Shotcrete remedial & support structures

Strong, resilient and longer-lasting than brickwork — sprayed concrete is the practical way to strengthen and support failing or load-bearing structures. Serving Auckland, Tauranga, Hamilton & Whangarei.

Structural strengthening that outlasts brickwork

The strength and resilience of shotcrete make it ideal for remedial and support structures. No matter what needs strengthening, sprayed concrete is well suited — and it has a longer lifespan than brickwork.

Because it's sprayed directly onto the existing structure, it bonds tightly and follows whatever shape is already there, building a dense, hard-wearing layer that adds real strength where it's needed.

Why shotcrete for remedial & support work

When something needs strengthening, sprayed concrete brings the strength, durability and longevity the job calls for.

01

Strength & resilience

A dense, steel-reinforced sprayed layer adds genuine structural strength to whatever it's applied to.

02

Longer lifespan than brickwork

Shotcrete outlasts brickwork, making it a durable, long-term answer for support and remedial structures.

03

Bonds to what's already there

Sprayed straight onto the existing surface, it bonds tightly and reinforces the structure in place.

04

Strengthens almost anything

No matter what structure needs support, shotcrete is a versatile way to add strength where it counts.

05

Formless application

Because it's sprayed in place, it follows irregular and existing geometry without extensive formwork.

06

Low maintenance

A hard, monolithic surface stands up to the elements and keeps performing with little upkeep.

Spray & build up

Concrete is sprayed onto the structure and worked to profile, bonding tightly and building strength.

STEP 04

The new layer cures and is finished to suit, leaving a strong, durable, long-lasting result.

Common questions about remedial shotcrete

Why use shotcrete instead of brickwork?

Sprayed concrete is strong, resilient and has a longer lifespan than brickwork — and because it bonds directly to the existing structure, it reinforces what's already there rather than replacing it.

What kinds of structures can you strengthen?

No matter what needs strengthening — retaining structures, slopes, walls, masonry and more — shotcrete is a versatile way to add support and durability.

Can it be applied to an existing structure?
