The Science of a Perfect Finish:
Our Professional Installation Process

Achieving a showroom-quality floor requires more than just high-end materials; it requires industrial-grade engineering. Whether installing Polished Concrete, Polyaspartic Polyurea, Quartz Carpet or Urethane cement, or our rigorous process ensures a bond that inferior coatings or DIY kits simply cannot match.

Step 1:  Moisture Evaluation & System Selection

Before a single tool touches the floor, we conduct a professional moisture evaluation. During your initial consultation, we analyze the vapor transmission levels of your concrete.

  • The Professional Edge: High moisture levels can cause inferior coatings to peel or bubble. Based on our readings, we select the specific chemistry—such as Moisture Vapor Barriers or Urethane Cement—engineered to thrive in your specific environment.

Step 2:  Industrial Surface Preparation

The Foundation of Longevity
True bonding starts with a precision concrete “profile.” We utilize 700lb diamond-head planetary grinders to open the concrete’s pores, deploying high-impact shot blasters when conditions dictate to ensure maximum adhesion. Specialized 400lb grinders and hand-held units reach every corner, while industrial HEPA-filtered vacuums remain integrated with all equipment to keep your space virtually dust-free throughout the process.

Step 2: Moisture Mitigation (If Required)

The Protective Shield
If our initial evaluation identifies high moisture, we apply a specialized moisture barrier to help seal the slab. This layer is a vital step for the long-term success of high-performance coatings; however, because moisture levels are dynamic and constantly shifting, moisture mitigation can never be absolute. While this barrier is designed to protect your investment, the nature of concrete means that preventing future hydrostatic pressure from damaging your finished floor is not guaranteed. It is also important to note that moisture issues are not always found during the initial evaluation; sometimes, these conditions only become evident once we grind and open the concrete’s pores.

Step 4: Advanced Substrate Mending

Correcting the Canvas
We treat cracks and pits using an award-winning 2-part liquid mender. Once cured, these areas are re-ground to ensure the entire surface is ready to receive the basecoat.

Step 5:  Precision Base Application

The Structural Bond
Depending on your system, the base layer is mixed in small batches to ensure precision and quality. Our technicians hand-apply all edges and vertical surfaces to create a consistent barrier that bonds deeply into the prepared concrete. Because every slab is unique, these layers are expertly installed to follow the natural contours of your floor, ensuring the strongest possible mechanical bond to the substrate.

Step 6: Refinement and Recovery

Once the build layer has cured, we meticulously scrape, hone, or vacuum the surface. This step verifies that the coverage is perfectly even and the texture is exactly as specified.

Step 7: High-Performance Topcoat (Where Applicable)

The Final Shield
We conclude by rolling on a specialized, 2-part Polyaspartic or protective clear coat. This professional-grade finish makes your floor UV-stable, non-porous, and antimicrobial, protecting your investment for a lifetime.
