Polyurea floor coatings in Nashville

Fast, flexible and resilient: a rapid-cure base that moves with your slab through Tennessee’s temperature swings.

Polyurea is a rapid-curing, flexible coating chemistry that grips concrete tightly and tolerates temperature swings well. Its flexibility helps it ride along with minor slab movement, and its quick cure shortens downtime.

Polyurea is most often used as a base coat in a system. Because UV stability depends on the specific chemistry, we usually finish a polyurea base with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat, which is the combination behind our premium hybrid floors.

Flexible film

Handles slab movement and temperature swings with less risk of cracking.

Rapid cure

Short wait times keep disruption low.

Strong bond

Excellent adhesion to prepared concrete.

Works well in systems

Pairs with flakes, quartz and polyaspartic topcoats.

  1. 1

    Grind the slab

    We create a clean, open profile for maximum bond.

  2. 2

    Repair and fill joints

    Cracks and joints are filled with flexible materials where appropriate.

  3. 3

    Apply the polyurea base

    The base is applied quickly and evenly, then decorative layers are added.

  4. 4

    Topcoat

    A UV-stable topcoat finishes the floor.

Finishes that pair well

Pick the look.

Any finish can be built on Polyurea or paired with a topcoat. These are the most popular.

Polyurea FAQ

Polyurea questions.

Is polyurea the same as polyaspartic?

Polyaspartic is a type of aliphatic polyurea. Traditional polyurea tends to be more flexible and quicker, while polyaspartic is prized for UV stability and clarity.

Does polyurea yellow?

Some polyurea chemistries can yellow in sunlight, which is why we top them with a UV-stable layer.

Is it a good fit for a cold garage?

Polyurea systems are known for working across wide temperature ranges. We confirm the conditions before we schedule.
