Hydro-Demolition
The preferred method for rehabilitation and repair of concrete constructions
Page last modified
April 11 2024
A means to selectively remove concrete in a controlled manner, to a pre-set depth, without damaging the rebar & which cleans couplers & starter bars, producing no micro-cracks while removing low, pour quality concrete. Without the need for scaffolding, the wireless remotely operated robots can replace up to 5 handheld water jetting guns, 25 laborers with handheld jackhammers or 3 excavators with jackhammers.
