“Concrete Cancer” occurs when the steel reinforcement inside your pillars starts to rust, expands, and causes the concrete to burst from within. Since we are located in the humid Purba Medinipur region, this is a constant threat. At De Son Home Solutions, we want your foundation to last a lifetime.
Preventative Maintenance
Check for Hairline Cracks: Every year after the monsoon, inspect your external pillars. If you see tiny cracks, seal them immediately with a specialized grout to prevent water from reaching your Tata Tiscon bars.
Maintain the Plinth: Ensure that the soil around your plinth hasn’t eroded. Exposed foundations are more likely to absorb saline moisture.
The Mandrel Benefit: If you used the De Son Mandrel during construction, your bars are already safer because there are no micro-cracks in the steel ribs to “trap” moisture.
Conclusion
A little inspection today prevents a massive repair bill tomorrow. Keep your “skeleton” dry, and your home will stand for generations.
