The Solution
ECI scarified the concrete floor and provided repairs to several areas exhibiting cracks in the floor and walls. The walls were then coated with ECI’s FiberTech encasement system consisting of one coat of our FiberTech F-50 Pentrating Stabilizer Primer and one coat of our FiberTech F-51 Sealer Coat. The floor was mist coated with our penetrating floor sealer waterproofing densifier, 4EVERCRETE. This 0 VOC product will penetrate the concrete up to 7-8 inches and form a colloidal gel that fills all of the open pores inside the concrete. It will densify the concrete adding as much as 20% to the PSI of the slab. The floors were then coated with our water based epoxy system.
