Flaking coating is a bond failure — the coating has lost its grip on the concrete and is breaking off in pieces. Patch-coating over flaking systems guarantees failure within a year.
- Diamond grinding for true bond
- Polyurea crack repair
- Moisture testing on every slab
- 15-year written warranty
- Free on-site estimates

Common Causes
1. Acid-etched (not ground) prep 2. Coating applied over a sealed or dusty slab 3. Cheap aromatic epoxy that became brittle from UV exposure 4. Too cold or too hot during original cure
Why It Matters
1. Loose chips and slip hazards 2. Rapidly spreading damage as more coating loses bond 3. Failed system gives water a path to attack from below
Our Professional Solution
Full mechanical removal — diamond grinder, shot blaster, or both.
Moisture testing and primer if MVER is high.
Fresh 100%-solids epoxy basecoat, decorative broadcast, and two coats of polyaspartic topcoat.
15-year written warranty on the new system.
Why Professional Coating Beats Every Alternative
Bond failure can only be fixed by removing what's failed. We have the diamond equipment, dust extraction, and labor to do it right in one or two days.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you fix this in my Huntsville home or shop?+
Yes. We diagnose every floor on-site, document the failure mode, and provide a written itemized estimate before any work begins.
How long will the repair last?+
Our hybrid epoxy + polyaspartic systems carry a 15-year written warranty. With proper diamond-ground prep and the right chemistry, expected lifespan is 15 to 20+ years.
Will I need to replace the entire slab?+
Almost never. We restore 95% of damaged slabs we evaluate. Replacement is only required for severe structural failure.
