Introduction: The Foundation of a Flawless Floor
When it comes to installing high-performance floor coatings, the final result is only as good as the surface it’s applied to. Cracks, chips, and surface imperfections in concrete can compromise the durability and appearance of the coating. That’s why crack repairs are an essential part of our preparation process, ensuring a smooth and long-lasting finish.
Why Crack Repairs Matter
Concrete cracks for various reasons, including temperature fluctuations, settling, and wear over time. While these cracks may seem minor, they can lead to significant problems if not addressed properly before applying a coating.
- Ensures Structural Integrity
Cracks weaken the concrete slab, making it susceptible to further damage. By repairing them, we reinforce the foundation and prevent future deterioration. - Promotes Better Adhesion
Floor coatings, especially polyaspartic, need a solid, even surface for proper adhesion. Cracks disrupt the coating’s ability to bond, leading to potential peeling or bubbling. - Improves Aesthetic Appeal
A seamless, professional finish is only achievable on a smooth surface. Crack repairs eliminate visible flaws, enhancing the overall appearance of your floor.
Our Crack Repair Process
We use a systematic approach to ensure every crack is thoroughly addressed before applying the coating:
- Inspection
Our team starts by inspecting the entire surface to identify all visible and hidden cracks. This step ensures that no imperfection goes unnoticed. - Cleaning and Debris Removal
Cracks are cleaned to remove dust, dirt, and loose debris, ensuring that the repair material adheres properly. - Filling and Sealing
We use high-quality fillers and sealants designed specifically for concrete. These materials are flexible and durable, allowing them to expand and contract with the floor. - Sanding and Smoothing
Once the filler has cured, we sand the surface to create a smooth, even finish, ready for the application of the polyaspartic coating.
