Our services in detail

What our service areas cover in concrete terms – and which measures we typically carry out.

Concrete Restoration

Concrete is durable – but not maintenance-free. Carbonation, chlorides and freeze-thaw cycles attack the substance and, at an advanced stage, endanger the reinforcement and thus the load-bearing capacity. We professionally restore damaged concrete components before a surface defect becomes a structural safety problem.

Every measure is based on DIN EN 1504 and the recognised rules of engineering: from removing damaged concrete surfaces and protecting the exposed reinforcement against corrosion to reprofiling and the final surface protection.

Typical services

  • Concrete removal by ultra-high-pressure water jetting or chiselling
  • De-rusting and corrosion protection of the reinforcement
  • Reprofiling with PCC/SPCC mortar systems
  • Surface protection systems (OS coatings)
  • Carbonation and chloride testing
  • Cathodic corrosion protection (CP)

Civil Engineering Structures

Bridges, tunnels, retaining structures and culverts are exposed to particular stresses – and carry particular responsibility. We maintain and rehabilitate civil engineering structures for public and private clients, including under live traffic or ongoing operation where required.

From individual defects identified in structural inspections to full-scale rehabilitation, we handle the complete measure including traffic safety measures and scaffolding in coordination with our partners.

Typical services

  • Bridge rehabilitation (superstructure, substructures, caps)
  • Tunnel and culvert rehabilitation
  • Repair of retaining and cantilever walls
  • Hydraulic structures and drainage systems
  • Execution in accordance with ZTV-ING and DIN EN 1504
  • Works under live traffic

Building Maintenance

Without regular maintenance, residential and commercial properties lose substance, function and value. We refurbish façades, balconies, underground car parks and load-bearing components in existing buildings – well coordinated and with minimal disruption to occupants.

Whether a targeted repair or a comprehensive modernisation: we develop the economically sensible solution for owners, property managers and businesses.

Typical services

  • Façade repair and coating
  • Balcony and terrace refurbishment
  • Underground car park and parking deck refurbishment
  • Structural strengthening of load-bearing components
  • Concrete repair in existing buildings
  • Modernisation and conversion works

Waterproofing

Water ingress is one of the most common causes of damage in construction – from damp basement walls to leaking parking decks. We permanently waterproof structures against both pressing and non-pressing water.

Depending on the component and exposure, we use sheet waterproofing, injection methods or coating systems – in line with the relevant waterproofing standards.

Typical services

  • External basement waterproofing (earth-contact components)
  • Retrofitted horizontal barriers by injection
  • Surface waterproofing with bitumen and liquid plastic systems
  • Waterproofing against pressing water
  • Joint sealing and joint refurbishment
  • Trafficable coatings for balconies and parking areas

Crack Repair

Not every crack is a defect – but every crack deserves a professional assessment. We evaluate the cause and width of the crack and select the appropriate repair objective on that basis: rigid structural bonding, flexible filling or sealing.

The work is carried out by injection using grouts matched to the specific application – fully documented.

Typical services

  • Structural crack injection with epoxy resin
  • Flexible and sealing PU injection
  • Cement paste and microfine cement injection
  • Curtain/area injection for saturated components
  • Cause analysis and crack monitoring
  • Complete execution documentation

Structural Diagnostics

A reliable repair starts with a reliable diagnosis. We systematically record the current condition of your structure and provide the data basis for the repair concept, tendering and cost planning.

We summarise the results in a clear report with prioritised recommendations for action – from immediate needs to medium-term maintenance planning.

Typical services

  • Condition survey and damage mapping
  • Concrete cover measurement
  • Determination of carbonation depth
  • Chloride content analysis
  • Pull-off and strength testing
  • Repair concept with budget framework

Corrosion Protection

Corrosion is the silent adversary of every steel and reinforced concrete structure. With coordinated coating systems and active protection methods, we stop ongoing corrosion processes and prevent new ones.

From preparatory blasting to the multi-layer coating build-up, we handle the complete execution including film thickness checks and documentation.

Typical services

  • Coating systems for steel components
  • Surface protection systems for concrete (OS systems)
  • Cathodic corrosion protection (CP)
  • De-rusting and blasting works
  • Film thickness measurement and quality control
  • Maintenance and inspection intervals

Site Supervision

Quality is created on site – and that is where it must be assured. Our specialist site management accompanies repair measures from work preparation through to final acceptance.

We check the execution against the concept and the bill of quantities, coordinate the trades involved and document every relevant work step.

Typical services

  • Specialist site management for concrete repair
  • Quality assurance and testing during construction
  • Schedule and cost control
  • Coordination of the trades involved
  • Measurement and invoice verification
  • Acceptance and as-built documentation

Consulting & Planning

The most economical repair is the one that fits the structure and your objectives. We advise owners, property managers, planners and public clients from the early project phase onwards.

From the initial assessment through the refurbishment concept to tendering support, you get planning certainty from a single source.

Typical services

  • Initial technical consultation on site
  • Refurbishment and repair concepts
  • Economic comparison of options
  • Cost estimation and budget planning
  • Support with tendering and contract award
  • Maintenance and upkeep schedules

Electrical Services

With our team of electrical engineers, we extend structural maintenance to the electrical side – from repairing the building installation in the course of a refurbishment to charging infrastructure in the freshly refurbished underground car park.

This gives you construction and electrical services coordinated from a single source: one contact, one schedule, one documentation.

Typical services

  • Electrical repair in the course of refurbishment measures
  • Testing of fixed electrical installations (DGUV regulation 3)
  • Planning and installation of EV charging infrastructure (wallboxes, load management)
  • LED lighting refurbishment in underground car parks and commercial buildings
  • Electrical engineering for cathodic corrosion protection (CP)

Energy-Efficient Refurbishment

Repair and energy efficiency belong together: if the façade is being refurbished anyway, the energy upgrade should be considered at the same time. Our energy engineering specialists develop concepts that combine preservation of the building fabric with energy savings.

On request including funding advice – from BEG subsidies to an individual refurbishment roadmap.

Typical services

  • Energy refurbishment concepts for residential and commercial buildings
  • Energy performance certificates in accordance with the German Buildings Energy Act (GEG)
  • Thermography and thermal bridge analyses
  • Funding advice (including BEG programmes)
  • Combining façade repair with insulation
  • Economic assessment of energy measures

Structural Monitoring

For us, maintenance does not end with the final acceptance. Using modern sensor technology, we permanently monitor the condition of refurbished and damage-prone structures – and detect changes before they become defects.

Our civil and electrical engineers jointly develop the right monitoring solution for your structure.

Typical services

  • Crack monitoring with electronic displacement transducers
  • Moisture and temperature monitoring
  • Strain and settlement measurement
  • Monitoring of cathodic protection systems
  • Automated alerts when limit values are exceeded
  • Regular evaluation and reporting

Frequently asked questions

How does a structural repair project proceed with you?

In five steps: on-site structural diagnostics, an individual repair concept, a transparent quotation with schedule, professional execution by our teams, and final acceptance with complete documentation.

Do you also prepare the repair concept?

Yes. Diagnostics, concept development and execution all come from a single source. This avoids losses at interfaces and ensures the concept is practically buildable.

Do you operate throughout Germany?

Yes. From our headquarters in Kassel we handle projects all over Germany, with regional focuses in Hamburg, Berlin, Frankfurt am Main and Munich.

How much does a refurbishment cost?

That depends on the structure, the damage pattern and the repair objective. After an initial assessment you receive a comprehensible cost estimate from us – the initial consultation is free of obligation.

Do you also take on smaller measures?

Yes. We carry out both targeted individual measures such as crack injection or balcony refurbishment and complex large-scale projects on civil engineering structures.
