Step 2 - Floor preparation

We stand out from other floor coating companies by solely using diamond grinders to prepare the surface of your concrete. Instead of opting for the convenience of acid washing, diamond grinding provides a more effective method for preparing the surface for coating, extending the life of your floor and ensuring the best adhesion possible. The diamond grinding process creates a rough surface, removes any damaged or weak concrete and leaves the surface ready for coating. Just like wood must be sanded before staining, concrete must be profiled before coating.

Step 3 - Concrete reconstruction

The next step in our installation process is to repair and reconstruct your concrete floor. We have a comprehensive approach for fixing cracks, pits, and spalling. Our team uses diamond blades to open up any cracks and reveal any visibly damaged areas in your concrete. Afterwards, we apply a mender product that hardens quickly and cures to be twice as hard as concrete, transforming weak spots into strong points, preparing the surface for the installation of your new flooring.

Step 4 - Coating the floor

In most garage floor applications, we use a polyuria full chip coating system. The process starts with using a small amount of our base coat, a 100% solids self-priming pure polyuria, to cover the edges around the floor. We then mix and pour our primary coating onto the floor in a line and use a roller to distribute it evenly to achieve the desired thickness. We repeat this mixing and rolling process until the surface is fully covered. This system ensures a durable, long-lasting and attractive finish.

Step 5 - Broadcast vinyl chip

Before application, we mix our flake thoroughly to guarantee an even color blend. We then scatter the flake into the wet coating by hand, making sure that the floor is fully covered and uniform in color and texture. Once the basecoat is fully cured, we "cut" and "scrape" any loose or standing flakes. We scrape the floor in multiple directions, front to back and side to side, to ensure that all angles of the chip are covered. This ensures a consistent texture throughout your entire floor.

Step 6 - Clear coat application

After the floor has been prepared, coated, flaked, scraped, and vacuumed, we proceed to the final step of our installation process, which is the application of our 93% solids polyaspartic Polyuria UV stable clear coat. The product is poured directly onto the floor and spread evenly with a soft squeegee to achieve the desired thickness. We then use an 18-inch roller to roll the floor in multiple directions, this takes out any lines left behind by the squeegee and leaves a fine, glossy, clear coat finish. This final step will provide a durable and long-lasting protection and enhance the overall appearance of your floors.

Step 7 - Your new floor coating

You can now enjoy your new concrete coated floor. In normal circumstances, you can walk on your new coating in four to six hours after the topcoat is applied, and park and drive on it 24 hours later.
