Floors and aisleways in grocery stores are commonly covered with a variety of forms of ceramic tiles. Besides taking a long time to lay down, ceramic tiles are also demanding when it comes to maintenance and cleaning. To simplify maintenance and cleaning, many commercial spaces use polished concrete instead. Polished concrete takes the soothing patterns in the floor and improves them with color stains. Afterwards, a clear, durable epoxy coating protects the floor, making it quick to maintain. Nevada Custom Coatings in Incline Village offers high-quality concrete polishing that exceeds expectations.
The Concrete Polishing Application
Nevada Custom Coatings uses these steps when polishing concrete:
Grind it! – Imperfections and blemishes are removed by sanding the surface of the concrete. HEPA-filtered vacuums eliminate the dust produced during the grind, defending the air in your retail space. The end result is an exciting concrete floor with an impressive level of shine, even before laying a clear coat.
Level it! – Areas with cracks are repaired. Any holes or indentations that cannot be fixed with grinding are leveled to the same level as the rest of the concrete. This way the polish is 100 percent solid and flat. An extra grind ensures that these repaired areas match the rest of the floor.
Stain it! – Your concrete surface is infused, not just covered, with a color stain of your choice. The color stain, in truth, disperses through and beneath the concrete surface. Any essential patterns are also requested at this stage. Stains can be thick, hiding the concrete grain, or light, allowing patterns in the concrete to shine through like polished wood. Nevada Custom Coatings favors the use of water-based stains that are safer for the environment.
Protect it! – Floor sealants protect the color and provide a top-of-the-line gloss. These astoundingly strong top coats are very durable and stand up to harm from ordinary retail store traffic. The result is a floor that is very low maintenance. Thicker coats of protective sealers can compensate in areas where excessive traffic or heavy loads are expected.
All of this work is completed efficiently and promptly by the experienced crews at Nevada Custom Coatings. If you are constructing or revitalizing and rejuvenating a facility for use as a supermarket, we want to be your flooring partner!
