At TopNotch Concrete Coatings, our surface preparation process begins with grinding, filling, and sealing any cracks in your floor. Color chips in our standard 3-layer coating system do a great job of hiding imperfections, so you’ll never know they were there.

Common in concrete slabs, expansion or contraction joints won’t be a problem. TopNotch Concrete Coatings has a few options. When we meet with you for your initial consultation or moisture test, we’ll take a look and help you decide on the best solution.

No. You can just arrange for us to have access to your garage or project space. You’ll come home to a brand-new coated floor at the end of the day. Please make sure everything has been cleared off the floor before we arrive.

We need a clear, bare space. Remove everything off your garage floor before we arrive.

For general maintenance, a leaf blower is far more effective at removing dust and dirt than it was with your old concrete floor. For periodic cleaning and maintenance, warm vinegar water and a mop are all you need. Pressure washing your new floor will damage the topcoat!

Not under dry conditions. Any surface can become slippery when wet due to hydroplaning or ice accumulation. The chip layer we install in our standard 3-layer coating system adds texture to your floor to prevent hydroplaning. We include an anti-slip grit to your topcoat to help keep your feet on the ground.

Once the topcoat is fully cured, your floor is impervious to most chemicals and oils. The only exception is strong acids such as battery acid which will eventually eat through almost anything, including a chemical floor coating. If you have a battery leak, clean it up with water and vinegar right away. With any flooring surface, avoid sliding anything sharp and heavy across the floor as this can scratch the surface.

A DIY project comes with the risk of improper installation. This can cause polyurea problems in your final product and be dangerous if handling chemicals.

For concrete coating, hiring a professional ensures you get the job done right and with quality. There is a lot of prep work required for an even coating. Many professionals use a special diamond grinder that you won’t find in your typical garage storage.
