Concrete work in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town on the flat Free State plains, with clayey and silty soils, shallow water tables in places and old mine ground that can settle. Mine-era brick houses are extended and repaired, and cracked and sinking slabs are a common complaint. Hard winter frost means fresh concrete must be covered, and strong winds in the dry season dry out surfaces quickly. Decline in mining has left empty buildings and plots, with demolition and rebuilding work. Ready-mix is batched in the area, but volumes are smaller than in Bloemfontein, so ask about minimum loads and delivery to Virginia, Odendaalsrus and outlying farms across flat but gravel-road country.
Typical concrete grinding requests in the area come from:
- Family homes: grinding a garage floor smooth before it is sealed, or removing old paint from a patio slab
- Extensions and backyard rooms: levelling the junction between an old slab and a new one in a house extension
- Warehouses and factories: preparing warehouse and factory slabs for epoxy and grinding forklift-damaged joints and ridges
- Shops, offices and restaurants: grinding shop and showroom floors ahead of polishing, or stripping old coatings and carpet glue
- New houses: taking the cement skin off a new surface bed before tiles or a floor coating go down
- Farms and smallholdings: preparing dairy, packing-shed and workshop floors for a hard-wearing coating
