The most critical factor when covering concrete with an epoxy is to prepare the substrate properly. Epoxy floors are designed to adhere tenaciously to existing concrete. However they must have a clean, solid base to grip on to.

That’s why overlooking the prep work, or not doing the job thoroughly, is the most common cause of overlay delamination and failure of the floor which results in starting the process from scratch and thousands of dollars lost in removed material.

Preparing concrete surfaces for coatings, overlays, stains or repair materials is a time-consuming task that many contractors perform begrudgingly or are tempted to overlook altogether. But if you’ve ever skipped this essential first step in the process, you undoubtedly learned the hard way how critical it is to the success of the job. Luckily our staff at City Epoxy Floors complete the grinding inhouse. That’s correct – we do not subcontract our services. Our staff are well trained to know the correct amount to prepare a surface to ensure the epoxy bonds correctly to a surface.

Concrete surfaces are prepared prior to resurfacing concreteto look like plain concrete again or to be upgraded to a decorative finish. Today polymers can be applied as thin as 1/8 “or up to 3/4” thick and stamped, producing a surface that looks just like a normal stamped concrete surface.

Surfaces are prepared prior to various floorcoating installations in industrial, commercial, and institutional applications. The most important characteristic for resurfacing materials or floor coatings is the texture of the concrete.
