The 10 Signs Of Concrete Cancer – How To Identify Concrete Cancer
Luckily, with concrete cancer, the signs are a good deal more obvious than with people. All you have to do is conduct regular inspections so it doesn’t creep up on you! Here are some of the most notorious signs:
1) Rust: Rust marks will appear and are a sign of Concrete Cancer.
2) Worn Surfaces: Unprotected, porous surfaces lead to water absorption and Concrete Cancer.
3) Cracked / Fractured Concrete: Cracks provide water access to the steel reinforcement, instigating Concrete Cancer and fracturing the concrete, enabling further water penetration. Parts of the concrete crumble away.
4) Moisture Stains and Ponding: Inadequate drainage causes water to settle into the concrete, leading to Concrete Cancer.
5) Failing Control and Expansion Joints: Joints that do not facilitate concrete movement can lead to concrete fracturing and Concrete Cancer.
6) Inadequate Concrete Cover: Steel reinforcement that is too close to the surface makes it easier for water absorption, resulting in Concrete Cancer.
7) Rusted Balustrade Fixings: Rust spreads to the embedded concrete, starting the Concrete Cancer process.
8) Bubbling Paint: Paint that appears to be bubbling, i.e. on soffits, often means Concrete Cancer is present.
9) Hollow Surfaces: Concrete surfaces that seem hollow usually have Concrete Cancer.
10) Exposed Steel Reinforcement: Concrete Cancer causes concrete to break away, exposing the steel reinforcement.
If you look out for these things regularly, notice one of the signs early, and get on top of it, the cost you will pay and damage to your building or structure will be significantly reduced. If you do notice one of these things, you should contact a professional to give a proper diagnosis.

Is It Safe To Buy A Property With Concrete Cancer?
Yes, whoever the long answer is, it is best to avoid a property with existing Concrete Cancer. You don’t want to agree to buy a property that has existing Concrete Cancer or shows signs of Concrete Cancer. Only to realise the full extent of the issue and repair costs after you have purchased the property. It is not uncommon for property owners to try their best to cover Concrete Cancer to avoid repair costs before selling the property.
It will cost you thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars, to fix. So, the concrete slab probably won’t fall on top of you from above (although it could!), but if it has concrete cancer, there is a large list of reasons why it must be repaired for safety reasons.
When it comes to Concrete Cancer on your floor, it is extremely common and must be repaired before any Floor Levelling product, Flooring System, or Floor Coating is installed. If you fail to make the repairs, it will most likely cause your Floor Levelling, Flooring System, or Coating that you have installed to fail. You will not receive a warranty on any of the products installed, as most companies are not willing to install Magnesite Flooring or concrete affected by Concrete Cancer.
How To Identify Concrete Cancer
Concrete cancer, a structural issue where steel reinforcement within concrete corrodes, can be identified by several telltale signs, including cracking, crumbling, and rust stains. Bubbling concrete, rust spots, and leaks are also indicators of concrete cancer. The project suggests that concrete expanding outwards can be another sign.
Signs of Concrete Cancer:
Cracking and Crumbling: Concrete may exhibit cracks or crumble away, especially around areas where the steel reinforcement is located.
Rust Stains: Rust stains seeping through the concrete surface are a clear indication of steel corrosion, a primary cause of concrete cancer.
Bubbling: Concrete may exhibit bubbling or raised patches, particularly in areas where rust is expanding.
Leaking: Leaks in ceilings, walls, or even the roof can be a sign that the concrete is deteriorating due to concrete cancer. 
What Is Concrete Cancer?
The first thing we need to discuss is the composition of concrete structures. Concrete is a porous material, and when used for construction, reinforcing steel is inserted to bolster its strength. Because concrete is porous, it can absorb water and salt air very easily, which corrodes the steel inside.
This process is what gives a structure to Concrete Cancer. Concrete cancer is when concrete absorbs water and salt air, which rusts the steel within. When steel corrodes, it expands. When it expands, it cracks the concrete.
The alkali-silica reaction, more commonly known as concrete cancer, is a deleterious swelling reaction that occurs over time in concrete between the highly alkaline cement paste and the reactive amorphous silica found in many common aggregates, given sufficient moisture
The cracking accelerates the concrete cancer process by exposing more of the steel, which significantly weakens the building. It is called Concrete Cancer because if left untreated, the damage will grow further, faster, and be more severe. So get on top of it early!
How Does Concrete Cancer Occur?
The large, glaringly obvious reason for concrete cancer is moisture in the concrete. Here are some more causes to be aware of for your concrete building or structure:
– Poor waterproofing that allows moisture into the concrete
– Salt air and chlorides, if your building or structure is near the ocean or a river
– Building defects
– Humid or rainy weather and general wear and tear
– Poor quality concrete
– The Earth’s foundation is built on shifts and moves, promoting cracks
– Magnesite Flooring can rapidly damage your concrete slab
What Structures Are Most At Risk?
A structure most at risk of concrete cancer is exposed to any or all of the above. However, usually, concrete cancer is prevalent in buildings that are older than 10 years old. That isn’t to say younger buildings aren’t at risk, but if your building is more than 10 years old, you should be hyper-aware of the signs.
Treating concrete cancer is highly, highly recommended to be done by a professional. When you have concrete cancer, the spread of it must be shut down. Otherwise, the structural integrity of the building will be compromised, and you could be facing exorbitant prices to fix it, or even have the entire building destroyed.
It should be noted that most buildings from the 1920s to the 1990s have Magnesite Flooring in the unit. This rapidly increases the speed of concrete cancer and should be removed and fixed ASAP.
Properties closer to the ocean/beaches will also have Concrete Cancer start rapidly, a lot faster than properties that are not near the ocean/beaches. Salt hastens the rusting process, so buildings along the coastline are more susceptible to concrete cancer due to salt in the air.
Is There Magnesite Flooring In Your Property?
If your home was built in the 1920s – 1980s, likely, your home (Especially unit blocks in NSW) could potentially have Magnesite Flooring. Magnesite is present below a flooring system such as carpet. Magnesite is a product used as a noise preventative and a Floor Levelling agent.
Magnesite Flooring absorbs moisture (particularly in areas prone to moisture such as external walls, doorways, around shower recesses, near windows, laundries, etc.) Unfortunately, once Magnesite Flooring absorbs moisture, it starts a chemical reaction that will cause Concrete Cancer over long periods.
Because your Magnesite Flooring was laid 40 – 100 years ago, it has likely absorbed moisture over the many decades that it has been trapped under your flooring system, and it has most likely started to break down and lose its strength, making it an unsuitable Floor Levelling product that it once was, as well as very hollow, which destroys its soundproofing.
The best thing you can do to prevent further damage to your property and the concrete slab is to remove it ASAP. Magnesite Flooring consists of Magnesium Oxychloride, which may contain ASBESTOS.
Since it is a health hazard and a major safety risk in NSW, if you remove your flooring system and find out there is Magnesite under it.
YOU MUST remove your Magnesite Flooring for the safety of you and everyone else in your unit block.
Strata may pay to remove your Magnesite Flooring as it is considered “Common property”. Magnesite Flooring can cause Concrete Cancer, which is a major risk to everyone’s safety as well as the successful reinstallation of your new flooring system.
NO company will give you any form of warranty or insurance on any flooring installation job on a magnesite floor, which is another reason why it should always be removed.
How Long Does Concrete Cancer Repairs Take?
Concrete Cancer Repairs can take anywhere from a day or two for minor repairs to several days or even weeks for more extensive cases. The duration depends on the severity and size of the affected area, as well as the chosen repair method. For example, smaller repairs may be completed in a day or two, while larger projects could take several weeks.

Is It Dangerous To Repair Concrete Cancer?
Yes, Concrete Cancer Repairs are dangerous.
Concrete Cancer Repairs without the correct PPE and power tools/equipment will create a harmful silica dust environment. It’s also possible to be injured by tools as well as injured from the Concrete Cancer Repair process.
– SERIOUS INJURIES: Sometimes, Tiny pieces of Concrete can go flying in the air during the Concrete Cancer Repair process. Pieces of concrete can accidentally hit your eye, causing serious damage, if not blindness. The tools required to perform this task are also dangerous to use for people who are not highly skilled in using these tools.
– ACCIDENTAL INJURIES: It’s easy to look up a guide on what tools to use, but injuries often occur from a lack of knowledge of how to use these tools safely.
– PERMANENT LUNG DAMAGE: Inhaling dangerous silica dust by not using the correct PPE and Dust Extractors can be deadly.
The longer silicosis goes without treatment, the more likely it is to develop a complication. Because the disease affects the immune system, silicosis patients are vulnerable to developing tuberculosis, lung cancer, COPD, and kidney disease.
-
- Lung Cancer.
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
- Kidney Disease.
- Autoimmune Disease.
Breathing in very small (“respirable”) crystalline silica particles causes multiple diseases, including silicosis, an incurable lung disease that leads to disability and death. Respirable crystalline silica also causes lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and kidney disease.

How Do I Work Out How Much My Job Will Cost?
How To Use A Square Metre Calculator – A square metre calculator is very simple to use. To calculate square meters, you need to know the length and width of each area (Floor plans or manual measuring can help with this). This is also referred to as the area of the shape; most commonly, it’s a simple square or rectangle, but for more advanced areas, it can be harder and different shapes.
Square metres are calculated by Length x Width
For example 1 x 1 = 1 square metre
For example 7 x 4 = 28 square metres
For example 14 x 1 = 14 Square Metres
Or you can simply email Carpet Removal Sydney your “Floor Plan” to make it easier for you. We will calculate the square metres for you, but sometimes a Floor Plan may be missing measurements (most commonly the hallways), so those may need to be manually measured, or we may need to “guess” the rough measurement of that area.
Here is an example of a floor plan sent to us with “Missing Measurements.”
How to Calculate Square Meters
You might find yourself needing the area of a room or other space in square meters for a flooring, renovation, or landscaping project. To obtain such a measurement, you can measure the area of the space in square meters in a few simple steps. Follow along to learn how to calculate it yourself, or simply use the calculator above.
Step One: Measure Length and Width
In order to calculate the area of a space, you must know its dimensions. For example, if the shape of the space is a square or rectangle, then start by measuring the length and width of the space in meters using a tape measure or other measuring tool.
If your measurements are in another unit of measure, centimetres, for example, then you can either convert them to meters first, or you can find the area in another unit and convert them to square meters. We have some simple area conversion utilities, or you can convert yourself. If your length measurements are in centimetres, then divide by 100 to get meters.
If your area measurement is in square centimetres, then divide by 10,000 to get square meters.
If your space is not a square or rectangle, you may need to use a formula to calculate the area of a different shape. Or continue reading to see how to measure the area of oddly shaped rooms.
Step Two: Multiply Measurements Together
Once you have your measurements in meters, you can use the appropriate formula to calculate the area of the space in square meters. Continuing the example above for the square or rectangular room, now that you have a length and width measurement, you can find the area in square meters by multiplying the length and width together.
square meters = length × width
Measuring Oddly Shaped Rooms
Often, you’ll need to measure a space that’s not a perfect rectangle. It might be easiest to try to split up oddly shaped areas into separate shapes and measure the square meters of each of them separately.
Once that is complete, add up the individually calculated areas to find the total area of the space. You’ll also find that the formula above works great for rectangular areas. For other shapes, try our area calculator.
For example, see the formula below to see how to add two individually calculated areas of a complex space together.
total square meters = area 1 + area 2
FAQ’s
Are Square Metres and Metres The Same Thing?
No, square meters are a two-dimensional unit of area, whereas meters are a one-dimensional unit of length.
What Does 1 Square Metre Look Like?
One square meter is equal to a square that is 1 meter in width by 1 meter in height. For visual reference, a guitar is about 1 meter in length, so 1 square meter is approximately the area inside of a square made with guitars for edges.
Are Square Metres and Metres The Same Thing?
You can use square meters anytime you wish to know the area of space. Square meters are typically used for flooring, landscaping, and agricultural purposes.
How Many Square Metres Is A 10 x 10 Room?
A 10 m x 10 m room has an area of exactly 100 square meters, as shown by:
10 m × 10 m = 100 sq m
How Many Square Metres Is A 9 x 3 Room?
A 9 m x 3 m room has an area of exactly 27 square meters, as shown by:
9 m × 3 m = 127 sq m
What Does “Per Square Metre” Mean?
“Per square meter” is used whenever you are dividing some quantity by a total area, measured in square meters, for instance, to find a unit price. For example, if you want to resurface a 60 square meter lounge room and the total cost is $3,000, then the price per square meter is $50, as shown by:
$3,000 / 60 Square Metres = $50 per square meter
$3,000 divided by 60 Square Metres = $50 / Per Square Metre
Do I Need To Turn Off My Air-con And Fire Alarms?
Yes, while we are repairing your concrete with various tools and different methods, we do try to keep the dust to an absolute minimum. (But Dust still may occur, so you must turn off air conditioning units as well as isolate, switch off and cover your fire alarms as dust will set them off)
Do I Need To Hire A Skip Bin?
No, Other Concrete Cancer Repair contractors and Concrete Cancer Repair companies, regardless of job size, will make you hire a skip bin, which will cost a huge amount ($375 – $1,000+) and will have to sit in your front yard for days while you deal with the annoyance of organising it and the large cost of the whole process.
Here at Concrete Cancer Repairs Sydney, we come in, repair your Concrete Cancer. After repairs, our team will sweep and vacuum your property to clean up any dust!
Then, once we are finished, we will also take all the waste to a local resource management centre for you (Recycling whenever possible), which will be far cheaper than you having to hire a skip bin and dealing with the frustration of that whole process! (On average, our clients save 60% on disposal of waste charges)
What Equipment Does Our Team Use?
This is a small range of the equipment that we use on our projects.
Are Our Concrete Cancer Repair Services Dust-Free?
Will The Job Be 100% Dust-Free?
How do we achieve an almost 90 – 99.99% Dust-Free Concrete Cancer Repair experience for our clients?
Here at Dust-Free Concrete Cancer Repairs Sydney, we specialise in Dust-Free Concrete Cancer Repairs. We employ a specialty system that suctions and removes dust and debris directly from our tools into a powerful commercial dust extractor. Our equipment is powerful, strong, and guaranteed to significantly reduce, or even completely eradicate, the dust and debris that is often associated with Dust-Free Concrete Cancer Repairs and replacement projects.
Our specially designed dust-free equipment makes the Concrete Cancer Repair process much faster than traditional Concrete Cancer Repairs. It is also more efficient than traditional removal techniques and is substantially cleaner and safer. This gives our Dust-Free Concrete Cancer Repairs process the added benefit of being the most environmentally friendly solution.
After the Dust-Free Concrete Cancer Repairs process, we will grind your concrete slab with the use of high-powered Dust-Free Concrete Grinding equipment that is connected directly to a high-powered commercial dust extractor. We will also perform demolition services with the use of high-powered commercial dust extraction equipment plugged directly into our tools.
Unfortunately, small amounts of dust are still produced and cannot be eliminated even with the most expensive high-end equipment and the latest technology. It should also be noted that certain equipment, such as Jackhammers, has a harder time trying to contain the dust, even with the use of high-end dust extractors. Concrete Grinders can contain dust a lot more easily. (Roughly 90 – 99.99% of the dust is still sucked up by a 3-engine high-powered commercial dust extractor that is plugged directly into the equipment) But sometimes, a small amount of dust can still escape.
If you are concerned about the small amounts of dust that may get into areas that we are not working in, such as the kitchens, bathrooms, cabinets, etc., we would advise that you seal off those areas that we are not working in with plastic and sticky tape before our team arrives to avoid delays.

Concrete Cancer Repair Specialists Sydney
Treating concrete cancer is highly, highly recommended to be done by a professional. When you have concrete cancer, the spread of it must be shut down. Otherwise, the structural integrity of the building will be compromised, and you could be facing exorbitant prices to fix it, or even have the entire building destroyed.
Concrete Cancer Repair involves removing damaged concrete and treating or replacing corroded steel reinforcement bars, followed by patching and waterproofing to prevent future re occurring damage. The process typically includes saw cutting the perimeter of the affected area, cleaning and treating the exposed steel, and applying a repair mortar or concrete to restore the structure’s integrity. Waterproofing membranes are crucial for long-term protection.
It should be noted that most buildings from the 1920s to the 1990s have Magnesite Flooring in the unit. This rapidly increases the speed of concrete cancer and should be removed and fixed ASAP.
Properties closer to the ocean/beaches will also have Concrete Cancer start rapidly, a lot faster than properties that are not near the ocean/beaches. Salt hastens the rusting process, so buildings along the coastline are more susceptible to concrete cancer due to salt in the air.

TESTIMONIALS
“I had absolutely no idea what to do when we had a pipe burst in our property, but thankfully Carpet Removal Sydney had a 24-hour emergency assistance team that did an absolutely amazing job with the removal of the carpet that had been completely soaked, called them up at 2 am on a Tuesday and they were here within 30minutes. Couldn’t be happier with their services!”
“Excellent service from the team at Carpet Removal Sydney. Will definitely use their services again, was absolutely amazed at how much money I saved going through Carpet Removal Sydney instead of going through Carpet Court.”
“Thanks again boys! really happy with how my shop looks now! i knew ripping out the carpet was the best option, definitely looks a lot better with a clean smooth slab so that i could install a nice hardwood floor”
“He has great product knowledge and took the time to thoroughly explain the differences of each carpet in a simple way. He has a very personable manner and is very friendly and polite. He explained the process well provided a competitive quote. He was flexible with the install date (as I had some other trades finishing off work before the carpet could be installed) and worked with me to secure a date that suited both parties. I had an issue with the underlay requirements due to strata laws and Declan was very helpful in helping me source the correct underlay to meet strata requirements. I believe he went over and above his role to assist me. The floors are amazing! I’m extremely happy with the choice and the whole process. Thank you Declan. I hope Carpet Removal Sydney realise what an asset you are to their team. ”
“Thanks again for your help guys, I really appreciate you coming so far to do such a small job”
“Was completely gobsmacked at the quotes that I got from 3 other company’s on the northern beaches and how outrageously high they were just to remove the carpet in a shop I had recently purchased. So it was such a relief when my friend recommended I try out Carpet Removal Sydney and I ended up saving over $3,000, Thanks again!”
“You were very professional, well dressed, well mannered and quick. I will recommend your services to our friends. Thanks again!”
“Can’t argue with cheapest prices, best customer services, and same day service! very impressed!”
“I was shocked when I had realised that my daughter had spilled my paint set all over my new carpet in my rental property, had no idea what to do, everything I tried failed, gave Carpet Removal Sydney a quick call and they gave me free advice over the phone, with no charge that actually worked! Thank you so much!”
“Very impressed with your team members high quality work. You all arrived on time, you did an amazing job finish the removal process and installation process without damaging anything. (My last two experiences with carpet layers from carpet court they both damaged the skirting boards and a piece of furniture) So thanks for giving me faith again that a job can be completed without my property being damaged. And thanks to your team for helping me in such short notice due to my unit having flood damage! Really appreciate everything that you did for me!”
“The boys at Carpet Removal Sydney went out of their way to help me so much as I wasn’t able to move a lot of the furniture myself as my back isn’t great. I also saved over $400 getting the carpet removed by these guys! Would recommend, thanks again!”
“I always recommend Carpet Removal Sydney when a tenant moves out of one of our properties if the carpet needs to be replaced. They always do an amazing job, leave the property clean and save our clients hundreds and sometimes even thousands.”
“I attempted a carpet removal job my self in my new office only to realise the job was commercially glued down, needless to say as a I.T nerd i had absolutely no chance of removing it haha. I thought i would give a few companys a call to request a quote on how much the removal process would cost… and my god i was shocked at the overwhelming expense of how much commercial carpet removal costs… I was so relieved though when i stumbled across Carpet Removal Sydney (One of my co-workers recently had their team out to remove carpet in a new house they purchased) and was relieved when i finally found a company that was willing to do it for a fair price. I was a little concerned at the start due to their price being so much lower than all of their competitors, but my co-worker re assured me that they had an amazing team. I was quite relieved when the whole process was over and they had done such an amazing job for almost a third of their competitors prices. Thanks again lads! If you ever need a computer fixed hit me up! ”
“The boys at Carpet Removal Sydney also did an absolutely amazing job with the removal as well as the installation of my carpet as well after it was flooded by my dishwasher overnight. Called them up at 6 pm, they were also there the next day and completed the take up the same day! Really happy with the result.”
