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.

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.

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.

...READ MOREOver the past few years, vinyl tile has become an especially popular flooring material. It is extremely durable, scratch resistant, almost entirely waterproof, easy to clean, affordable – all while coming in shapes and styles that are typically difficult with other types of flooring. But vinyl tile has a few challenges, and one of the most common is that its longevity is often almost entirely based on the subfloor. Vinyl tile is thin, and if the subfloor is not perfectly level, there are risks that the connection between flooring will start to snap and disconnect under the pressure. Once vinyl flooring starts to disconnect in one area, it typically spreads to others until the flooring needs to be replaced.
