Complete Concrete Floor Resurfacing
Transform damaged, worn, or outdated concrete floors with professional resurfacing systems.
What is concrete resurfacing?
Quick Answer: Concrete resurfacing applies polymer-modified overlay systems to damaged or worn concrete floors, restoring appearance and performance without full replacement. Professional resurfacing repairs cracks, levels uneven surfaces, and provides decorative finishes. This cost-effective solution extends floor life 15-25 years while reducing downtime and expense compared to removal and replacement.
Concrete Resurfacing Questions
Q1:
When is concrete resurfacing needed instead of replacement?
Concrete resurfacing is ideal when the existing slab is structurally sound but has surface defects like spalling, scaling, minor cracking, or wear. It's cost-effective for floors with up to 25% surface damage, uneven surfaces, or those requiring upgraded performance characteristics without full replacement.
Q2:
What types of resurfacing systems do you use?
We use various resurfacing systems including polymer-modified concrete overlays, self-leveling compounds, micro-toppings, stamped overlays, and specialized repair mortars. System selection depends on existing conditions, performance requirements, decorative needs, and traffic expectations.
Q3:
How thick are concrete resurfacing applications?
Resurfacing thickness ranges from 1/16 inch for micro-toppings to 2 inches for structural overlays. Typical applications include 1/8-1/4 inch for decorative overlays, 1/4-1/2 inch for standard resurfacing, and 1/2-2 inches for heavy-duty repair applications.
Q4:
Can resurfaced concrete match existing concrete appearance?
Yes, resurfacing systems offer extensive aesthetic options including color matching, texture replication, decorative patterns, and various finishes. We can match existing concrete or create entirely new appearances using integral colors, stains, stamps, and specialized finishing techniques.
Q5:
How long do resurfaced concrete floors last?
Properly installed resurfacing systems typically last 15-25 years depending on traffic, maintenance, and environmental conditions. High-performance polymer systems can exceed 20 years in demanding applications when properly maintained and protected with appropriate coating systems.
Q6:
What's the installation timeline for concrete resurfacing?
Installation typically takes 3-7 days including surface preparation (1-2 days), primer application (1 day), resurfacing material application (1-2 days), and curing time (2-3 days). Timeline varies based on square footage, system type, and environmental conditions.
