Parking Structure Repair
Repair. Restore. Protect.
Parking structures across Utah and the surrounding western states endure some of the harshest conditions there are. Cyclical freeze/thaw, expansion and contraction, deicing salts, and water intrusion are the primary drivers of corrosion and deterioration in concrete and reinforcing steel.
Left unprotected, corrosion takes hold — creating long-term, costly repairs and serious safety hazards for occupants. CDC LC provides innovative solutions to protect your parking structure and reduce those repairs, with a focus on maximizing an owner's ROI.
We combine specialized waterproof coating systems, advanced repair technologies, and decades of experience to protect, repair, and maintain your parking garage.

Robotic Demolition of Post-Tensioned Concrete
Using advanced robotic demolition equipment, CDC LC performs selective demolition and surface preparation in post-tensioned structures — with reduced risk of damaging critical post-tension tendons and minimized worker safety hazards.
On one recent project, two beams had been installed with improper drape in the post-tension tendons. We installed structural shoring, de-stressed the tendons, and removed concrete to allow correction. Repairs were formed, roughly 4 yards of SCC repair mortar were pumped and placed, tendons were re-stressed, and the garage was returned to service.
Vehicular Traffic Coating Systems
We install Neogard Autogard T integral aggregate traffic coating systems on new and existing parking structures, as well as Sika 22 Lo-Mod epoxy and flint traffic coatings — delivering high wear resistance and improved aesthetics.

Frequently asked questions
Why do parking garages deteriorate so quickly in this region?
In the Intermountain West it's mostly the freeze-thaw cycle, deicing-salt chlorides tracked in by vehicles, and water intrusion — which corrode the reinforcing steel and spall the concrete. Left unprotected, that corrosion accelerates and becomes far more expensive to fix.
How do waterproof traffic coatings help?
A traffic coating seals the deck against water and chloride intrusion, stopping the corrosion cycle before it starts and protecting your repair investment. We install high-wear systems like Neogard Autogard T and Sika 22 Lo-Mod that stand up to vehicle traffic.
Can you repair post-tensioned parking decks?
Yes. We repair and replace post-tension tendons and can perform robotic demolition around stressed tendons with reduced risk to the cables.
Do we have to close the garage during repairs?
Rarely all at once. We phase repairs level-by-level or zone-by-zone so most of the structure stays in use throughout the project.
Have a concrete problem worth solving?
From emergency structural repair to full containment retrofits, our crews self-perform the work and stand behind it. Tell us what you're dealing with and we'll schedule a free on-site condition survey.
