At Colorado Concrete Repair, we understand that food production facilities demand flooring systems that meet strict industry standards while also withstanding the harsh conditions of daily operations. One of the most effective solutions available for industrial food production flooring is Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) resin. This versatile flooring option offers a range of benefits, making it an ideal choice for food processing environments. 1.

...READ MOREColorado Concrete Repair is a professional concrete leveling company. We arrive at properties that have uneven concrete and utilize a variety of tools and techniques to make sure that you have a perfectly level, smooth concrete surface every time. One approach to concrete leveling is to use self-leveling concrete. By definition, self-leveling concrete is a type of liquid concrete that goes on smooth and, using gravity, dries level to create a far more level space. Self-leveling concrete can have many advantages as an approach to concrete maintenance, though it should be noted that it is not without its risks and needs. Benefits and Risks of Self-Leveling Concrete First, it is important to understand that concrete may be durable, but it is also remarkably fragile. For example, self-leveling concrete is typically mixed with water at the time of service. But even the instructions on the bag are not entirely accurate.
