THE COATING CREW FAQ
We install Polyurea and Epoxy. We select the best material for your specific application.
Regardless of age, we treat all concrete surfaces the same by diamond grinding the entire floor prior to coating application.
HEPA filtration vacuums are always used in conjunction with all grinding of the slab.
Coated concrete is completely sealed, standing water if not removed can be slippery. When applying the final coat to the floor we make sure texture is present. If slipping is a concern, ask about additional anti-slip.
We treat cracks and divots prior to any coating application.
If the concrete moves beyond the flex of the material cracks may reappear.
In most cases, household goods can be returned to the floor after 24 hours of completion. Vehicles can safely return to the floor after 36 hours of completion.
Most coating applications are completed the day of scheduled installation. Depending on size and condition of the concrete some applications may take longer.
We require a down payment for reserved installation with payment in full upon completion.
We’re licensed and insured in Lee County and Collier County.
We recommend using a mild detergent like Dawn or Simple Green with water. A little detergent goes a long ways. Most clients wet down the surface, scrub any stubborn grime and squeegee out the dirty water and rinse very well. Power washing is ok at a low pressure.
We don’t repair existing floor coatings.
With proper care and normal use your floor should last as long as you own the property.
Yes, coatings do emit odor, most materials are low in VOC’s and environmentally safe. Odor will dissipate after a few days of completion.
Our coatings are UV stable to minimize discoloration
Our coating is very chemical resistant to oil, salt and gasoline but corrosives and solvents can cause staining to our floors (ie. Battery acid, brake fluid, paint thinner, tire dressing)
Wipe up any corrosives or solvents in a timely manner. Be conscientious of chemical spills.
We can coat outside but require the majority of the concrete surface to be covered by a roof.
We do not apply our coatings around any surfaces surrounding water.
Cost of the floor coating is dependent on size of the area, condition of the concrete and location.
Please make sure the concrete floor is obstruction free, dry, and well-lit prior to installation.
Do not induce any moisture to the floor prior to the coating application. Keep any wet vehicles off the area (ie. AC Condensation, rainwater, or residual carwash water)
If you decide to paint, please do so a week or two prior to installation and ventilate well to make sure the walls are cured prior to coating. We do our best to keep walls as clean as possible but a little touch-up painting may be needed. Paint holds water while curing and during humid months it can cause a concrete floor to condensate.
If weather delays your project we move the installation to the next available week on the calendar.
Whether it’s a leaf or a lizard, wait until the coating is fully cured to remove any debris.
