The urgent concrete floor repairs were required due to the immediate handover of the building to new owners.

Nationwide Diamond Contracts obtained the official order on the Friday evening and commenced the initial saw cutting works the following Monday morning.

We then drilled and dowelled using our unique drilling and dowelling system to install 12mm round 300m long steel dowel bars at the rate of 1 every 3 minutes including resin anchoring.
