The unique properties of Basecrete make it an ideal solution for most corrosion problems affecting concrete structures today.

Basecrete can be used to protect new structures against the agents that cause corrosion as well as on existing structures that have begun to deteriorate due to the corrosive effects of agents such as water, chlorides or other corrosiveagents.

Applying a thin layer of Basecrete on a new structure will prevent water and or chlorides from penetrating into the substrate and damaging the structure through the oxidization of the rebar inside the concrete. Basecrete in addition to being waterproof is highly resistant to common corrosive elements such as chlorides and other acidic elements.

On structures that exhibit damage due to corrosion such as cracking and spalling, Basecrete can be used to repair the damage already done as well as to seal the structure afterwards to prevent further damage taking place.

A common problem is the delamination of the surface layer on concrete structures due to water infiltration. A protective coating of Basecrete underneath the outer layer will eliminate this problem in most cases. Balconies in coastal condos are an excellent example of a concrete structure where a protective layer of Basecrete will eliminate future problems of delamination of the top coat.
