Concrete is a terrific option for many flooring systems throughout a property. While it is one of the most durable flooring options available, it isn't bulletproof. Because concrete floors are used in areas like garages or utility rooms where they're susceptible to large impacts from vehicles and heavy equipment, concrete floors should be protected by specialized coatings to prevent cracking or chipping.
Rasmusen Painting and Concrete Coatings is a trusted concrete coating expert in Napa Valley and has been providing long-lasting and beautiful flooring systems since we opened our doors back in 1987. When homeowners ask us about the benefits to a residential concrete floor coating, we inform them of all the ways a concrete coating can enhance any floor throughout their properties.
Durability and Longevity
A concrete coating will offer superior protection for your floor than other options, such as sealing or staining. Materials like polyurea or epoxy add an additional layer to your floor that is highly-resistant to abrasions and impacts, and can't easily stain from oil or similar spills, creating a durable concrete finish.
For your Napa Valley outdoor living space, a concrete coating can greatly increase its longevity. Areas like patios or pool decks can have weather-resistant coatings applied that will be moisture-resistant on rainy days, and prevent sun fading or damage from UV rays on the hot, sunny days.
Areas like your garage that receive high traffic and impacts throughout the day also significantly benefit from the addition of a concrete coating. Rasmusen Painting uses brands known for concocting coatings that are optimal for garage floor protection that can resist:
- Staining
- Impacts
- Scratches
- Moisture
Aesthetics & Resale Value
While durability and longevity are two of the main goals with concrete coatings, most homeowners also want to ensure their new floors are aesthetically-pleasing as well. Whether you're interested in residential concrete floor coatings for your laundry room, garage, or outdoor living space, choose from several decorative concrete options like:
- Quartz Systems
- Chip Systems
- Metallic Systems
Many concrete coating options are designed to elevate the appearance of any room or space and come in a variety of colors, textures and finishes, so you can get concrete coatings for any room throughout your property. Plus, between the limited warranty protections that typically come with this service, the durability added, and the enhanced aesthetics, many homeowners may see an increase in the overall resale value of their home by investing in a residential floor coating.
Enhanced Safety
Many flooring systems throughout our home, such as our garage floors, bathroom floors, and pool decks, can be dangerous to walk on top of when there's been heavy rains or a high volume of traffic. Concrete coatings can usually be customized to come with a slip-resistant finish, which will add a safety and accessibility element to any room.
The national standard for non-slip floors is .42, which means that 42% of a person's weight must be converted into grip for the floor to pass as slip-resistant. Many concrete coatings not only meet but surpass this standard, falling into the range of .49 to .59, which means that homeowners will be able to look forward to a much safer room when a concrete coating is added.
Rasmusen Painting maintains strong industry affiliations, such as an A+ rating and accreditation with the BBB, membership with the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America and the Department of Industrial Relations, just to name a few. We source all our Napa Valley concrete coatings from trusted name brands known to deliver on durability, aesthetics, and safety, and come with 15-year product warranties for our customers' peace of mind.
