Concrete Restoration

W. R. MEADOWS is your source for all your concrete restoration needs.  Our full line of concrete patches, cementitious floor repair mortars, epoxies, and more, are suitable for every concrete restoration application.

Concrete is one of the most durable building materials that man has ever developed, but as tough as it is, concrete, at some point in its life, will need to be repaired. W. R. MEADOWS has been helping designers make concrete perform at its optimum for over 85 years.

When it comes to helping you repair and restore that concrete … no one beats our 85 years, consistency in ownership and experience.  Our products will repair and rejuvenate your concrete floors and concrete slabs, and then can be applied with a concrete sealer for ideal concrete repair.

Concrete Repair & Restoration

W. R. MEADOWS realized that various technologies, many of which are still used today, were not working. Expensive concrete restoration projects were being undertaken with concrete repair mortars that had a tendency to excessively shrink, resulting in cracking and loss of bond.

This cracking allowed the ingress of chlorides back into the repair zone to re-attack the embedded rebar … premature failure of the repaired area was imminent. The cost to contractors and owners for these premature failures was and continues to be significant.

Also, if not more important, the industry, through a coordinated research program, had determined that a successful structural repair required the repair mortar to behave like the host concrete. The similarities of the two materials would allow for proper load transfer and thus avoid point load transfer issues, which led to many long-term problems with past structural repairs.

The MEADOW-CRETE family of structural concrete repair mortars was developed to combat this industry problem. Utilizing the latest technologies, the MEADOW-CRETE line of mortars were designed to have these properties:

• Exceptionally low shrinkage, shrinkage compensated
• Increased tensile capacity through polymer modification and fiber reinforcement
• Increased “toughness” and reduced permeability through the use of micro-silica and polymer
• Polymer-modified to enhance not only flexural strength, but also bond strength
• Active protection of embedded rebar (migrating corrosion inhibitor)
• Physical properties similar to native concrete to ensure compatibility in truly structural concrete repairs

MEADOW-CRETE is available in multiple formulations to suit specific project and application requirements from low-pressure spray, hand applied to form and pour applications. Our products are backed by a technical team that can help you choose the proper product for your specific requirements.

W. R. MEADOWS’ extensive research and development department ensures that the latest proven technologies are at work for you in our structural concrete repair line.
