Concrete Contractors Near Indiana for Durable Concrete Coating Solutions

Enhanced Safety

Some coating systems can provide improved traction compared with smooth, untreated concrete. This can be helpful in garages, patios, wash bays, service areas, and other locations where water or spills may be present.

A Professional Concrete Coating Process

A quality floor coating starts with proper concrete preparation. The condition of the existing concrete plays an important role in the performance and longevity of the finished coating. Applying a coating over dirt, grease, loose material, or an improperly prepared surface can lead to adhesion problems.

Fortress Concrete Coatings uses mechanical diamond grinding to prepare the concrete and create the appropriate surface profile. This process helps remove surface contaminants and prepares the concrete for the coating system. Cracks and imperfections are then repaired before the primer or base coat is applied.

The coating process generally includes:

1. Inspecting the existing concrete surface
2. Preparing the concrete with mechanical diamond grinding
3. Repairing cracks and surface imperfections
4. Applying the tinted primer or base coat
5. Broadcasting decorative flakes across the surface
6. Removing excess flakes and preparing the floor
7. Applying a clear Polyaspartic Polyurea topcoat
8. Reviewing the completed surface with the customer

The decorative flake layer can add color and texture to the floor, while the clear topcoat helps protect the finished system. This detailed process helps create a strong bond and a finished surface designed for long-term performance.
