Our 1-Day floor coatings are pretty awesome. These floors have become wildly popular, and for several very good reasons. If you head over to our Facebook page, you can see some of or most recent garage transformations.

We realize that there is a lot of information floating around the internet regarding concrete floor coatings. However, not everything you read on the internet is true. To help you start your research, we’ve compiled a list of things you might not know about our floor coatings.

1-Day floor coatings won’t break the bank

High quality floor coatings do look expensive. Often, these floor coatings are shown in fancy garages with luxury cars. This doesn’t mean that they are exclusive to high end homes though!

We are Penntek certified, and this helps us offer competitive pricing for our floor coating system. Our 1-Day floor coating system is designed for regular people, with regular homes.

We have a very rigorous preparation process to ensure that your floors will withstand the test of time. Plus our floors come with a 15 year warranty! This adds even more value to your project.

Not all concrete floor coatings are comparable

When you’re walking through your local hardware store, you may see options for DIY concrete floor coatings. Although these may seem like an alluring option, but once applied, the quality may be lacking.

If you are trying to compare DIY coatings, to our 1-Day floor coating systems, ask yourself if the kit offers these benefits –

  • 4x Stronger Than Epoxy
  • Cleaning Is a Snap
  • Slip Resistant Surface
  • Will Not Chip
  • 1-Day Installation
  • 15-Year Warranty
  • Diverse colors and finishes are available

Plus, each of our systems are applied by a highly trained team! This means that the end result will look professional, and will hold up under constant use.

1-Day floor coatings aren’t just paint

We can see why it would be easy to think that this coating is paint, however; this couldn’t be further from the truth.

This floor coating is made from polyurea and the colored flakes are high quality vinyl. Did you know that polyurea is waterproof, abrasion resistant, UV resistant and extremely durable?  This awesome system will protect your floors from wear and tear, and weather damage.

To learn more about this system, you can head over to one of our recent blog posts that we wrote on the topic.

Our prep steps are just as important as the coating

Did you know that there is a LOT that goes into the prep work before we can start applying your floor coating?  We start by sealing all of the cracks and dips in the flooring, and then sand everything down into a smooth even surface.

Without this step, the floors will be uneven, and since the floor coatings are waterproof, water could otherwise start to pool. Plus, the polyurea layer will not bond to the concrete if it is not properly sanded and prepped!

Our 1-Day floor coatings last for a lifetime

While some coatings, such as epoxy floor coatings and DIY kits need to be replaced every 3-5 years, this doesn’t apply to Penntek floor coatings! Our floor coatings come with a 15 year guarantee.

Because they are waterproof, UV and stain resistant, our floor coatings do not fade, peel or crack. They hold up inside and outside.

There is no need to replace these floors to keep them looking their best. They were designed to withstand the wear and tear of heavy use, and this is one of the reasons people love to use them on their garages, driveways and basements!
