Welcome to Contract Solutions Australia
When concrete cancer threatens your building’s structural integrity, you need more than just a patching contractor—you need specialists who can diagnose the root cause, access any height safely, and deliver repairs that last.
Contract Solutions Australia combines 20+ years of high-rise concrete repair expertise with advanced rope access capabilities, eliminating the scaffolding costs and delays that plague traditional concrete repair projects. From initial assessment through final protective coating, we handle the complete concrete restoration process—at any height.

Concrete cancer (also called concrete spalling or concrete delamination) occurs when moisture penetrates concrete and reaches the steel reinforcement bars (rebar) inside. The steel rusts, expands up to 10 times its original volume, and forces the surrounding concrete to crack, flake, or blow apart.
Left untreated, concrete cancer progressively worsens, spreading to adjacent areas and potentially compromising structural integrity. The visible rust stains and spalling concrete are symptoms—the real problem lies beneath.

Penetrating Sealers: Invisible protection that repels water while maintaining concrete breathability
Chloride Barriers: Specialized coatings for coastal or high-chloride environments
Traditional concrete repair contractors face a major obstacle: access. Ground-level repairs are straightforward, but the moment concrete damage occurs above ground floor, costs explode:
CSA’s rope access concrete repair eliminates these barriers entirely.
Our IRATA-certified rope access technicians reach concrete at any height with:
This isn’t just about cost—it’s about doing the job properly. Our technicians can inspect every square meter of concrete surfaces via rope access, identifying all affected areas before repair planning. Ground-based contractors often miss problems or make assumptions from binocular inspections.
