Finding the right concrete flooring contractors can be difficult. Commercial concrete floor epoxy can be difficult to come by, and finding the right company to install it can be even harder. However, with Custom Concrete Solutions, you’ll be content with knowing we provide some of the best concrete epoxy work in the area. In today’s article, we’ll be going over some issues you’ll face with regular old concrete floors and how epoxy flooring can help.
If you are the owner of a business that includes a concrete floor, you are probably also aware of how difficult and costly it can be to keep your floor clean. No matter what kind of floor you have, dirt, grease, oil and other contaminants are likely to end up on it. Some of those things may be easier to remove than others.
One such example of grime that ends up being a problem for different types of floors is oil. If it is oily or thick, it can easily run into normal, non covered concrete. If not removed quickly, that oil can create a glue-like film on the surface of the concrete, which will make removal of the oil more difficult. Removing this oil can be a time consuming process for your business.
Another problem that can occur when you have concrete floors is called scaling. Scaling is when your hardened concrete will flake and peel due to freezing temperatures. This is also caused by the weight of heavy machinery or other items that may be on your floor.
The worst case scenario for this problem is that it can crack your floor. However, with the right commercial concrete floor epoxy coatings, this problem can be prevented. When dealing with heavy objects, such as cars or machines, having epoxy flooring can be extremely beneficial.
Each type of coating has its own particular benefits. The one you choose should be able to address the issue you have. It is a good idea to consult with an expert in the field to get advice about the best type of epoxy to use on your concrete.
Many commercial businesses choose to use commercial concrete floor epoxy coatings because of their wide range of benefits. One of the most noticeable benefits is that they provide concrete floor protection from a variety of chemicals and contaminants. Coatings can also help to make the concrete more durable and prevent the concrete from any damage. Epoxy is especially beneficial in areas where there is considerable soil moisture.
After you install your epoxy surface, keep in mind that it will only require minimal maintenance. You’ll only have to sweep and mop the area sometimes, as this will keep the surface free of dirt and dust. It may also be necessary to apply a thin coat of sealant after some time, but wear and tear is unlikely.
