Our Process

From first call to finished floor — here's exactly what to expect when you work with Restore Your Floor. No surprises, no shortcuts.

How It Works

4 Steps to a Perfect Floor

Every install follows the same proven process. It's why our floors last — and why our competitors' don't.

01

Free Estimate

Call us or fill out the online form. We'll visit your property, measure the space, discuss your options, and give you a clear written quote — no pressure, no surprises.

02

Surface Prep

On install day, our crew arrives on time and mechanically profiles the concrete — diamond grinding for residential and lighter commercial jobs, shot blasting for heavy commercial and industrial floors where a deeper, more aggressive surface profile is required. Cracks and joints are repaired before any coating goes down.

03

Coating Application

We apply the base coat, broadcast your chosen color flakes, then seal with a clear polyaspartic or urethane topcoat. Multiple layers, precisely timed for maximum adhesion and durability.

04

Final Walkthrough

Once the floor is cured, we do a full walkthrough with you to make sure you're thrilled with the result. We hand you your warranty paperwork and you're done — enjoy your new floor.

The Details

What Makes Our Process Different

01

The Estimate Visit

We don't quote over the phone and hope for the best. Every estimate includes an in-person visit so we can assess your slab, identify any issues (moisture, cracks, previous coatings), and recommend the right system for your specific space and usage.

  • In-person site assessment
  • Slab moisture testing
  • Product & color recommendations
  • Written quote — no hidden fees
02

Diamond Grinding & Shot Blasting

This is where we separate ourselves. Most contractors own one grinder and use it on everything. We assess the slab first — then choose the right method. For residential garages and basements, diamond grinding opens the pores and creates the bonding profile the coating needs. For commercial warehouses, fire stations, and high-traffic industrial floors, we use shot blasting — a process that propels steel shot at the surface at high velocity, removing contaminants and creating a deeper, more aggressive profile that heavy-duty coating systems require to bond properly. Acid washing cannot achieve either. Shortcuts here cause failures later.

  • Diamond grinding for residential & light commercial
  • Shot blasting for commercial & industrial floors
  • Fill cracks & control joints
  • Moisture vapor barrier if needed
  • Full vacuum & blow-down before coating
03

The Coating System

We apply a multi-layer system — never a single-coat shortcut. The base coat penetrates and anchors to the prepped concrete. Color flakes are broadcast to full rejection for full coverage. The clear topcoat (polyaspartic or urethane) seals everything and provides the chemical and abrasion resistance.

  • 100% solids epoxy or polyaspartic base
  • Full-broadcast color flake system
  • UV-stable clear topcoat
  • Anti-slip additive available
04

Cure & Walkthrough

Polyaspartic topcoats cure fast — foot traffic in hours, vehicles next morning. We walk through every square foot with you before we leave. If anything isn't right, we fix it on the spot. You receive your written 1-year warranty on labor and materials before we go.

  • Light foot traffic same day
  • Vehicle traffic within 24 hours
  • Full quality walkthrough with homeowner
  • Written 1-year warranty on labor & materials provided
