Below-grade slabs push moisture up through the concrete. Prep matters more here than anywhere else.
Moisture testing comes first. A vapor-barrier primer under the coating is what keeps it from lifting a year later.
Diamond-ground prep on every job. No acid etching. That single step is the difference between a finish that lasts and one that peels.
Resin floor systems that bond into the slab and cure hard. A polyaspartic topcoat adds UV stability and gets you back on the floor in a day.
Explore Epoxy and Polyaspartic Coatings →Acid and water-based stains that soak into the slab and react with it. The color lives inside the concrete instead of sitting on top, so it cannot peel or chip off.
Explore Concrete Staining →A cementitious layer troweled over existing concrete. Fixes spalling, discoloration and surface damage without tearing the slab out.
Explore Concrete Overlay →Only if it is ignored. We moisture test before quoting and use a vapor-barrier primer where readings call for it. Vapor pushing up through a slab lifts coatings from underneath regardless of product quality.
Yes. Flake and metallic systems are common in finished basements, and the sealed surface is far easier to keep clean than bare concrete.
Substantially. Uncoated concrete sheds dust continuously; a sealed floor stops it.
