How long does installation take?
Most patio and lanai projects are completed in 1β2 days, depending on the size and condition of the concrete.
π Youβre typically back to light use within 24β48 hours.
Can you install over existing concrete?
Yes β in most cases.
We evaluate the surface, repair any issues, and properly prepare it so the coating bonds correctly.
π Prep is what determines long-term performance.
Will it be slippery when wet?
No β outdoor systems are built with traction in mind.
We adjust the texture based on how the space is used so it feels safe and comfortable.
How does it hold up to sun and weather?
Itβs designed for it.
Outdoor systems are built to handle UV exposure, rain, heat, and temperature changes without fading, breaking down, or losing performance.
π Using the right system is everything.
What kind of maintenance does it need?
Very little.
Just rinse it off, occasionally clean it, and youβre good to go.
π No sealing, no constant upkeep.
Why choose a coating instead of tile or bare concrete?
Because it performs better.
Tile and bare concrete can crack, stain, and require ongoing maintenance.
Coating systems are seamless, easier to clean, and built to handle outdoor conditions long-term.
π Itβs not just a visual upgrade β itβs a performance upgrade.
Can I customize how it looks?
Absolutely.
From flake blends to solid colors to custom finishes, you can match the look to your home and outdoor space.
How long will it last?
That depends on preparation, system design, and exposure to the elements.
π When installed correctly, these systems are built for long-term outdoor performance.
Is epoxy good for patios and lanais?
Yes β but not on its own.
Epoxy provides strength and adhesion, while polyaspartic adds UV protection and durability.
π The combination is what makes it work outdoors.
What does proper resurfacing involve?
It starts with mechanical grinding, followed by repairs and a multi-layer coating system.
π No shortcuts β this is what ensures the coating actually lasts.
Will it get hot in the sun?
All outdoor surfaces absorb heat, but lighter colors and reflective finishes can help reduce it.
π The right color choice makes a noticeable difference.
How clean does the area need to be before installation?
It should be completely cleared β no furniture, debris, or obstacles.
π We handle the prep, but we need full access to do it right.
