An advanced concrete repair system from global building product manufacturer Sika has been specified to repair damaged concrete surfaces of four tower blocks in Halifax. The four 15 storey tower blocks required refurbishment due to concrete deterioration set in over time. The anti-carbonation coating SikaGard 675W was chosen to reinforce the concrete frame.

For the balcony repairs, a fast application process that would allow the extensive refurbishments to be carried out with the minimum of disruption to residents was required. With its ability to be laid and trafficked in the same day the Sikafloor-415 Elastomeric walkway and balcony system proved the ideal solution.

As a result of the Sika applications, the concrete was surfaces were able to be restored to their original state and ensure the perfect regeneration of the tower blocks.
