"MDK did a fantastic job! Because building professionals from all fields are extremely busy in Montana during the summer high volume construction months, it's difficult to find specialized contractors. I was able to get three separate proposals but would have had to wait for two months for two of the professionals to get a job started. Tony at MDK really pulled a rabbit out of the hat. Between jobs in Dillon, Butte and Big Sky, Tony put in a week of long days and nights to completely prep, finish, speckle and overcoat my 600 sq ft garage. Because of his work ethic, punctuality and professionalism, I asked him to add a two foot spray guard around the inside perimeter of the garage to match the floor finish. I plan to over-finish the patios and walkways in the future to prevent cracking and expedite snow removal."
When you are laying hardwood flooring—or any other material that does not flex well with humidity—you will want to check the moisture level of your subfloor before proceeding. Flooring like luxury vinyl tile and bamboo performs better than more rigid materials in environments where moisture might be present. However, thorough testing is always an excellent preventative measure to control and monitor water in your home.
The cost to replace a driveway coating ranges from $275 to $850, or $550 on average. Naturally, larger driveways cost more than smaller driveways. The type of driveway sealant and the number of coats also impact the cost. Coal tar sealant costs the least, while latex acrylic sealant costs the most. Oil-based sealants fall in the middle.
Epoxy paint is a popular option for concrete due to its durability and stain resistance. You can also use masonry paint, which adheres well to concrete. Acrylic paints are more affordable but not as durable. Concrete stain is another option, which is more durable than paint and won’t peel over time.
The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.
Concrete is the most popular garage flooring option because it’s durable and can stand up to the weight of vehicles. If you plan on using your garage to park your car or store heavy items, concrete is a solid option. However, if you want to convert your garage to a living space, you can choose any number of flooring options to go over the concrete foundation, including wood, tile, and even carpeting.
