Why does some concrete develop surface deterioration?

January 15, 2016 By

Surface deterioration is usually referred to as scaling.  Scaling is a local flaking or peeling of the finished, hardened concrete surface, resulting primarily from multiple freeze-thaw cycles.  The condition can be aggravated by the presence of deicing materials such as salt.  Any product that is intended to melt ice and snow can contribute to scaling.  Even products labeled “Safe for Concrete” can contribute to scaling.  The probability that scaling may occur can be reduced or eliminated by using a durable concrete mix and following recommended concrete placing, finishing and curing/sealing practices.  Loveland Ready Mixed Concrete personnel are available to assist you in selecting the concrete mix and curing and sealing products for your project.  Please contact us for assistance.
