FINISH OPTIONS
Choose your decorative system
We offer six decorative floor systems — each one custom to your space, your style, and your specific concrete conditions.
Full broadcast chip blend
Wall-to-wall vinyl chip coverage over an epoxy base. The most popular decorative finish — hundreds of color blends, natural slip resistance, and hides minor imperfections beautifully.
Most popular
Metallic epoxy
A premium multi-layer system that creates a flowing, three-dimensional appearance. Every metallic install is completely unique — no two floors look identical. Ideal for showrooms and statement spaces.
Solid color system
A uniform color finish across the entire floor. Clean, modern, and available in a wide range of standard and custom colors. Popular for showrooms, retail floors, and minimalist interiors.
Partial broadcast chip
A lighter chip density that lets the base color show through, creating a speckled terrazzo-style appearance. More subtle than full broadcast — great for modern interior aesthetics.
Quartz broadcast system
Colored quartz aggregate broadcast into the epoxy base for a highly textured, slip-resistant finish. Ideal for wet areas, pool surrounds, and high-safety commercial spaces.
Solid color with flake accent
A solid color base with a light scatter of contrasting flake for subtle texture. Clean and modern without the busy look of full broadcast — popular in home gyms and finished basements.
WHY DECORATIVE COATING
Beauty and durability aren't a trade-off
Every decorative system we install is built on the same diamond ground foundation as our standard coatings — the visual result is just the beginning.
Unique to every install
No two decorative floors look exactly alike. The flowing nature of metallic systems and color variation in chip blends means your floor is one of a kind.
Hundreds of color options
We offer an extensive range of chip blends, metallic pigments, and solid colors. We bring samples to your estimate so you can see the finish before we start.
Lifetime warranty
Every decorative coating is backed by our lifetime warranty covering peeling, bubbling, and delamination — the beauty is permanent.
Diamond ground foundation
Even the most decorative finish is only as good as the prep beneath it. We diamond grind every decorative job — no shortcuts on the foundation.
Installed in one day
Most decorative systems are complete in a single day. The polyaspartic topcoat cures fast — light foot traffic same day, vehicles and full use within 24 hours.
Adds home value
A professionally installed decorative floor is a selling point. Buyers notice finished floors — especially in garages and basements where most floors are bare concrete.
IDEAL FOR
Where decorative finishes work best
Decorative systems work in almost any concrete space — here are the most popular applications we see in Raleigh.
Residential garages
The most popular decorative application. A chip blend or metallic finish transforms a utilitarian garage into a space you're proud to show off. One-day install, lifetime warranty.
Finished basements
Home gyms, game rooms, and living spaces benefit enormously from a decorative floor — it completes the finished look and adds the durability the space needs.
Retail showrooms
A high-gloss metallic or chip floor creates a premium retail environment that stands out from standard commercial flooring and reinforces your brand identity.
Pool decks & patios
Quartz broadcast systems provide decorative color with the slip resistance and UV stability needed for outdoor concrete spaces in the Raleigh climate.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Decorative finishes FAQ
What Raleigh homeowners ask before booking a decorative estimate.
Can I choose my exact colors?
Yes — we bring physical chip and metallic samples to your estimate. Chip blends can be customized from our range of colors. For exact color matching, let us know at the estimate and we'll discuss options.
Will the floor look exactly like the samples?
Chip blends will closely match the sample. Metallic systems are inherently variable — the flowing, three-dimensional effect is unique to each install. We'll show you photos of similar metallic jobs so you know what to expect.
Are decorative floors slippery?
Chip and quartz systems have natural texture and slip resistance. Solid color and metallic systems are smooth — we can add anti-slip aggregate to the topcoat at no extra charge if needed.
How do I maintain a decorative floor?
A damp mop is all you need for regular cleaning. Avoid harsh abrasives or acid-based cleaners. The polyaspartic topcoat is highly resistant to staining — most spills wipe up without any trace.
Will it fade or yellow over time?
No — our polyaspartic topcoat is UV-stable, which prevents yellowing and color fade even in garages with natural light. The finish you get on day one is the finish you'll have for life.
Can decorative finishes be installed over existing coatings?
It depends on the condition of the existing coating. Failed coatings must be removed first. We assess this at the estimate and will tell you honestly whether the existing surface is suitable for a decorative install.
