or the laminate peeling and separating from the concrete. The area can also develop stains from the water or mold.

2. Cracks

This is the most obvious sign of concrete damage. You should repair small cracks promptly to keep them from worsening. Over time, small cracks will widen due to continued pressure from water, foundation shifting, and weight.

If allowed to remain without repairs, they can cause the whole floor to crumble, and you'll need to replace the floor sooner than you would have otherwise.

3. Unevenness

Sometimes, there aren't visible cracks, but the entire concrete slab can warp or compress. This creates a tripping hazard, as some areas are higher than others.

It also leads to water pooling in the low spots, which leads to an increased risk of slipping as well as electrical hazards. Whenever you see pooling water or general unevenness, you may need slab jacking to restore support and even out the floor, or you may need other repairs.
