As
a concrete overlay contractor, we have aligned ourselves with
the premier manufacturer of cement overlay systems- Elite Crete
Systems. Utilizing their hybrid polymer cement technology,
we believe we have a superior line of products to offer
our clientele.
Science has given us this cementitious technology
which, when applied correctly, is far superior to those
companies using acrylic resin, latex and/or styrene based
products. These types of products tend not to hold up in
freeze-thaw climates such as the climate we are located
here in the southeast. This is one of the major reasons,
along with the fact that Elite Crete has been making and
selling their polymer cement products for over 20 years,
we exclusively use Elite Crete Systems.
Using a top of
the line product is only a part of the overall installation
equation, however. We provide high quality service which
includes: a 3,700 P.S.I. pressure washing of the surface,
followed by an acid-etching process which opens up the
pores in the concrete to allow the base coat to “wick” down
into those pores and become “one” with the
existing concrete. This is a critical step, and once the
base coat is applied and has dried it actually makes the
existing concrete stronger. Also, this gives the decorative
overlay a proper surface to bond to insuring the integrity
of the overlay.
