Decorative flake systems may be tailored to better meet the functional demands of a specific location, with applications in a variety of sectors. Such as the flexibility to pick from a variety of textures to assist prevent slip and fall accidents, or ornamental systems that can survive extreme temperature fluctuations while also inhibiting microbe development and a variety of other unique formulas.
Fluid applied flooring solutions offer the advantage of being almost seamless, which eliminates the majority of cracks and creases where dust, mildew and bacteria tend to collect and thrive. Because of the monolithic surface of resinous flooring, it is simple to clean with a hose if necessary and is also robust enough to survive the application of many harsh chemical cleaners.
Floor coatings provide a strong barrier over the concrete substrate they are applied to, resulting in increased scratch resistance, improved load bearing capabilities and ultimately a longer concrete floor lifespan.

Jason and Tiffany wanted to make a lasting change to their patio. It wasn’t necessarily an eye sore however the house didn’t seem finished. They reached out to us to see what options we could do that would protect their concrete but give them the curb appeal they were looking for. We came up with an option that wouldn’t take away from the house but give it that finished look that they were looking for. That option was a poly flake floor. Jason and Tiffany Chose to go with our Stone Series Flake ( Obsidian 1/8in) They chose the smaller flake for the subtle look. The front patio was finished Right before their big halloween party in 2021. It was a tight deadline but we made it happen.
Fast forward to 2022.
The back patio, The hot tub hang out was looking a bit drab. A few years back Jason Decided to stain it himself with a “good “ off the shelf stain and sealer. He wanted to accomplish a nice look but protect the concrete from constant water from the hot tub. The stain only lasted a few months before flaking off and causing issues. After seeing our work on the front patio they knew it was time to lick their wounds and get the back patio done. We ground off the failing stain and Put down the same 1/8in Obsidian flake system that was done on the front. This gave them the protection they were looking for and the same
Ross and Emily joined house holds a while back and since then have made some major changes to their house to make it their own. They added on creating 2 living spaces one with a wet bar, updated kitchen, and a few more bedrooms. After finishing the inside they decided to get the exterior finished with a new patio. The last project was the garage where they wanted it to represent the rest of the house but also have a nice space for their vehicles and another option for entertaining. After seeing a friend’s garage floor, Ross and Jen Johnson’s a past Paveman Customer and 2020 Caleb Eide Memorial Floor giveaway Certificate winner, they knew exactly how they wanted it finished off. Ross K. had heard that we were doing another Floor Certificate at the 2022 Caleb Eid Memorial Golf Tournament. Since he was going to do the floor anyway he decided to bid on the certificate ( It was his before it started) “ I was spending the money anyway, Why not put it toward, something that is going to help” Needless to say he won the certificate while saving giving to the foundation and saving some money on his floor. We had started the conversation about the floor and were excited to move forward. Some of the big concerns they had were the condition of the floor. The concrete was pitied by the garage doors and had a few areas that were cracked and coming up.
We found that the floor needed some major repairs as the floor had popped in a few areas and needed some repairs to the football-sized holes. With the garage painted and the floor done they now have the last project finished and are able to use their garage worry-free.
