Concrete Cancer & Spalling Repair in Coogee
Coogee faces the open ocean, and salt air reaches the seaward elevation of its buildings, so which way a façade points belongs in the assessment. When salt reaches the steel inside the concrete, the steel rusts and can crack the concrete over it. Most of Coogee's dwellings are flats, so acting on that assessment is usually an owners corporation's call.

Timing and lead times in Coogee
