What Is Concrete Resurfacing?
Concrete resurfacing involves applying a thin layer of high-quality resurfacing compound over existing concrete.
It’s a cost-effective method that restores its appearance and functionality by filling cracks, covering stains, and smoothing out other imperfections. In doing so, it creates an attractive, easy-to-maintain, and durable surface.
Resurface or Replace?
If your concrete is stable but looks worn, stained or dated, resurfacing works best. That is because small cracks and minor surface damage can often be repaired before the overlay is applied. However, replacement is considered the better option if the slab has severe cracking, deep movement, sinking sections, or major structural damage.
Of the two, resurfacing usually costs less because there is no need for extensive demolition, disposal or a new concrete pour. Both options can last 10 to 20+ years when properly installed and well maintained.
Benefits of Concrete Resurfacing
Concrete resurfacing is an effective way to restore and enhance the appearance of your existing concrete surfaces. Some of its main benefits include:
Lower Cost and Less Disruption
Resurfacing is often cheaper and quicker to complete than concrete replacement. It also avoids much of the noise, waste, and mess associated with removing an old slab.
Durable New Surface
A quality resurfacing system can protect concrete from normal wear, dirt and stains for many years under regular foot or vehicle traffic.
More Choice of Appearance
Homeowners and business customers can choose from a range of colours, textures and patterns.
Our Concrete Resurfacing Process
At Elite Epoxy & Polish SA, we follow a comprehensive, precise process to deliver exceptional results for your resurfacing project. Here’s an overview of the six key steps involved:
Surface Preparation
We start by thoroughly cleaning the existing concrete surface to remove dirt, oils, stains, and debris.
Surface Inspection and Assessment
Our team begins by conducting a detailed and thorough inspection of your surface to identify any underlying issues.
Repairs and Crack Filling
Any visible cracks, holes, or imperfections are repaired with high-quality fillers. This creates a smooth, even surface for applying the resurfacing compound. We use advanced techniques to ensure proper coverage and consistency.
Application of Resurfacer
Next, we apply the resurfacing compound evenly across the entire surface.
Texture and Finish Customisation
Once the resurfacer is applied, we begin the finishing process by applying the desired texture, pattern, or style to the surface.
Final Inspection and Curing
Once the finishing touches are complete, we conduct a thorough, detailed final inspection. The resurfaced area is then left to cure and harden
Finish and Colour Options
We offer a range of finishes and colours for our customers. Depending on the view you want to create and the location, you might choose:
- Spray-on resurfacing: A textured coating suited to driveways, paths and patios.
- Stone or resin overlay: A decorative finish containing small stones bound with resin.
- Flake finish: Coloured flakes that create a patterned surface. Often used with an epoxy coating on garage floors.
- Stencil patterns: These patterns can copy the appearance of brick, tile or stone without those materials being laid.
