Concrete & Flooring Services
Concrete Polishing
Polished concrete floors are renowned for their exceptional value and longevity. As a sustainable flooring option, they utilize the existing foundation or subfloor, eliminating the need for extensive materials, which makes them both cost-effective and environmentally friendly. When properly maintained, polished concrete can endure for generations, offering a lower concrete flooring cost over its lifespan compared to other flooring types. Additionally, polished concrete isn’t limited to just floors—we also specialize in creating stunning polished cement countertops and tabletops that add a modern, durable touch to any home.
Concrete polishing is a meticulous, multi-step process that combines mechanical grinding and chemical hardening to create a resilient and shiny concrete floor. The process begins with concrete grinding and polishing to expose the desired aggregate and achieve the right profile. The surface is then honed to refine the texture, followed by densification to strengthen and harden the floor. Finally, the floor is polished to the desired sheen, with a protective sealer applied as the finishing touch. Custom colors and designs can be integrated into the floor, offering unique interior polished concrete floors tailored to your aesthetic.
Pricing typically ranges between $5-$10 per square foot, depending on factors such as the existing floor condition, design complexity, aggregate size, and desired sheen level. Whether you're considering a polished concrete kitchen floor or a polished garage floor, our services are designed to deliver high-quality, durable, and beautiful results that stand the test of time.
Concrete Coatings
Concrete coatings are the ideal choice when your flooring requires a more robust, durable system with added aesthetic appeal. With years of experience, we offer a wide range of coatings for concrete to meet various functional and design needs. Among these, epoxy coatings with flake or color chips are particularly popular due to their superior aesthetic quality and texture. This system is commonly used in garages, healthcare facilities, food service environments, and industrial spaces where flooring needs to withstand harsh conditions for up to 20 years. Additionally, we can integrate integral cove to create a seamless transition from floor to wall, enhancing both functionality and appearance. With a vast array of color combinations available for epoxy and flake systems, you can fully customize your floor to match your design preferences.
Specialized Concrete Coating Systems
Concrete coatings come in various forms, each tailored to specific use cases. The installation process typically begins with grinding the top layer of the concrete to remove any laitance or contaminants and to provide a suitable surface profile for optimal bonding. Once the surface is prepared, voids and joints are filled, and any excess patch material is removed, leaving the floor ready for coating.
For epoxy coatings with a flake or color chip broadcast, the process involves:
Moisture Barrier Application: The first coat acts as a standalone moisture barrier to protect the coating from moisture vapor damage.
Base Coat: The base coat is applied, into which the flakes or color chips are broadcast.
Topcoat: A clear topcoat is then applied to seal and protect the underlying layers, ensuring long-lasting durability.
Pricing for Concrete Coatings
The cost of concrete coatings varies based on factors such as material costs, the existing condition of the floor, and additional features like integral cove or skirt walls. Generally, pricing ranges as follows:
Basic Coating for Concrete: Simple, flat, one-color systems start around $4 per square foot.
Flake Broadcast Systems: These systems typically range from $5 to $9 per square foot, depending on the complexity.
Metallic Epoxy Coatings: For intricate and highly decorative metallic epoxy coatings, prices can go up to $15 per square foot.
These pricing tiers reflect the level of customization, materials, and labor required to achieve the desired finish.
Exterior Concrete and Deck Sealing
s your driveway, deck, or patio showing signs of wear and tear? Stains, cracks, or general surface damage can detract from the beauty and functionality of your outdoor spaces. Cleaning and sealing exterior surfaces is a crucial step in revitalizing these areas, restoring their original luster, and significantly extending their lifespan. Whether it's your deck, patio, or concrete driveway, our professional sealing services act as a protective shield against the elements, ensuring your surfaces remain beautiful and durable for years to come.
Why Sealing is Essential for Exterior Surfaces
The old adage "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" is particularly true when it comes to maintaining your exterior surfaces. Regular sealing offers several key benefits:
Protection from the Elements: Sealing provides a barrier against moisture, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations, all of which can cause significant damage over time. This is especially important for wood decks and concrete surfaces, which are prone to cracking, splintering, or staining if left unprotected.
Enhanced Appearance: Over time, exposure to the elements can cause exterior surfaces to fade and lose their vibrancy. Sealing brings back the rich colors and textures of your deck or concrete, making them look as good as new.
Increased Longevity: Regular sealing can double or even triple the lifespan of your deck, patio, or driveway. By preventing water infiltration and reducing the risk of damage, you save on costly repairs or replacements down the line.

Grind and Seal
Concrete sealing offers an economical way to achieve a long-lasting, visually appealing floor that closely resembles polished concrete, without the higher costs associated with full concrete polishing. The grind and seal process involves grinding the concrete surface to the desired level of smoothness and then applying a clear sealer to protect the floor. Depending on the level of honing required, this option can be significantly more affordable, often costing half or less than that of a true polished concrete floor.
The grind and seal method is an excellent choice for those who want the look of polished concrete but are working within a budget. This approach provides the same durability and ease of maintenance as polished concrete, making it a practical solution for various residential and commercial applications. The end result is a shiny concrete floor that enhances the aesthetic appeal of your space while providing long-lasting protection against wear and tear.
