Concrete repairer
Although concrete seems very solid and near indestructible, in practice it is damaged regularly. Traffic accidents and harsh weather conditions inflict damage on bridges, tunnels, viaducts, and buildings. Leakage, fire, or the need for restoration are reasons to repair concrete. Concrete is vulnerable when iron reinforcement frames start rusting or because of errors during production or construction. Your job as concrete repairer is to ensure safety by reinforcing concrete and enhancing its quality.

Capable in concrete constructions
All activities surrounding concrete reparations are your responsibility. First, you analyse the damages. Is the object in question a bridge or tunnel? Maybe the problem exists in a building. You administer anomalies and damages you find. Larger surfaces require spraying or injecting the concrete. You use different mortars and hand tools for smaller surfaces and cracks. After restoring the leak damage, you apply a water- or moist resistant coating on the concrete. Most times you finish your work with a protective, chemical layer. Your most important jobs are:
- Analysing damages
- Making a restoration plan
- Pouring, injecting, or spraying concrete
- Finishing with a coating (protective, water resistant etc)
