  • What are the benefits of installing a coating on your floor?

    Our hybrid material (epoxy/polyurea) combined with a durable polyaspartic topcoat offers unmatched performance in a concrete floor coating system: Durability: Withstands heavy impacts, abrasions, and traffic Chemical resistance: Resists oil, chemicals, and other substances Easy maintenance: Low-maintenance and simple to clean Moisture protection: Built-in moisture vapor barriers help prevent damage Customizable aesthetics: Available in various colors, decorative flakes, and quartz finishes Longevity: Provides long-term protection for concrete surfaces UV resistance: A polyaspartic topcoat helps prevent discoloration or yellowing
  • Why is the hybrid material better than standard epoxy?

    While epoxy is a strong and reliable material, the hybrid (epoxy/polyurea) system offers enhanced flexibility, durability, and resistance to temperature fluctuations. It is ideal for residential and commercial environments, especially in high-traffic or high-impact areas. Combined with a polyaspartic topcoat, it creates a seamless, long-lasting epoxy floor coating finish.
  • What is the process for installing a floor coating?

    Our installation process is designed for precision and lasting results using an epoxy floor coating system: Grind the concrete to open its pores and ensure proper adhesion Vacuum and remove all dust for a clean surface Repair cracks, chips, or imperfections in the concrete Apply a base coat of epoxy or our hybrid (epoxy/polyurea) material Add decorative flakes or quartz for texture and style (optional) Seal the surface with a polyaspartic topcoat for superior protection and durability
  • How long can a professionally installed floor coating system last?

    With proper prep work and high-quality materials, a concrete floor coating can last for decades. According to Flooring Clarity, epoxy floors last 10 to 20 years when properly maintained, depending on usage and conditions.
  • How long does it take to complete a flooring project?

    In our experience, most residential projects can be completed in one day, while larger commercial spaces may take longer. The timeline depends on factors like surface condition and square footage. Working with an experienced polished concrete contractor helps ensure the project is completed efficiently and correctly.
  • Are there disadvantages of floor coatings?

    When installed by professionals like Precision Floor Coatings, a concrete floor coating does not really have disadvantages. However, there are many low-quality products and contractors who do not complete proper prep work, which can lead to early failure. Hiring an experienced polished concrete contractor with the right equipment, materials, and expertise helps ensure long-term performance and durability.
  • Are epoxy floors slippery?

    Epoxy floors are not inherently slippery, but high-gloss surfaces can sometimes become slick when wet. To prevent this, our epoxy floor coating systems include anti-slip additives, such as a high-wear urethane coat, decorative flakes, or quartz, which add texture and improve traction. This makes them a great option for areas where safety is a concern, like garages, kitchens, or commercial spaces.
  • Can you put a coating on damaged concrete?

    Yes, we can! Before applying any concrete floor coating, we repair cracks, chips, and other imperfections in the concrete to ensure a smooth, durable finish. Our process includes grinding, patching, and prepping the surface to create the ideal foundation for our hybrid (epoxy/polyurea) material and polyaspartic topcoat. Even heavily damaged concrete can often be restored and protected with our coatings.
  • How do I maintain my coated floors?

    Our floors are easy to maintain, especially with an epoxy floor coating system: Sweep or dust regularly to remove debris Mop with warm water and a gentle cleaner when needed Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools that could damage the surface
  • Can your coatings be customized?

    Absolutely! We offer a range of customization options for your concrete floor coating to suit your style and functional needs: Color options to match your space Decorative flakes or quartz for added texture and visual appeal Unique stains and pigments to create eye-catching designs
