The Problem: What Alberta’s Climate Does to Concrete & Asphalt
| Freeze-Thaw Cycling — Water infiltrates micro-cracks and expands when it freezes, widening existing cracks and spalling the surface progressively each season. Alberta’s dramatic seasonal swings accelerate this dramatically. | Vehicle Loads & Traffic — Heavy vehicle traffic accelerates surface fatigue on untreated concrete, particularly at parking lot edges, aprons, and loading dock surfaces. |
| Road Salt & De-Icers — Salt lowers the freeze point of water, keeping it liquid at temperatures that cause expansion inside concrete pores — amplifying freeze-thaw damage. Salt also accelerates rebar corrosion in reinforced concrete. | Oil & Grease Staining — Petroleum products penetrate untreated concrete and create staining, surface degradation, and adhesion problems for future sealants. |
| UV Oxidation — Asphalt surfaces oxidize under Alberta’s intense UV radiation, causing surface brittleness, cracking, and aggregate loss. | Efflorescence — Calcium deposits from within concrete migrate to the surface, causing unsightly white staining and indicating ongoing moisture movement through the slab. |

EM Treat — Efflorescence & Mineral Deposit Remover
Targeted treatment for white staining and mineral deposits on masonry
KEY BENEFITS
- Powerful detergent-based solution for multi-surface efflorescence
- Works on block, brick, mortar, cast concrete, coloured concrete, synthetic and architectural stone
- Removes existing mineral deposits and prevents rapid reappearance
- Compatible with most masonry surfaces
- Formulated for surface renovation and preparation
APPLICATIONS
Brick and block exterior walls, basement foundation walls with efflorescence, coloured concrete with white mineral staining, architectural concrete features, retaining walls, pool decks.
📋 Efflorescence indicates ongoing moisture movement through the structure. Treating the surface appearance should be combined with moisture source investigation.

Stucco & EIFS Protection
Stucco and EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems) are common exterior cladding materials in Alberta — and among the most vulnerable to moisture infiltration when their surface finish begins to crack or degrade.
NanoProtect applies a penetrating nano-protective treatment to stucco and EIFS surfaces that creates a breathable hydrophobic barrier — preventing moisture infiltration without trapping vapour behind the surface. This is especially important for Alberta’s freeze-thaw climate, where moisture trapped in stucco cracks causes rapid, progressive damage.
| ✔ Moisture infiltration prevention — nano hydrophobic barrier across the surface | ✔ Preserves stucco appearance — does not change colour or texture |
| ✔ Breathable formula — moisture vapour can still escape, no trapping | ✔ Compatible with painted and natural stucco finishes |
| ✔ Freeze-thaw protection — stops water from entering and expanding in surface cracks | ✔ Compatible with EIFS systems in good condition |
| ✔ Stain and biological growth resistance | ✔ Extends surface life significantly without re-coating or repainting |

Frequently Asked Questions — Concrete & Asphalt
Will the treatment change the appearance of my driveway?
GoNano Concrete Saver is a penetrating treatment — it does not leave a visible surface film, gloss, or colour change. Your driveway looks the same but performs significantly better. PRO Tek Concrete also maintains a natural appearance. PRO Surface HD creates a new wear surface and will visibly restore a damaged concrete surface.
How does PRO Tek Concrete differ from regular concrete sealer?
Standard concrete sealers sit on the surface and eventually wear away. PRO Tek Concrete’s modified sodium silicate formula penetrates into the concrete pores and chemically bonds, permanently densifying and waterproofing from within. It cannot wear off because it becomes part of the concrete structure — not a coating on top of it.
Can you treat concrete that already has cracks?
Minor surface cracks can be treated — our penetrating products help seal micro-fissures. Structural cracks require repair before treatment. We’ll assess the severity during inspection and advise on sequencing.
How long does treatment last?
GoNano Concrete Saver provides multi-year protection. PRO Tek Concrete is designed for the life of the concrete — it doesn’t wear off. Specific performance expectations are discussed during the assessment.
Do you treat both residential driveways and commercial parking lots?
Yes. We work across all scales, from single residential driveways to large commercial parking lots and institutional campus walkways. Volume pricing is available for commercial portfolios.
