Seal Your Concrete Once—Enjoy It for Years
Concrete is a strong, affordable material used for everything from driveways to basketball courts.
It’s made by mixing three main ingredients: gravel or rocks (called aggregate), water, and Portland cement. Once poured, the mixture dries and hardens over time. This process is called curing.
For concrete to cure properly, it needs the right temperature and moisture levels. This helps it stay strong and reduces the chances of cracks. Small cracks may still happen, but that’s normal—even with high-quality concrete.
Sealed Concrete Increases Durability for Your Concrete Base
What is the best way to ensure your patio or garage flooring maintains its longevity for years to come? Epoxy coating provides a sealant for your concrete base, protecting the hardened mixture from damage through drops, spills, cracks, and sun damage.
Here are just some of the benefits you can expect from coating:
Resistance
Epoxy coating protects concrete from oil, spills, and stains. It also adds a tough layer that resists heavy impacts and foot traffic—great for homes and businesses.
Curb Appeal
Epoxy coatings come in many colors and patterns, and you can customize the look. Stamped designs add texture and can mimic brick, tile, or stone. Sealant also protects outdoor concrete from sun fading.
Longevity
Small cracks in concrete can grow fast, especially with weeds or water. Concrete coating helps prevent this by protecting the surface from traffic, heavy furniture, and moisture.
How is Coating Applied?
Here are several steps to the process:
- Concrete is mixed and poured.
- The concrete must dry and finish curing. This process can take a few weeks.
- Once the concrete is ready, contractors utilize a diamond grinder to remove all minuscule imperfections on the concrete surface.
- Epoxy resin is mixed and poured over the concrete surface.
- Flooring is left to cure once more.
The resulting sealant is colored or clear, based on the desired outcome.
