Decorative Self Leveling Concrete & Metallic Epoxy
Problem– Floor had huge step and crack down middle of the floor .Another contractor had tried to
patch and didn’t use the right product. Owner wanted something different in front of main showcase that would set it apart from the rest of the room.
Solution – We offered the owner a unique floor option which would give it a home looking feel to showcase the fireplaces. The wood look concrete was the favorite choice. We used a self leveling cement to take the step out of the slab Repaired all the cracks and ground down the high spots.
We applied a primer and put down our lines that would be the pattern of wood planks. We then applied the cementitious coat and let dry for the day.
Next morning we pulled the lines and hit all the high spots with a scraper. Once vacuumed we applied our water based stain to the floor.
The owner wanted a close match to the existing wood that was on the floor and we matched it fairly well. Once the stain was dry the next day we used black stain to put in the knots and nail holes. About 2 hrs later a coat of clear epoxy was put down.
The following day a coat of polyurethane was applied and the project was complete.
“Our goal was to provide the customer the wow factor when they show it off to their friends and clients” Said Joe Ballor of Advanced Epoxy Floors.
