Nothing’s better than watching your home valuation increase over time. It provides a sense of financial well-being. The latent capital in your home can help you in retirement or provide a safety net if times get tough. Or maybe you’ve bought your home as a short term investment…a pending flip. So with each home improvement project you take on, increasing …
Just as in painting, installation of epoxy flooring is as much about the preparation as it is about application. Accordingly, high-quality concrete preparation requires careful attention to the repair of hairline cracks, spalling, pitting and major cracks. Besides, proper concrete crack repair enhances the final appearance of your epoxy floor. Concrete crack repair can vary considerably from job to job. …
In prior blogs, we’ve covered a lot of topics from concrete preparation and moisture-mitigation to improving the customer experience. But this time around, I’m invoking the “A picture is worth a thousand words” adage by showing several before and after epoxy installs. Nothing gets us more business than showing our customer prospects what their garage could look like! Peeling Paint …

You’ve heard the festive holiday music in the cafes and retail stores. Yes, it’s that time of year. Bet your wondering what gift you should get your significant other this holiday season?

In certain areas of your home or business, carpet, tile and vinyl flooring may make perfect sense. But in areas where heavy traffic, heavy loads, high impact or harsh environments rule, carpet, tile and vinyl flooring just won’t cut it.
