Nothing built on a poor foundation lasts; applying epoxy paint to a substandard concrete floor is a recipe for failure. Policrete’s meticulous surface preparation for epoxy flooring guarantees that your existing floor is up to standard before the epoxy resin is evenly mixed.
Depending on the nature of your existing floor, Policrete’s epoxy flooring preparation service may be a critical step before epoxy can be laid.

An epoxy floor coating needs a properly prepared surface to adhere to. As durable as a thick coating of epoxy resin may be, it can be compromised by water or grime trapped beneath it or by soft, cracked and compromised concrete.

If you have relatively stable and high-quality concrete flooring laid down, we may only need to grind areas before applying the epoxy coating. However, if your floors have significant damage and concrete spalling, then we may have to undertake larger scale repair works.
As a full-service concrete specialist, we can perform any service needed to prepare your floors for the epoxy layer. Better still, we can work outside your business hours to mitigate any disruption to your operations.
Improperly prepared concrete floors will drastically reduce the integrity of your epoxy floors. That degradation will inevitably spread throughout your home or business over time unless you invest in costly repairs.
Partner with Policrete right from the start, and you can trust us to get the job done correctly. Not only will our work guarantee the integrity of your floors — and your entire site — it’ll also save you on budget-crushing floor repair costs over the years.
Cured concrete is porous, so any moisture that seeps into it can get trapped within its pores. Once that happens, any number of problems can arise. Temperature fluctuations can cause the moisture to expand and crack or shatter the concrete. If the moisture reaches the iron rebar supports within the concrete, it can cause them to rust. These issues lead to concrete spalling and, if left unattended, to concrete cancer.
If moisture is trapped in concrete that has been sealed with epoxy, the degrading concrete will eventually crumble beneath the epoxy coating, making the entire floor unsafe.
Our epoxy floor preparation service includes a concrete moisture analysis. If we need to, we can dry your concrete to ensure that it remains totally stable once the epoxy is laid.
Concrete spalling is a broad term for several types of concrete degradation. Concrete spalling can refer to cracking, crumbling, water leaks and rust damage. Concrete cancer is the spread of this damage across a significant section of concrete, for example, the spread of a crack at the corner of a concrete floor across the entire room.
Grinding is one of the best ways to prepare concrete for an epoxy coating. We use diamond-embedded grinders to remove the pitted, scratched and uneven top layer of the concrete substrate, leaving the floor smooth and level. Grinding also primes the concrete so the epoxy resin can easily bond.
