Before We Arrive

Your prep list.

Tick these off as you go. Your crew watches the progress bar.

0 / 9 done

Most clients spend 3 to 4 hours, a day or two ahead.

Items left in the work area are not covered. Move what you are keeping.

The Big Question

Do I have to move my stuff?

Straight answer: the floor has to be empty before we arrive.

Yes. Everything.

Why?

We grind the whole slab and coat it edge to edge. Anything on the floor is in the way.

Out it goes

  • Vehicles — off the driveway and out of the garage
  • Shelving, cabinets, workbenches, boxes, totes
  • Tools, equipment, machinery
  • Bikes, sports gear, kids' toys
  • Anything you would hate to lose

We handle

  • Baseboards and edges
  • Masking and dust control
  • Cleanup after grinding

You handle

  • Everything sitting on the floor
  • Somewhere else to put it
  • Parking for the crew

The day before, not the day of

Clear it early and we start grinding the moment we pull up.

Too much to move?

Tell your rep before install day. We will figure it out together.

The honest part

Anything left on the floor is not covered. Move what you are keeping.

Not sure what counts? Call us.

Weather & Timing

Your date is a target, not a promise.

We hold your date and fight to keep it. Here is how weather gets a vote.

Why weather matters

Our coatings cure by chemical reaction. Rain, humidity, and cold slow it down and can trap moisture under the floor, the top reason coatings fail early.

How we watch it

We check your forecast five days out, then every morning. You get a clear yes or no by 5:00 PM the day before.

If we move you

You slide to the next slot that week, free. You hear the new date the moment we know it.

Our promise

If anything changes, you hear it from us first.

What To Expect

Your install, day by day.

Most residential floors take one to two days.

Day 1

Prep and base coat

  1. 1

    We walk the space and protect baseboards and edges.

  2. 2

    Diamond grinding opens the concrete so the coating bonds.

  3. 3

    Cracks and joints get repaired, then everything is vacuumed dust-free.

  4. 4

    First coat goes down.

Day 2

Finish and walkthrough

  1. 1

    Your finish goes on, decorative layer or topcoat.

  2. 2

    Final topcoat, the wear layer.

  3. 3

    We walk it with you and hand over your care instructions.

Every floor is different. Your crew gives you the real timeline on day one.

After We Leave

When things can go back.

Your floor takes footsteps before it takes weight.

0-24 hrs

Feet only

Socks or clean soft soles. Nothing else.

24-48 hrs

Light stuff comes back

Carry it, never drag. Nothing heavy yet.

72 hrs

Vehicles can park

Park normally. No hot tires in one spot for hours.

Remember this one

Feet before freight.

Moving back, the right way

  • Lift and carry. Never drag.

  • Felt pads under anything that slides.

  • Wipe spills when they happen.

  • Skip vinegar, bleach, citrus, and abrasive pads.

The one thing that ruins a new floor

Dragging something heavy too soon.
