Frequently asked questions

Epoxy flooring chemically bonds into the concrete substrate through mechanical preparation, creating a durable protective system. Standard paints primarily sit on the surface without providing the same adhesion strength or long-term durability.

Epoxy flooring is a high-performance resin flooring system installed over mechanically prepared concrete to improve durability, abrasion resistance, chemical protection and long-term surface performance.

Yes. The reflective properties of polished concrete improve light reflectivity within the environment, which may contribute to brighter interiors and improved visual clarity across large spaces.

Many existing slabs can be polished depending on substrate condition, contamination levels, structural integrity and previous surface treatments. Surface preparation and corrective procedures may be required before polishing begins.

Yes. Polished concrete systems are known for low maintenance requirements. The seamless refined surface simplifies cleaning while reducing dust accumulation and long-term maintenance demands.

A densifier is a chemical treatment applied during the polishing process that reacts with the concrete substrate to increase surface hardness, reduce dusting and improve long-term abrasion resistance.

Despite its reflective appearance, properly finished polished concrete can maintain safe traction levels. Surface conditions, maintenance practices and environmental exposure influence slip characteristics. Additional slip-resistant treatments may also be incorporated when required.

Polished concrete follows the behavior of the underlying slab. Existing structural cracking, slab movement and joint conditions may require remediation before polishing procedures begin.
