Concrete is renowned for its high strength. The degree of strength can be adapted to meet the needs of a specific project by altering the water, cement and aggregate ratio.
Remarkably, concrete strengthens year by year – this is due to the cement component’s ability to form bonds with surrounding moisture particles.
Producing the proper finish during placement is paramount, especially if the surface is to be polished.
The unyielding nature of concrete makes it a durable, long-lasting material choice. It resists erosion, fire, rotting, rusting, and weathering with relative ease, requiring minimal maintenance and repair. Concrete boasts a lifespan that exceeds many other types of building material.
Whatever the application, concrete has proven its value and flexibility time after time. Its incredible versatility makes it useful for an array of uses, including: roads, buildings, driveways, highways, pathways, garages, patios, and much more.
Not only that, it can also be mixed to generate varying degrees of strength, making it useful for the largest highway to the smallest garden path.
Additionally, concrete can also be cut into varying shapes and sizes to allow for unlimited design possibilities.
