Common Questions
How long does installation take?
Standard jobs finish in 3-5 days, including prep, primer, base, and topcoat. Single coat quicker at 1-2 days.
Does it crack easily?
Cracks occur only on shifting foundations or weak bases. Proper prep prevents this; lasts 10-20 years.
Is it slip-resistant?
Gloss finishes slip; add aggregates like quartz for grip in wet areas, at extra cost.
How to maintain it?
Mop with detergent weekly; avoid abrasives. Reseal every few years; repair kits fix chips.
Cheaper than tiles?
Basic resin undercuts budget tiles; premium matches high-end. No grout lines save cleaning time.
