 Polyaspartic Basement Coating

WHAT IS POLYASPARTIC COATING?

Polyaspartic coating is a fast-drying substance that closely resembles polyurethane. Originally used to quote exposed metal components in bridges, polyaspartic coating was later adapted for use in residential property, most notably in garages and basement flooring. This type of coating can be applied with a roller brush, although its fast drying nature means the job is best left to the experts.

SCRATCH PROTECTION

Polyaspartic coating forms a very tough layer over basement or garage floors when it properly sets. This makes the floor less likely to get scratches or cracks caused by moving around furniture or general foot traffic. It also helps create a smoother surface, which makes it easier to move around heavy objects.

MOISTURE PROTECTION

Originally used to keep metal from getting exposed to moisture, polyaspartic coating also turns the basement floor into a waterproof surface. This is essential in preventing damage caused by leaks from the plumbing or from a leaky egress window, allowing you to save on costly repair bills.

AN ODORLESS CHOICE

Other basement floor coating alternatives like epoxy tend to release chemicals into the air. This drastically reduces indoor air quality and can even be unsafe for certain individuals. Polyaspartic coating is completely odorless and perfectly safe during the hour or so it takes to set on basement or garage floors.
