Yes, you can achieve 100% efficiency with concrete flooring as compared to any other floor coverings.

The best way is to clean and seal your concrete annually to remove corrosive salts and contamination. To make you life easier we can maintain you concrete for you or teach you to maintain it yourself.

Every project and piece of concrete is as unique as a snowflake. As such the wonderful thing about decorative concrete is it is always a one-of-a-kind creation. We can use similar stains or products to create looks however your floor will be unique to you.

We specialize in transforming, repairing and most importantly protecting existing concrete. We can make your new concrete floor look like polished marble or put the Mona Lisa in your driveway.

ACC offers a unique program that allows Owners to participate in their projects. We provide equipment, materials and on-site training and you provide some of the labour for the project to receive a labour credit to help save you $$$.

Call us anytime if you have questions, we are always happy to help.

We recommend that exterior concrete be cleaned and sealed annually. Interior or vertical concrete needs to be sealed occasionally depending on the amount of wear and traffic the surface is under.

Get it fixed properly as soon as possible. Patches and coatings will have indicators on the underside to reveal why they are failing. Poor bonding to the concrete due to dust or contamination is the most common cause.

We prefer to go with Polyaspartic as the flexible properties allow for things like tool dropping and tire traffic to not damage the surface. Whereas Epoxy is a ridged coating and will break if something was dropped with force.

Decorative concrete flooring always makes a timeless statement. Typically it is taking advantage of the existing concrete to create a high end finished product without having to ship in other materials. It is extremely durable and easy to maintain which makes this a forever floor.

A bond breaker is any contaminate that fills the pours of the concrete preventing the proper connection of other products to the surface.

ACC stands behind our workmanship for life, if the flooring has to be repaired due to our work we will do it at our cost, however if you damage the flooring we will charge you to repair it.

We don’t do a garage in a day!! It takes longer for cements and coatings to cure between proper steps. Most decorative projects take 3- 7 days to complete.

Depending on the surface conditions you can apply cement levellers to help flatten out the concrete.

Identify the probable cause of the pooling first, then you might be able to level or slope the concrete before applying a coating to protect the concrete in the garage.

It varies from $1 per foot to re-seal a driveway to $250 per foot to do a custom concrete countertop. Cost depends on the size, complexity of the project and materials used.

Not only can we help design and complete your project but in most cases you also have an opportunity to work on it with us as well.
