The floor of your warehouse or processing facility in Colorado needs to be many things – resistant to damage, long lasting, and easy for people and machinery to navigate. But if you are processing or storing any type of food in your facility or you simply want the indoor air quality to be healthier, you also need a floor that can contribute to a hygienic environment. Concrete warehouse floors, specifically polished concrete or epoxy coatings, offer the most hygienic flooring option for warehouses in Denver with natural qualities that repel dirt and bacteria while promoting easy cleaning. Why is Concrete a Cleaner Flooring Choice? The process of polishing concrete uses increasingly fine sanding to smooth out the natural ridges and pores in concrete, leaving the surface completely smooth and solid. Epoxy floors at warehouses achieve a similar effect by using a layer of epoxy to seal concrete floors and make them impenetrable. Another feature of concrete warehouse floors is that concrete allows for larger continuous surfaces, rather than individual sections that have gaps between them, such as tile or vinyl […]

When concrete at your facility becomes unlevel – causing doors to get stuck when you open them, laminate and LVP floors to start warping, or bumps and cracks to develop – this does not automatically mean that you will need to replace your concrete floors, sidewalks, driveways, patios, or other surfaces. Concrete leveling can often provide a long term fix instead. In many cases, concrete leveling can have your surface looking like new without needing to replace the entire slab. When you are debating between replacement and concrete leveling after concrete damage at your commercial property, these benefits can help you determine whether repair or leveling is the best choice. When to Choose Concrete Leveling Instead of Replacement Unlevel concrete can be the result of a number of causes. It may have occurred as the result of a faulty installation, wear and tear, or shifting ground due to environmental factors. As the concrete shifts, the stress can cause both visual and physical damage that needs to be repaired. Concrete leveling offers several benefits when compared with concrete replacement including: Lower […]
...READ MOREConcrete itself is an extremely durable material. But the surface that supports concrete, often a mixture of soil and gravel, may not be as resilient. During the concrete installation process, a good contractor will take steps to be sure that the ground is level and secure. Yet over time, weather can still cause that ground to shift. Denver is known for experiencing weather extremes, from the freezing days in the winter to temperatures that approach 100 degrees in the summer. The area also has relatively regular rain and snow. These weather conditions can contribute to concrete damage. Concrete leveling is often an effective solution to repair concrete after weather induced damage. How Denver’s Weather this Year Could Cause Concrete Damage Despite the warm dry conditions that Colorado experienced in the first half of winter this year, we have since seen plenty of freezing temperatures and several inches of snow, both conditions which can put significant stress on underlying soil. When summer comes and brings hot and dry temperatures, we anticipate additional problems. These weather conditions impact concrete in the following […]

Flooring with a smooth and high gloss is a popular look for warehouses and commercial facilities in Denver. Not only is it sleek and professional, but it is also easy for your employees and machinery to navigate. The two main ways to get this look are with polished concrete or grind and seal flooring. In terms of appearance, the two options look very similar, but the methods of achieving them, the resulting durability, and the cost make it important to choose the right one for your property. Differences Between A Polished Concrete and Grind and Seal Warehouse Floor Polished concrete relies on using commercial floor sanders with increasingly fine grains of diamond sanding. These diamonds hone a concrete floor to the desired level of gloss, ranging from matte to high gloss. Stain can be applied, if desired, to add color. but the end product is exposed concrete.. A grind and seal warehouse floor starts by grinding the existing concrete to make a smooth surface. The next step is cleaning and, if necessary, staining the concrete. A contractor then applies a […]

Warehouse line striping is the process of applying all of the necessary lines, directional guides, and safety indicators directly to the floor of your warehouse. These lines may be necessary to provide guidelines for employees or machinery, meet OSHA requirements, define spaces, and more. A new striping application provides lines that are bright, easy to see, and professional looking. Line striping is often done as part of a larger flooring project, but can also be a standalone project to refresh existing lines or add new lines. A challenge with any commercial flooring project in Denver is that it requires temporarily stopping operations in your facility while the lines dry. These are some of the factors that influence the curing time of line striping to help you anticipate how this project may interrupt your business operations. Drying Times for Materials Used for Warehouse Line Striping After line striping materials such as epoxy, polyurethane, or acrylic are applied, they need to completely cure before there is any traffic on them as this can cause lasting visual damage or reduce the lifespan of […]
