Common Causes of Concrete Cracks

There are numerous circumstances wherein cracks could suddenly appear on your concrete walls and floors. If you ever wonder how it usually occurs, here are some of the most common issues that might cause concrete cracks.

 

Excessive water in the mix often reduces the strength of your concrete substantially in the long run. Concrete tends to shrink as it dries up and hardens, which often results in cracking.

Rapid drying of concrete is another issue you should consider during the procedure, as it usually leaves your concrete to crack.

Improper use of concrete mix or other compounds often leads to unwanted results. This is why taking precautions before buying or using any chemical compound for your surface, floor, and walls is necessary.

Floor Cracks could also be a potential sign of foundation problems. Fluctuating moisture on your soil could make your foundation unstable, which explains the floor cracks.

 

How will epoxy fill cracks in concrete? 

The primary purpose during crack repair is to fill in the gaps caused by the flooring's slight imperfections. Epoxy is widely used for bonding concrete together and restoring its structural stability by filling those empty gaps with a chemical that is typically even much stronger than the existing concrete as it dries up. Professionals use epoxy crack fillers often for crack repair, pits, pivots, and other defects on concrete or masonry.

When it comes to application, the material should first be thoroughly mixed. The mixed materials are then applied to the cracked surface area using a marginal trowel, putty knife, or any other suitable equipment.

 

How long will an epoxy repair last?

An epoxy crack repair within minutes could last for five years or even longer if correctly done. This is one of the many reasons why filling gaps with epoxy is an excellent method, as it is a straightforward procedure, cost-effective, and built to last for years.
