The Concrete Floor Finishes Process
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Fill out our website form and we’ll get in touch via your preferred method of communication. Let us know what part of your house or business you want to coat and why. Even if you are not 100% sure about this type of floor coating, let us help you determine if a polyurea floor coating will be the best choice for your needs.
2. Consultation and Assessment
Our process begins with a thorough consultation. You can expect an in-depth assessment of your space to evaluate its condition, surface type, and any specific requirements. You’ll also receive a free quote on the spot.
When you are ready, schedule the installation and prepare your space, removing everything including any vehicles, storage boxes, or furniture.
3. Floor Preparation and Coating Application
If any repairs are required before the polyurea application, our team will take care of them. We fix any pits and cracks for a smooth surface. After the polyurea coating is applied, we conduct a rigorous inspection to ensure the finish meets our stringent quality standards.
Unlike traditional coatings, polyurea dries quickly, minimizing downtime and allowing you to enjoy your transformed space sooner.
4. Post-Installation Support
We provide guidance on how to care for your newly coated floors, ensuring they remain in pristine condition for years to come.
How Do I Prepare My Floor?
All you need to do before our team comes to apply any floor coating is remove everything from the space we will be working. Any vehicles, storage boxes, furniture, or other items must be removed and stored elsewhere.
When our team arrives, technicians get to work preparing the concrete, ensuring it is in premium condition to allow the coating to adhere properly. We work efficiently to complete this job, while still maintaining high standards. Our team will ensure the area is prepped properly so you get the best results and flooring that will last for many years.
During the prepping process, we perform the following services:
Grind concrete surface: We use a diamond-bit Lavina grinder to create a coarse and porous surface as well as to remove any weak or deteriorated concrete. Our grinders feature three grinding wheels that work in unison to open the pores of your concrete. We will also use hand grinders to prepare detailed areas and vertical surfaces.
Contain concrete dust: Each of the grinders is used with a high-powered vacuum to contain dust created by the grinding. This ensures the area stays clean.
Remove contaminants: Concrete can absorb contaminants, such as oil, grease, and gas, when they are spilled on its surface. Grinding usually removes surface contaminants, but in instances where they have penetrated deep, we use a degreaser to lift oil from the concrete. Our coating has also been formulated with an oil base, so even if the oil cannot be fully removed, the coating will still bond appropriately.
Remove latent layer: The main purpose of grinding the surface of your concrete is to remove the latent layer that formed when the slab was originally curing. This layer has minimal pores and is the weakest layer of the concrete, making it vital to remove before coating the slab. The latent layer is about 1/16th of an inch thick, so we’ll grind to that depth in order to remove it fully.
