Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Our Floor Coatings

General Questions

What types of coatings do you install?

We install epoxy and polyurea systems for both residential and commercial surfaces.

Do you repair cracks before coating?

Yes. Cracks, pits, and damaged areas are repaired with mender before the coating is applied.

How do you prepare the concrete?

We diamond-grind the surface to open the concrete and remove weak or contaminated layers. This step is essential for strong adhesion.

Can coatings be installed on any concrete?

We work on both new and old concrete, as long as the surface is structurally sound.

Installation and Timing

How long does installation take?

Most projects are completed in one day. Larger or heavily damaged surfaces may take longer.

When can the floor be used again?

Foot traffic is usually allowed after 24 hours.
Vehicles can return after about 36 hours.

Is the process dusty?

Grinding produces dust, but our HEPA-filtered vacuums help keep the area clean.

Performance and Durability

How long do the coatings last?

With proper care, coatings can last for many years. For most homeowners, the system lasts as long as they own the property.

Are the coatings slippery?

Coated concrete can become slippery if water sits on the surface. We add texture to improve traction, and additional anti-slip material can be added upon request.

Do cracks come back after coating?

If the concrete moves due to shifting or settling, cracks can reappear. The coating itself does not prevent structural movement.

Maintenance

How do I clean the surface?

Use mild detergents such as Simple Green or Dawn. Rinse well with water. Low-pressure power washing is acceptable.

Do coatings stain?

Coated concrete is sealed and more resistant to staining than bare concrete. Spills should still be cleaned to avoid long-term discoloration.

Project and Payment

Do you give estimates?

Yes. Estimates are free and come with no obligation.

What payments do you accept?

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, and cash.

Do you coat pool decks?

Liquid Granite is used around pools and in direct sunlight. We do not coat the immediate wet zone around pools.
