Do you like the look of polished concrete but not sure which way to go. You can have the same look with an alternate process. Polished concrete is a long process involving many hours including more than ten grinding and polishing stages using various grades of grit and the application of a densifier and a stain guard sealer. Chemical densifiers are applied to both polished and non-polished concrete floors to try and seal them against liquids and reduce dusting. In a nutshell a concrete densifier is a chemical hardener which acts as a pore filler. Polished concrete takes 2-3 days depending on the size of the floor or the area of concrete to be polished. Polished concrete if done properly with no quality shortcuts is not only time consuming but costly. With a Diamond coat system from iCOAT you can achieve a similar look with the added benefit of 100%…
“You did my friends garage floor and it looks fantastic in fact he is so happy with it he recommended I contact you…………..”. “Thank you for a really great job we love the finish.

• The concrete floor is inspected and checked for faults such as concrete laitance, chips, and cracks as well as hardness and moisture level. • When any repairs and or adjustments necessary are completed the surface is dry Diamond Ground. During this process, a super-strong vacuum system ensures a minimum amount of dust escapes. • Once the floor is through vacuumed of concrete dust a Polyurea primer basecoat coat is applied with the appropriate colour tint for the required finish. • This is followed by the decorative chip. • Then the top coat and non-slip additive if required. • Finally we depart with the area looking much better than when we arrived. • Plus…we leave NO MESS This is a basic look at how the process works, there are slight variations depending on which system is chosen.

Everyday on-line shopping becomes more and more the norm………. Thank the heavens there are still businesses that really exist in solid form that you can visit to see, feel and touch what it is you are wanting to purchase. It is great to be able to go to a showroom and sit in a shiny new car, flop on a couch or stretch out on a king size bed or actually see something working. Somewhere you can get face to face advice and at the same time make a personal judgement on whether or not you wish to spend your money with that company in confidence. A showroom tells a story about who you are doing business with. It states they are fully invested in their business and have probably been in business for a while and they are not likely to be going anywhere in a hurry. For a…
Concrete floor coatings add style, good looks and practicability. They make an area more functional and serviceable as well as comfortable to be in. A friend of mine a long time ago said she hated the surface on her garage floor, she said it felt rough, it ruined her good heels it looked horrible and was not easy to clean. No matter how hard she tried the dust kept coming back. Every time she complained she was told “it’s just a garage floor”. When you make the decision do what my friend did and seek the advice of a true professional someone who has been around for a long time and is an expert in his field, suddenly things improve. Go to iCOAT soon.
Every professional agrees that unless the proper preparation has been carried out it is extremely likely that whatever you set out to do could end up with disastrous results. This is very true in almost every task in life that you can think of. This is very much the case when it comes to applying a coating to a concrete floor. People these days are generally very well informed prior to making decisions and fortunately it is now relatively easy to do your research. Nobody likes to throw money away and we all want value for our hard earned cash. Doing your research is all well and good but how do you know if you are receiving the best advice and are you being given enough information to enable you to make correct informed decisions. Let me give you an example related to coating a concrete floor. There are a…
The floor coating industry is a specialist field and it takes a lot of experience to get the promised finishes. The industry is not governed by legislation and has attracted quite a few “fly by night” operators who have done a quick low cost job and been long gone when the problems arise. So here are a few tips before selecting an applicator. Beware of the operator who claims to do many types of work. We are a company who specialises in concrete floor coatings. That is all we do and we do the best job in our field. We have been here for well over a decade and we are not going anywhere. No insurances then no acceptance of the quotation. Insurance is so very important these days and unless your applicator has you covered for any possible damage to your property then there is a risk. Public…
