If you have had concrete cracks repaired, you are aware that the repair remains visible. Concrete polishing and concrete staining will still allow the crack repair to be seen unless one installs an overlayment first.
There are two ways to dress up your concrete floor and restore a clean, uniform, beautifully accented appearance.
COATINGS: The first is to consider a concrete coating such as MARBLELIFE-ENDURACRETE ENDURACHIP or Marblized coating. Both offer the ability to introduce color and convert your concrete floor into a showroom. These are popular choices for our clients who own classic cars or sports cars as well as those seeking a large open space for social gatherings.
OVERLAYMENT: If you want a polished concrete or stained-and-polished appearance, without seeing the cracks, or the history of prior spills, or cross hatch, you will need to install a thin overlayment, a micro-topping if you will.
This virgin material hides the prior concrete surface history and provides a clean stainable uniform and polishable surface. As such, there is always a way. If you are set on that stained-and-polished look or have had someone attempt this and how it accentuates the negative history on the floor we have a way to get you where you want to be.
The garage is the largest area other than the basement in many homes. Dressing up the garage can create an alternate entertainment area for the big game, a buffet, or the kids. Marry a closet makeover and this becomes a beautiful space.
