Loading docks are a crucial location for industrial businesses. All machinery, raw materials, and tools of every kind must pass through it. As the name states, it is the location where the loading and unloading of raw materials and finished products happen. If there are problems like cracks, gaps, or uneven concrete surfaces, it is advised to look into them immediately. Avoiding these problems can become a hazard to both employees and products. 

Common Reasons For Problems In Loading Docks: 

Heavy Foot Material Traffic

Being subjected to constant foot traffic and constant movement of heavy materials may cause a stress factor on the concrete floor which may lead to cracks, gaps, and uneven surfaces. 

Soil Shrinking Compaction 

Soil shrinking and compaction leads to soil settling. It may happen due to extreme weather conditions, moisture, being overweight, etc. Due to this, the soil may lose its strength. This may lead to cracks, sunken concrete structures, etc. 

Solution 

Reconstruction of the damaged structure can cost you a fortune. Moreover, it will affect the production of your business. These problems can be fixed by a process known as Polyjacking. It is the process of repairing concrete structures with highly durable polyurethane foam. The polyurethane foam will be injected beneath the damaged concrete structure. The foam rapidly expands after injection and fixes gaps, cracks, uneven surfaces, etc. Hire the best dock repairing contractors in St.Louis to fix your concrete loading docks.
