How Epoxy Floor
Coatings Are Prepared In Tallahassee
When it comes to the preparation process leading up to the installation of the epoxy floor coating, the process is intricate and we will always recommend only using professionals. Unlike other companies in Tallahassee we always:
- Step 1: To begin the preparation process, we always repair all imperfections in the concrete slab. This includes all cracks, gouges, and all stains will be lifted before the next step.
- Step 2: The next step is done after the material used to repair the cracks has dried. Step 2 is the process of profiling the concrete slab and this can be done one of two ways. One way is using a diamond wheel grinder to open the pores of the concrete slab or the process of shot blasting the concrete slab. Both of these methods profile the concrete
- Step 3: Once the concrete has been completely profiled and a thorough inspection of the concrete slab has been done to make sure all imperfections have been repaired, a coat of epoxy primer is applied and the installation of the epoxy floor coating begins.
Benefits Of
Epoxy Floor Coatings
When you make the choice to go down the path of having an epoxy floor coating installed in your home or facility, you should be happy to know that a ton of benefits is coming with the epoxy floor coating as well. Below are some of the most popular benefits of having an epoxy floor coating:
Superior Durability
The epoxy floor coating is able to handle some pretty serious abuse which is why many garages and commercial facilities. The epoxy floor coating can handle heavy vehicle and foot traffic, an extent of dropped objects and even the use of heavy machinery which would destroy other types of flooring. This is because the super tight bond that is formed between the epoxy resin and the concrete slab so there is no bucking when the floor is used paired with a 100 percent solid epoxy system.
Easy To Maintain
What many business owners and homeowners love about the epoxy floor coating is the fact that maintenance on epoxy flooring is so simple, a monkey could do it. The reason for this is due to the fact that there are no waxes or polishes that need to be applied to the epoxy floor coating to make it shine, the shine comes naturally from the top coat on the epoxy. All you will need to maintain the epoxy floor coating is a soft bristle broom and a mop!
Chemical Resistant
An epoxy floor coating is the perfect flooring system for facilities that need to defend against harsh chemical spills. The epoxy floor coating offers a solid top coat that will isolate all chemical spills and moisture on its topcoat for easy cleanup and disposal. This isolation is crucial as if the concrete slab is allowed to absorb the chemical, it will release it into the surrounding soil and cause major structural damage and even cause an environmental hazard. Keep your facility green with an epoxy floor coating.
Long Lifetime
Another great benefit of using the epoxy floor coating is the fact this is an investment toward your home or business. An epoxy floor coating has the ability to last a long time when it has been properly installed and maintained. If both of these are done correctly, the epoxy floor coating is able to last well over 20 years with many cases of the epoxy lasting well over 30 years.
Fast Install Times
The last benefit of an epoxy floor coating that we will go into is that epoxy can be installed quickly. For this example, we are going to be talking about a 2 car garage. When installing an epoxy floor coating in an area this size, you can expect the job to be done in as little as 2-3 days. Always allow 24 hours before walking on the epoxy.
