Removal of anchors and screws in concrete

To avoid possible accidents, it is essential to remove screws and anchors from concrete floors in all possible areas.

We provide a professional service throughout the UK and the rest of Europe.

We dismantle anchors and screws in industrial floors

Bolt from previous racks need to be removed properly as they can obstruct the smooth traffic flow of vehicles with rigid wheels. Furthermore, in the event of racking replacement hundreds of bolts are visible on the floor and have a negative impact on aesthetics of a warehouse.
Repair works consist in drilling a hole next to the bolt so that it can be lowered into the floor. Subsequently the hole is sealed with BECOSAN® J+C Repair Kit.

Projects

Projects about anchor and screw extractions

We have worked with large national and international companies.

SAINSBURY (UK)
Floor area: 61,500 m² Challenge: Following the complete removal of the previous tenant’s warehouse racking, the concrete floor was left with numerous embedded anchors and bolts that prevented the refurbishment of the slab and delayed the handover to the incoming tenant. In addition, the floor contained cracks, deteriorated joints, epoxy coatings and line markings that had to be removed within a very tight programme. Solution delivered: Systematic removal of the existing anchors and bolts using controlled extraction methods, followed by local concrete repairs to restore a level and uniform surface ready for the remaining refurbishment works. Once the floor had been properly prepared, further repairs were completed before the BECOSAN® treatment was applied. Result: The floor was left completely free of fixing elements and fully prepared for its complete refurbishment. Removing the anchors ensured a continuous, safe and uniform surface, allowing the warehouse to be handed over to the new logistics operator on schedule. The refurbishment of the entire 61,500 m² facility was successfully completed in just 60 days.
PUBLISHER HEADQUARTERS (UK)

Rehabilitation of a 35,000-square-meter warehouse of one of the main English-speaking publishers in the world.

Different industrial repairs were carried out, including the dismantling of all the elements associated with the tenant, which mainly included shelves and mezzanines. The work was finalized with the BECOSAN® treatment.

PROLOGIS (UK)
Surface area: 30,000 m² Context: Logistics warehouse undergoing refurbishment following the departure of a previous tenant from the timber industry. Before the facility could be handed over to a new occupier, the concrete floor required comprehensive rehabilitation. The surface showed clear evidence of previous industrial use, including remaining anchors and fixing points left behind after the removal of equipment and warehouse installations. Work carried out: Removal of existing anchors and screws embedded in the concrete floor as part of the preparation works prior to the BECOSAN® treatment. Eliminating these fixing elements restored the continuity of the floor surface and ensured the concrete was properly prepared for the subsequent repair and treatment stages. Result: A clean, obstruction-free concrete floor ready for full refurbishment. Removing the remaining anchors and screws helped restore a continuous, safe surface, providing the ideal foundation for the complete rehabilitation of the warehouse and its handover to the next tenant.
