A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Let’s make
it clear.
Is every concrete floor ready for a coating?
No. Moisture, contamination, existing coatings, cracks, and substrate condition need evaluation. Preparation and product selection are part of the scope.
Can an indoor epoxy finish be used outside?
Not automatically. UV exposure, weather, slip resistance, and the manufacturer’s approved application determine the appropriate system.
Is tile price only about square footage?
No. Removal, substrate preparation, tile size, pattern, stairs, edges, transitions, and waterproofing where relevant can materially change the scope.
