Specializing in Epoxy Floor Coatings and Polished Concrete. Professional installs with the best solutions to put down what sticks around! Serving the industrial, commercial and residential customers for over 4 years.

"These guys did a fantastic job on my garage floor. I've done epoxy myself, on my garage floor in a previous house, and this was hands down a better option. The machines they used to do the prep work were amazing. It ground off everything and got the concrete prepped nicely. The product they used was also heavy duty and high end. At their recommendation we did a full flake covering and it was a great choice. It's been about six months and it's holding up beautifully. The finish is still perfect and I have no doubt it will hold up for years to come. These guys were honest, friendly, punctual, had a great price, and overall did a fantastic job. I couldn't be happier! I would highly recommend them for your floor covering needs."

Buffing and Polishing questions, answered by experts

Standing water can lead to surface discoloration if your granite countertops are improperly sealed. However, it’s possible to remove hard water stains with a baking soda paste. Take more care with acidic liquids, such as fruit juice or red wine, which can leave more permanent stains. That’s why it’s so important to reseal these surfaces regularly.

The answer to this question depends on how large the room is and how much experience you have stripping and waxing floors. It will take at least 24 hours to strip the floors, then you must allow time for drying, waxing, waiting for them to cure, and, finally, buffing them. Since you likely will not be working for the full 24 hours, it is safe to say that this is a two- or three-day job.

Maintenance includes regular cleaning with appropriate products, periodic sealing to protect against staining and wear, and addressing minor issues before they escalate.

Due to soapstone's non-porous nature and antimicrobial properties, you don’t need to seal it like other stone materials like marble or granite. However, even though sealing isn't required, it can enhance soapstone's natural stain resistance. Another protective option is to apply mineral oil once per month.

Buffing is a less expensive and less time-consuming alternative to other floor repair techniques, but it’s only ideal for removing surface-level scratches and damages. Floor-buffing machines work to gently smooth out the floor’s top layer rather than removing it the way that sanding does. 

This process is ideal for gently worn floors, but it won’t have the desired impact on floors with severe damage. On the other hand, sanding fully strips the floor’s top layer so damages beneath the surface are accessible to remove or repair. Since the process is more involved, it requires more time, tools, and experience to achieve the best possible results.
