"Concrete Smart did a fantastic job on the back patio area. They were quick to get an estimate, get us scheduled, and get the job completed. They gave us a competitive rate, quick with any communication, and very professional. So glad we went with them for the job!!! Thank you again!"
"Great job, my garage floor looks great. I had a few quotes by other's but decided to use Floor Prep, Jason (owner) seemed very knowledgeable and confident in his work. After doing my research he was correct, you get what you pay for and I only wanted my garage to be done once."
"I absolutely loved how efficient sonart was with their work! Truly do diligent, We hired them for a simple job just a new bathroom installation as well as flooring for the bathroom! Really pleasant experience from beginning to end!"
"Rudy & his team did a MARVELOUS job in "recreating" the look of my backyard (I don't recognize it lol). They replaced my old fencing and removed an old and poorly built pergola and removed and replaced decking floor with concrete. I would recommend (and have) R&D Concrete!"
"Job was completed very well. All the rain didn’t help, but the Tip Top team worked through the adversity and overall did a great job. I am especially happy with the extra wide reinforced gate! Sweet job!"
You’ll usually need to prime a garage floor before painting—especially if the floor is unpainted. Garage floors are made from concrete, which is porous and produces dust. The dust can contaminate the paint and cause issues with adherence.
Primer creates a barrier and gives you a clean surface to work on. It also minimizes absorption to help give you an even, pro-looking paint job. Make sure you choose a primer that’s specifically designed to cover concrete flooring.
The prevention steps are essentially the same, no matter the patio material. Keep the surface clean and maintained. Ensure there's no debris buildup, and cover the whole thing in a quality sealant. If it's the start of a season or it's been a while since you've cleaned the area, use a pressure washer.
Whether it's better to stain or paint concrete depends on your budget, desired aesthetic, and DIY skill level. Generally, staining is a more durable option because the stain soaks into the concrete's surface and won't wear away like a topical paint coating. Painting concrete can trap moisture underneath the paint layer, which may cause the concrete to deteriorate over time. However, concrete paint offers a wider variety of colors, is typically easier and less expensive to apply, and is effective at covering up existing stains or blemishes on the surface.
Yes, polished concrete floors are worth it for homeowners who want durability, style, and low maintenance in one sleek flooring surface. You get the modern visual appeal of stone or tile with far less upkeep and far less cost. Polished concrete flooring is tough enough for high-traffic areas, it’s a great choice for people with allergies, and it’s easy to clean. If your existing concrete is in good shape, polishing it can give you solid value that shines on for years.
When you’re painting a garage floor, it’s best to use a combination of rollers and brushes. You’ll want to start with a brush, making a border around the edges where the floor meets the wall. From there you can use a roller, though some people also like to do the entire first coat with a brush because it’s easier to work the paint into the textured concrete.
