You know it’s time to resurface a concrete patio when your pressure washer makes no impact on ugly cracks and stains. If you feel embarrassed about hosting guests or clients on the patio, it’s time to make a change.
However, many property owners resist because concrete resurfacing sounds messy. Additionally, business owners worry about closing for renovations, and homeowners worry about having contractors mixing messy materials on their properties.
Fortunately, EMC Concrete Coatings offers an alternative that delivers beautiful results in a fraction of the time. Instead of pouring new concrete and waiting weeks for it to cure, we clean the surface and coat it with epoxy.
The Benefits of Our Concrete Resurfacing Process
There are several reasons to resurface a concrete patio using epoxy.
Quick
The process is completed quickly with patios up to about 1,000 square feet, and you can walk on your new concrete surface when it is ready.
Revitalize the Surface
We grind away the ingrained dirt, revealing the pristine layer beneath it. Then, the sealant enhances the natural color and makes it look new.
Upgrade Your Style
Maybe you prefer an entirely new look. That’s simple to accomplish using flake additives.
You can select from a wide range of color combinations and looks to achieve a unique finish. We can also add quartz for sparkle and customize the look to match your decor or brand colors.
It’s possible to replicate the look of more expensive materials with this technique as well.
Another style benefit is creating a seamless look for different concrete patios and extending it inside. This design trick ensures continuity and makes the space look bigger.
Durable
The polyurea layer bonds to concrete and won’t peel, yellow, bubble, or lift. We recommend a polyaspartic topcoat for high-traffic areas because it:
- Resists scuffing, scratching, and chipping
- Is hard-wearing
- Top quality
- Has in-built UV-protection
- Resists most chemicals
- Is waterproof
Our high-quality epoxy topcoats share many of the same properties, so speak to us before resurfacing your concrete patio.
Low Maintenance
Concrete is a porous material. It only takes a few spills or heavy foot traffic to start looking grubby. It’s also likely to chip and crack with age due to use and extremes of temperature.
Concrete resurfacing renders it impervious to most spills and prevents staining. In addition, the epoxy layer protects the concrete from temperature extremes and structurally reinforces it.
Easy to Clean
An epoxy sealant repels liquids and dirt, so cleaning up your restaurant’s patio at the end of service is as simple as mopping up the mess. Using the garden hose on the surface at home will rinse away any soapy residue, resulting in a gleaming finish.
With epoxy, you can wipe away substances that ordinarily stain the surface quickly and easily.
Slip-Resistant
Whether in a busy retail environment or your home, a guest slipping on a wet patio can have significant liability implications. Epoxy and polyaspartic coatings help you manage this risk due to their built-in slip-resistant qualities.

Why do they keep coming back?
There’s an artistry in properly laying a sealant. Anyone can pour the product out of the tin, but it takes skill to ensure an even and durable finish. Talent and the right amount of preparation are crucial in this industry.
It’s here that we differentiate ourselves. We carefully grind the surface concrete to remove the dirt and roughen it for maximum adhesion. Then, we clean it and fill in any imperfections and cracks to ensure that we have the perfect surface to pour the sealant.
We then work quickly and carefully lay the first layer of polyurea and the flakes. We let this harden before leveling off any bits of fragments that are sticking out. Finally, we add the topcoat in a clean, even pour.
