Coating Removal & Recoat in Boise, ID

When a coating has failed

Failed floor coatings are common, and they're almost always a prep problem. A DIY kit that peeled under hot tires, a previous installer who skipped proper grinding, a coating that bubbled from moisture or wore through from use — whatever the cause, a failing coating looks bad, creates a tripping and dust hazard, and can't just be coated over. The old failed material has to come off first, because a new coating applied over a peeling one will fail right along with it. We remove failed coatings, properly prep the exposed concrete, and install a new system done right, so you finally get the durable floor you wanted.

Removal done properly

Removing an old coating is dusty, labor-intensive work that's best left to professionals with the right equipment. We use diamond grinders, shot-blasters, and appropriate methods to strip off failed epoxy, paint, sealers, and coatings and take the concrete back to a sound, clean, properly profiled surface — with dust collection to keep the mess down. Then we repair any cracks and damage revealed underneath and install a new coating system with the mechanical prep and quality materials that make it last. The difference between the failed floor and the new one is the prep and the system, and we get both right.

Do it once, do it right

If you've already been burned by a coating that failed — maybe a DIY kit or a cut-rate installer — the fix isn't another quick coat, it's proper removal and a correctly installed system. It costs more than the failed job did, but it's the only way to get a floor that lasts, and it's the last time you'll have to deal with it. We'll assess your failed floor, explain what went wrong, and install a coating the right way so you get the durable, good-looking floor you were after in the first place.
