Concrete underlayment is a thin coating material that is poured over a concrete substrate. The material smooths out imperfections, creating a flat base that is ready to accept a variety of other floor coverings, such as carpet, tile, vinyl, etc. Underlayment can provide a quick and affordable fix to floors that are heavily cracked, pitted, or uneven. Rather than ripping out and replacing the concrete subfloor, underlayment covers imperfections, provides a seal to prevent moisture damage, and is more cost-effective. Read all about the what, why, and how in our blog "Do's and Don'ts of Installing Concrete Underlayments and Overlays" here: https://hubs.ly/Q02G6Dyt0

Easy Bake Oven is fun when we were kids, but nowadays, we got some skilled kids that they could even mix cement, but that's not recommended! Before we pour, we mix high quality concrete on-site. We pour concrete on many jobs. This conjunction of poured concrete is used on basement flooring and walkways. It is not skim coating to finish the flooring. Want more tips on how we use poured concrete? Here's a short video! #smoothconcrete #finishingtouches #foundationrepair https://lnkd.in/gZzAgjbZ

Polished concrete works great where a low maintenance and abrasion resistant finish is needed. Foot and wheeled traffic do little to degrade the durable surface. One of its few performance limitations, though, is its inability to mask color variation or areas that have been patched. The choice, therefore, to do a polish may require some flexibility for preexisting conditions. The video documents an unforeseen circumstance of polishing an existing slab. The concrete had carpet and vinyl covering it. Once these old materials were removed, and the floor was planned to be polished, some accommodation had to be made for data and electrical boxes. 🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸 #POLISHEDCONCRETE #SURFACEPREPARATION

The base environment of the construction site is more complex, and if it is not handled properly, it is very easy to lead to empty tiles and fall off. Such as the surface of the concrete base is too smooth, residual release agent; Thin plaster base empty drum or strength is not up to standard; The quality and matching of waterproof layer materials, these three points are the main reasons for the hollow drum of ceramic tiles.

Proper leveling of concrete after slab casting is essential to ensure a smooth, even surface, which prevents water pooling and structural issues. It also enhances the slab's load distribution, reduces cracking risks, and provides a solid foundation for finishes like tiles or flooring.

Exposed aggregate concrete is a concrete surface that has the "cream layer" removed to expose the rock or pebble. The type of rock or river-pebble is usually specified to give the concrete surface a decorative look. Exposed aggregate can be used on driveways, walkways, porch/patios, pool decks, retaining walls, etc. Exposed aggregate is very popular and looks amazing. It does need to be maintained by keeping a clear sealant, so the exposed river-pebble from coming loose due to freeze-thaw damage. Damage can be repaired but it hardly ever matches the original surface.
