1. How to repair a concrete floor?
For reliable concrete floor repair, it is recommended to use self-leveling, shrinkage-free repair mortars with high adhesion to concrete and reinforcement, as well as resistance to mechanical stress. One such repair mortar is Teknogrout EX. The material can be applied in thicknesses from 10 to 60 mm, allowing for effective leveling of irregularities and filling of potholes.
2. How to level a concrete floor yourself?
If there are cracks, chips, or holes, the best solution is to use the self-leveling repair mortar Teknogrout EX – a single-component compound with high strength. It is easy to apply, sets quickly, and creates a flat, shrink-free surface.
3. What repair mortar should you choose for quick concrete floor repair?
There are many concrete repair mixtures available, but the choice depends on application thickness, compressive strength, thixotropy or flowability, and adhesion to the substrate and reinforcement. Teknogrout EX is a pourable, single-component, shrinkage-free mortar with high adhesion. As a result, you get a perfectly smooth and durable surface ready for pedestrian and mechanical loads in just two hours.
4. What should be the application layer thickness of a pourable repair mortar?
The recommended application thickness for Teknogrout EX is from 10 to 60 mm. If a thicker layer is needed, it should be applied in multiple stages. Applying a layer thinner than 10 mm is not recommended, as it may affect the strength of the coating.
5. How to repair a hole in concrete?
To properly repair a pothole or deep crack in a concrete floor, use Teknogrout EX. Its shrinkage-free formula and waterproof properties make it suitable even for rooms with high humidity or aggressive environments.
6. How soon can you walk on the repaired surface?
Just two hours after application, the Teknogrout EX-repaired concrete floor can be used, significantly saving repair time and allowing for a quick return to operations.
7. Does the repair mortar shrink after drying?
No, Teknogrout EX is a shrinkage-free mixture that does not deform or crack after curing and requires no additional maintenance. This is especially important when repairing industrial or commercial floors.
8. Why shouldn't you use regular cement mortar to repair concrete?
Cement mortars have low adhesion and shrink, which leads to cracking. For quality repair, it’s better to choose specialized repair mortars like Teknogrout EX. It’s not only strong and durable but also has enhanced adhesion to concrete, doesn’t shrink, and retains its properties even in aggressive environments.
9. Which repair mortars should you choose for concrete?
When repairing a concrete floor, consider whether it’s for residential or industrial use, what loads the surface needs to withstand, and the size of the cracks to be repaired. Teknogrout EX is suitable for filling cracks from 10 to 60 mm, sets quickly, and withstands heavy industrial loads.
10. How to repair cracks in a concrete screed?
If cracks appear on the surface of a concrete floor and it starts to crumble, a good solution is to use Teknogrout EX. It is a self-leveling, shrinkage-free mortar for quick repair of concrete surfaces with damage between 10 and 60 mm deep.
11. The concrete floor is deteriorating in a garage, warehouse, service station, or production area. How to repair it?
To repair and restore concrete surfaces under heavy loads, use repair mortars with high adhesion to concrete and metal, high compressive strength, and self-leveling capabilities. Teknogrout EX gains strength quickly (within 1–2 hours), doesn’t shrink, resists moisture, is waterproof, has excellent adhesion, and withstands freeze-thaw cycles and exposure to various chemicals.
