Testimonials

"Somehow I managed to get floor leveler down the drain of the new shower I was building. I had two options, both of which were unpleasant: (i) break through the floor or (ii) cut through a wall in order to replace the blocked pipe. I learned of a third option, “CrocCrete®”… 24 hours later the drain was running clear. I don’t believe in miracles, but this is some serious chemistry… no damage to the pvc pipe, really cool niche solution to a niche problem. Thank you CrocCrete®!"

"Honestly thought we would have to chip out the shower I just installed or dig under the house. Thank God I found Croc-Crete®. I did exactly as the guy I called at the company suggested and today we broke through, and we have water running freely through the pipes. This product is well worth the money. It saved me money and a huge headache."

Jamie M.

"I was hesitant, and even though it is pricey the alternative of chopping up concrete made me buy it and try it. It works amazing, follow the instructions and some patience required, but it works. it softened the grout that seeped into the trap and had hardened and cleared the drain completely."

Dan J.

"I had a 3/4" electrical conduit that accidentally had shotcrete blasted into it. We didn't notice that no one had covered the conduit the day of the concrete pour. Weeks later I realized the conduit was complete blocked, and figured I was going to have to saw-cut and chip out a new channel for the conduit. Then I found Croc Crete®. I called Don, he walked me through the steps and believe it or not the blockage was slowly eaten away, it was amazing and saved me $3-$5K easily."

I am a master plumber in Texas with my own plumbing company that I started over 40 years ago. I recently did an addition on my ranch home and my tile guy accidentally poured Floor Float into my drain line for my new shower. I discovered the problem when the shower was completely finished. The trap was completely filled up to floor level with the concrete. We were able to use muriatic acid and a rock bar to clean out the front half of the Ptrap.. I spent two weeks using muriatic acid and another product to try to clear out the rest of the concrete without success. One of my plumbers found your product online and we ordered a gallon and received it 3 days later. The first 24 hours we put it down the drain and let it sit. We removed the product from the drain and ran a sewer auger and to our surprise we had removed another 2 inches of concrete. We then poured another dose of your product down the drain and let it sit for another 24 hours. When we removed the product and ran the auger again the auger broke through the remaining concrete and the line was clean. The guys ran my sewer camera down the shower line to confirm all the concrete was gone. Before using your product, I was going to have to jackhammer and dig down to replace the P-trap and pipe in my shower. My wife was very pleased that we didn’t have to do that to clear the drain on her brand new completely finished shower. I will be using your product for all future concrete issues we encounter in sewer lines. I will also recommend your product to all of my plumbing contractors that I know. It was the best $350.00 I’ve spent in a long time. Saved me lots of money and time on the finish out of our master suite. Thank you

Frequently Asked Questions

What dissolves concrete?

A concrete dissolver is a chemical product engineered to break down hardened concrete inside pipes and conduits without mechanical force. Croc-Crete® dissolves the Portland cement binder in the deposit, turning the cured concrete into a slurry of loose sand and aggregate that flushes out of the line.

What breaks down concrete?

Croc-Crete® breaks down concrete by dissolving the cement binder that holds the aggregate together. Once the binder lets go, what was a solid plug becomes loose material that flushes, vacuums, or rods out of the line. The product doesn't soften concrete into a workable state; it reduces the cured concrete deposit to its individual components for removal.

Can you dissolve concrete in pipes?

Yes. Croc-Crete® is engineered specifically for in-pipe applications. It's safe to use in pipes made of PVC, UPVC, ABS, fiberglass, and HDPE, plus cast iron in good condition and copper with proper care. The product handles concrete, mortar, tile grout, floor leveling compound, and stucco, which end up in sewer lines, drains, conduits, and pool drains during construction or remodeling.

How do you use it safely?

Croc-Crete® is engineered for use by licensed plumbers, drain and sewer specialists, restoration contractors, and other qualified trades. Standard handling protocol calls for gloves, eye and face protection, a respirator rated per the SDS, and proper ventilation in confined work areas. Follow the application instructions on the product label. For professional use only.

What dissolves Portland cement?

A concrete dissolver formulated to target the binding agent in Portland-cement-based materials. Croc-Crete® works on the cement binder specifically, leaving the aggregate behind for removal. The product dissolves concrete, mortar, tile grout, floor leveling compound, and stucco.

How do you dissolve concrete?

You dissolve concrete with a chemical dissolver, not with mechanical force. Croc-Crete® targets the Portland cement binder in the deposit and reduces the cured material to loose sand and aggregate. The chemistry is selective: it works on the cement, not the pipe wall.

How long does it take to dissolve concrete?

A standard application cycle runs 24 to 48 hours with Croc-Crete® held against the deposit. After the cycle, the spent product is removed, the slurry is flushed out, and the line is re-inspected. Thicker deposits may need a second application or more for complete removal.
