Question 1

What is the difference between epoxy and polished concrete?

Accepted Answer

Epoxy is a high-build resin coating applied over a concrete slab to form a non-porous, highly resistant protective barrier available in flake, solid color, or metallic movement finishes. Polished concrete, by contrast, mechanically grinds and chemically hardens the concrete slab itself to a high gloss without relying on a topical coating.

Question 2

Do you offer free estimates?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FLOORVIDA provides complimentary on-site technical assessments across Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties. We measure, conduct moisture readings, inspect slab integrity, and present a binding written quote.

Question 3

What is the best flooring for a residential entrance, garage, or pool deck?

Accepted Answer

For garages, multi-layer polyaspartic flake systems are superior due to zero yellowing and hot-tire resistance. For pool decks and exterior entries, broadcast quartz or textured cool-touch coatings provide UV stability and crucial wet anti-slip safety.

Question 4

How do I clean and maintain my new floor?

Accepted Answer

Resinous floors and polished concrete require minimal maintenance. Regular sweeping and damp mopping with neutral pH cleaners will preserve clarity. Avoid harsh acids or abrasive scrubbing pads.

Question 5

How long will an epoxy or resin floor last?

Accepted Answer

Properly prepared concrete (CSP 3 diamond ground) with industrial polyaspartic topcoats easily lasts 15 to 20+ years. All FLOORVIDA installations are backed by our 10-Year Limited Warranty.

Question 6

How long does installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most residential projects (garages, pool decks) take 2–4 days depending on system complexity and slab condition. Commercial projects vary based on square footage and operational scheduling requirements.

Question 7

Can you work around my business operations?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. For commercial installations, we offer phased scheduling, after-hours work windows, and rapid-cure polyaspartic systems that allow foot traffic within 24 hours of completion.

Question 8

What warranty do you provide?

Accepted Answer

Every FLOORVIDA installation includes a 10-year limited warranty covering material defects and workmanship failures. Extended warranty options are available for commercial accounts.

Question 9

Do you handle demolition and site preparation?

Accepted Answer

Yes — full-service surface preparation including existing coating removal, crack repair, concrete patching, shot blasting, and diamond grinding. Proper prep is the foundation of every lasting floor.

Question 10

Are you licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

FLOORVIDA holds a Florida state contractor license, carries $2 million in general liability insurance, and maintains full workers compensation coverage for all field crews. Certificates available upon request.
