Rebar (or reinforcing bar) is commonly used when pouring modern concrete surfaces and driveways to increase strength particularly at tension points where more stress is likely to occur. Rebar is most often made of steel with rough ridges to ensure that the concrete can adhere to it making it almost a part of the concrete interior itself. However, rebar will eventually begin to corrode and when enough of it has disintegrated is when you see massive cracks appear or complete structural failure.
25 Year Concrete and Driveway Seal in Kansas City and Overland Park
At Rock Solid Concrete Sealing Systems, we’ve certainly seen our share of concrete catastrophes and in many cases they could have easily been prevented had the homeowner opted to have their concrete sealed. But with so many concrete sealants on the market, it can be tough to figure out which ones are effective and which ones are just gimmicks. Water and liquids are your concrete’s worst enemy not only because of erosion which will eventually happen but more importantly absorption. When water is absorbed into your concrete and driveway it can become trapped inside and in the winter months it can create big problems because when water freezes, it expands and your concrete will crack under the pressure.
But that’s not the only way that water can severely damage your concrete because once water is absorbed it can seep into where your rebar is and since rebar is commonly made of steel, it can rust, corrode and eventually disintegrate causing massive structural failure and immanent concrete replacement. The way prevent all of this concrete carnage is to have it professionally sealed and Rock Solid’s sealant is rated the best in the industry. Our concrete and driveway seal keeps water and other liquids from being absorbed on the surface while penetrating deep into the interior to protect the rebar and increase the density of the concrete itself. Our sealant increases the strength of concrete by 30% which and is guaranteed in writing to protect for up to 25 years.
We don’t like seeing homeowners with concrete surfaces or driveways that are cracked or damaged beyond repair which is why we constantly try to get our message out that sealing your concrete will save you money in the long run.
