Bolt removal treatment

STEP 1: Bolt or anchor removal

Often a bolt can be removed simply by unscrewing it.

Protruding anchors may be removed using and angle grinder of a ©Boltbreaker. Any protruding metal may be pounded into the concrete using a heavy hammer.

A steel anchor is stubborn and its removal will usually cause damage to the concrete floor. At the very least, it will leave a hole.

STEP 2: Hole repair

The sealing of the hole consists of milling, cleaning and sealing with adherent filling materials; usually polyurethane based mortars are used to guarantee a degree of flexibility in the repair.

When the bolt and anchor removal process is complete we recommend treating your floor to a complete treatment with the BECOSAN® System leaving your floor shiny and new ready for many more years of wear and tear.
