About Abilene Concrete Pros

Concrete scaling is the flaking or peeling of the surface layer, often due to freeze-thaw cycles or exposure to de-icing salts. When water infiltrates the concrete and freezes, it expands, causing the surface to deteriorate. Applying a high-quality sealer helps prevent water absorption, reducing the risk of scaling. Proper curing and using air-entrained concrete, which contains small air bubbles to relieve pressure from freezing water, are also effective. Regular maintenance, including re-sealing, protects concrete from scaling, ensuring a long-lasting, durable surface, especially in cold climates with frequent freeze-thaw cycles.
