Our Epoxy Flooring Process

At Renovate Right Now, we follow a meticulous step-by-step process to ensure the highest quality epoxy flooring installation for commercial spaces. Our team of experts adheres to industry standards to deliver exceptional results with a focus on longevity and performance.

Step 1: Site Evaluation and Consultation

Before starting any project, we conduct an on-site assessment to evaluate the existing flooring condition, measure the area, and discuss specific requirements with our clients. This helps us recommend the best epoxy system for the space based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.

Step 2: Surface Preparation

Proper surface preparation is crucial for a long-lasting epoxy application. Our preparation process includes:

• Cleaning the Surface: Removing dirt, grease, oil, and other contaminants.

• Grinding or Shot Blasting: Mechanically grinding or shot blasting the surface to ensure a strong bond between the epoxy and the concrete.

• Repairing Cracks and Imperfections: Filling any cracks, holes, or uneven areas to create a smooth base for application.

• Moisture Testing: Ensuring the substrate is dry and free from excessive moisture to prevent adhesion issues.

Step 3: Priming the Surface

A high-quality epoxy primer is applied to enhance adhesion and durability. Priming also helps in sealing the concrete surface, preventing air bubbles from forming during the epoxy application.

Step 4: Epoxy Application

Once the primer has cured, the first coat of epoxy is applied using rollers or squeegees. Depending on the desired finish, additional coats may be added for enhanced thickness and durability. The epoxy is carefully spread to ensure a smooth, even surface.

Step 5: Adding Textures and Decorative Elements (If Required)

For businesses looking for a customized appearance, we offer a range of decorative options:

• Color Pigments and Metallic Effects: To create unique, visually appealing finishes.

• Flake or Quartz Additives: Providing a textured, slip-resistant surface.

• Logos and Markings: Custom branding or safety demarcations for industrial spaces.

Step 6: Topcoat Application

A protective topcoat is applied to seal the epoxy, providing extra resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and UV exposure. This final layer ensures long-term durability and enhances the floor's gloss or matte finish based on client preferences.

Step 7: Curing and Final Inspection

The epoxy floor is left to cure for the recommended period, which can range from 24 to 72 hours depending on the system used. Once cured, we conduct a final quality inspection to ensure flawless results and client satisfaction.

Epoxy Flooring Maintenance Tips

To maximize the lifespan and performance of your epoxy flooring, follow these simple maintenance tips:

• Regular Cleaning: Sweep and mop the floor frequently to prevent dust and debris buildup.

• Use Gentle Cleaning Agents: Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the epoxy coating.

• Promptly Clean Spills: Prevent staining and maintain a hygienic surface.

• Avoid Heavy Impact: While epoxy is highly durable, dropping heavy objects can cause chipping.

• Reapply a Topcoat When Needed: Periodic reapplication of a protective topcoat can extend the floor’s lifespan.
