A Basement Alternative: Grind and Seal

As one of the leading installers in the Pacific Northwest for concrete coatings, we are seeing a growing trend in changing up the usual household flooring look of carpet or hardwoods to transforming concrete into something that makes your house stand out from the crowd!

We specialize in a number of applications for concrete floors found inside and out of your home but one of the most popular trends that’s sweeping through some of our customer’s homes are Grind and Seals. The Grind and Seal application is a fantastic alternative solution to solid color epoxy coatings, carpet, tile, vinyl, etc. Grind and Seals bring out the natural beauty of the concrete, much like polished concrete, but without the price. These systems are easy to install, easy to maintain, and easy to clean!

Basements have been at the forefront of home remodels within the last few years. A few reasons that contribute to this trend include flood repair, investing in adding value to a home with additional living space square footage, general remodels, repairs, and room to home office conversions due to COVID.

A Grind and Seal concrete floor can accent any kind of interior design, help maintain a cleaner environment, and give a modern and unique look to your home that you won’t find anywhere else. Check out the list below of some of the benefits that come with this application.

Why consider a Grind and Seal for your home and business?

  • Cost effective compared to a polished concrete surface

  • The sealant used creates a non-porous surface, so it won’t create areas for bacterial growth or staining

  • This system is resistant to high abrasion wear and tear

  • Seamless surface, no grout joints to maintain

  • UV resistant

  • Slip resistant

  • Low VOC

  • Low maintenance and easy to clean

  • High quality commercial grade products

Some of the most common areas you can utilize this system are in basements, hallways, entryways, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, pantries, living rooms and offices. The coating can also be used commercially for retail stores, lobbies, business offices, clinics, and more.
