Concrete Restoration Tips


I am currently creating the infrastructure to offer concrete restoration to my product offering. I am working with Adhesives Technology products and representatives to learn about the products and processes.

They offer a variety of epoxies, poly ureas, and cementitious products for restoring and anchoring applications.

If anyone has any tips or advice for me, please fire away!

Re: Concrete Restoration Tips


Why concrete tech.? Are you focusing on industrial? I've been quite happy with Elite Crete Systems. Of course they focus on commercial and residential markets. I've been installing their products for nearly 8 years now haven't come across anything else that compares. gene ec-Indy

Re: Concrete Restoration Tips


Here is the only tip you need to know:

The job will pass or fail on your surface prep. Never skimp, never say, "good enough", and ALWAYS allow enough money in the bid to achieve perfect surface prep.
