Pittsburgh Concrete Floor Coatings: The Right Way to Fix Cracks

Most people think you just paint over concrete and call it a day. But if you don't fix the "bones" of the floor, those cracks will show through your new floor in a matter of weeks. Here’s how we handled this Pittsburgh garage to make sure the finish lasts:


  1. Opening the Cracks: We don't just pour filler on top. We use a diamond blade to "chase" the cracks, cutting them open so we can actually get the repair material deep inside the slab.

  2. The Sand & Polyurethane Reinforcement: We fill those open channels with a specialized industrial sand and a high-strength polyurethane. This creates a bond that is actually stronger than the original concrete.

  3. The Grind: Once the filler is set, we grind the entire floor smooth using our heavy-duty planetary grinders. This levels out the repairs so that when the final coating goes down, you can’t even tell where the cracks used to be.
