RESIDENTIAL EPOXY FLOORING

URETHANE CONCRETE

Urethane concrete, or urethane cement, is the strongest, most durable form of epoxy available in our service range. The urethane binds cement powder into an incredibly long-lasting mixture that combines the epoxy's flexibility with the concrete's ruggedness. Due to its high strength, urethane concrete does not require a thick coat, allowing us to shape it for use on beveled floors and coves.

A thick layer of urethane concrete is an excellent way to improve the floor's thermal resistance and prevent expansion and contraction caused by temperature differences. It can increase the floor's lifespan and is suitable for an array of uses. We can also add textures and colors to urethane concrete to match the house's overall appearance and aesthetic. With urethane concrete, clients get an exceedingly durable product that is easy to clean and prevents deterioration.

METALLIC EPOXY FLOORING

CONCRETE OVERLAYS

While concrete is made to be durable, years of use put its strength to the test. If left alone, concrete floors develop cracks and holes from water infiltration and thermal expansion and contraction, which results in an uneven, dangerous surface. Therefore, before installing new flooring, the concrete needs to be fixed and evened out to provide a stable base that can last and endure the pressure.

Overlaying concrete requires specialist tools and premium materials to ensure the new layer bonds with the original surface. After overlaying, the floor is sanded until it is level. Overlays can be treated to allow for better epoxy or other flooring applications and make the floors easier to stain or maintain. We have a crew with the knowledge and expertise to apply the proper overlay in record time and clean up afterward for a seamless finish. We can also combine overlaying with brand-new epoxy flooring installation for a comprehensive service.

CONCRETE POLISHING

If homeowners prefer to keep their concrete floors but want to make them pop, concrete polishing is an excellent way to achieve that. After a thorough concrete overlay to fill in any cracks and even out the floor surface, polishing the concrete can give it a marble-like appearance and a mirror-like shine.

Polishing the floors is done in four stages. First, we grind the surface to ensure it's even. This step allows the sealers to bond to the concrete rather than any debris. Next, we overlay the floor with sealant to fill in cracks and make a polished surface. The floor can then be stained in various colors and textures to give it a unique appearance. Lastly, we apply a protective seal to ensure the floor can withstand traffic and maintain its luster for longer. Our crew is devoted to the job and provides outstanding results.

MOISTURE REMEDIATION

Even though concrete is durable, it is still porous and can absorb a small amount of water. This characteristic is especially troublesome when underground water inevitably rises to the surface and evaporates, leaving the minerals it carried on the floor. These salts can appear as white or yellowish marks on the surface in a process called efflorescence. Since water always finds the path of least resistance, efflorescence marks tend to gather in a few particular places on the floor and never go away, even with a strict cleaning regime. Wooden boards on top of the concrete can rot and deteriorate from the moisture, which results in costly repairs.

Applying epoxy resin to the concrete makes it waterproof. The protective epoxy layer also makes the flooring last longer and easier to maintain. Moisture remediation is a relatively fast process that can be completed before or during construction or remodeling for the best benefits.

ANTI-SLIP FINISH

One of the most significant advantages of epoxy is that it provides a stable, slip-resistant surface. While this has primarily industrial applications, homeowners can also benefit from an anti-slip layer in rooms that typically see a lot of moisture. Epoxy is great for kitchens, laundry rooms, and garages, providing a safer area to work in and reducing the risk of accidents.

Our top priority when applying epoxy flooring is to ensure client satisfaction. Homeowners can choose between many designs and textures available for anti-slip epoxy finishes to customize their appearance and make it match their surroundings.

COVED FLOORING SYSTEMS

Coving is the process of extending the flooring surface beyond the floor and onto the walls. A coved floor is a continuous surface that adds more protection and peace of mind. The cove acts like the lip of a plate that keeps liquid from splashing out of bounds. When performed correctly, coving is an excellent way to protect garages and work areas from unnecessary moisture damage and reduce plaster and wall deterioration.

If you're looking into new epoxy flooring for the garage, consider installing a coved system to make it easier to clean and keep moisture at bay. Clover Valley Home Service has the tools needed to streamline the installation process and provide excellent results.

COLOR FLAKES

Color flakes are small material chips that add a distinct, vibrant color to the epoxy and can create varied, often random, patterns in the floor that increase its depth and beauty. While solid-colored epoxy floors are acceptable for all applications, adding flakes to the mix doesn't detract from any benefits and gives it a more customized and intriguing appearance.

Epoxy colors and color flakes don't have to match. With an extensive selection of flake sizes and designs, the possibilities are almost endless. It's up to the homeowner to select a palette and design they prefer. The professionals with Clover Valley Home Service ensure proper installation and provide a seamless, smooth finish.

EPOXY COLOR MICAS

Micas are a common rock material found all over the world. Depending on their source location, micas can have varying colors and luster. They add a sparkle to epoxy like they do in natural rock formations and provide a granite or marble-like texture to an otherwise solid color. Applying epoxy micas results in a natural-looking floor that is more appealing to the eye.

Micas don't interfere with epoxy's durability since they're chemically stable and durable. Homeowners can choose from an array of excellent options to customize their floor's appearance. Our job is to ensure an impeccable installation. Don't hesitate to make a bold statement with a sparkling floor that shines in the light.

EPOXY COLOR GRANULES

Granules are a great way to add texture, color, and durability to epoxy flooring. Adding granules into the resin mixture results in a layer that has more traction and acts as a natural anti-slip finish. They change the epoxy's appearance slightly but add more safety.

Granules come in many colors that can be mixed for a fully customized floor appearance that provides more stability and durability than regular epoxy. While granules add texture and increase traction, they still allow the floor to be cleaned and maintained quickly. Our professional crew can consult on possible color combinations and perform an excellent installation.
