Custom Concrete Coatings in a New Construction Bates City Home
A Professional Floor Coating Installation Project
Gateway Custom Coatings recently completed an impressive project in Bates City, MO, demonstrating our commitment to delivering top-tier quality and efficiency. This two-day project was notable for its scale and our high-performance techniques and custom products, catering to a newly constructed home. Gateway Custom Coatings serves Kansas City, Missouri and the surrounding areas with durable and beautiful concrete coatings.
1. Initial Assessment and Preparation
The project’s size and new construction status required careful planning and execution. Our team began with a thorough site assessment and measurements of all of the new concrete slabs. Cleaning and grinding the concrete ensured that the foundation was prepared for optimal coating adhesion. This preparation included cleaning the surface, filling any imperfections, and providing a smooth, even foundation for the epoxy application. The three rooms to be coated included a large garage, a bathroom, and a utility room. Each area had its own set of requirements, which our team adapted to provide. 2. Application of 100% Solids Hybrid-Epoxy
The first layer involved the application of a 100% solids hybrid epoxy. This material is known for its durability, chemical resistance, and robust finish, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and new constructions where longevity is crucial. The hybrid epoxy was meticulously applied, ensuring complete coverage and a strong bond to the substrate. The Gateway Coatings team worked diligently to ensure the application was smooth and uniform across all three rooms.
3. Custom Flake Flooring Selection
Black, white, gray, and red flakes were incorporated into the epoxy coating to enhance the aesthetic appeal and provide a unique finish. This color scheme was chosen to match the new home’s modern design and offer a striking visual effect. The flakes add to the overall look and help hide dirt and imperfections, making the floor easier to maintain.
4. Polyaspartic Topcoat
Once the epoxy layer was cured, we applied a polyaspartic topcoat. Polyaspartic coatings are renowned for their UV resistance, fast curing times, and superior abrasion resistance. This topcoat not only enhances the beauty and sheen with a glossy finish but also provides an additional layer of protection, ensuring the surface remains pristine for years to come. The polyaspartic topcoat was applied evenly across the three rooms, sealing in the flakes and providing a smooth, durable surface.
5. Final Inspection and Quality Assurance
After applying both coatings, our team conducted a thorough inspection to ensure the quality and consistency of the finish. Any necessary touch-ups were made to guarantee a flawless result. Thanks to the efficiency and expertise of our skilled team, the quick turnaround time of two days was achieved without compromising on quality. Each room was carefully inspected, ensuring that the color distribution and finish met our high standards.
Benefits of Gateway Custom Coating System
Durability
The hybrid-epoxy and polyaspartic combination provides a robust, long-lasting finish that can withstand heavy use and environmental stressors. This is particularly important for the garage and utility room, which are likely to see high traffic and potential exposure to chemicals and moisture.
Aesthetic Appeal
The glossy finish of the polyaspartic topcoat, combined with the black, white, gray, and red flakes, enhances the overall look of the space, adding a sleek and professional appearance. The color scheme complements the modern design of the new home and adds a customized touch.
Fast Curing
The polyaspartic topcoat’s fast curing time allowed for quick project completion, minimizing disruption and allowing the homeowners to enjoy their new space sooner. This was especially beneficial in the new construction setting, where time is often of the essence.
UV and Chemical Resistance
The coatings offer excellent resistance to UV rays and chemicals, ensuring the surface remains intact and attractive over time. This is crucial for maintaining the pristine look of the floors in the basement and garage.
