Your concrete driveways, sidewalks, patios, and other floors will require maintenance, so applying concrete sealing Sydney can be a cost-efficient strategy. At Concrete Coatings Sydney, we suggest sealing your concrete floors once every four years or earlier based on usage and traffic to prolong their service life.
So, what is concrete sealing and what are its benefits and applications? Find out how our experienced and professional team can help seal your concrete surfaces.
Concrete sealing involves applying a special compound to concrete to create a protective layer against any form of contaminant. The seal also increases the surface’s durability and makes it easier to clean. We provide a wide range of sealant options for your residential or commercial needs.
Benefits of Concrete Sealing Sydney
When it comes to deciding whether your surfaces need concrete sealing Sydney, it is important to realise that prevention is always better than cure. Periodic sealing is much more cost-effective than major repairs or replacements. We work with different types of sealants including penetrating sealers, polyurethanes, acrylics, and epoxies.
Some of the key benefits of sealing concrete surfaces are as follows:
- You will get a low-maintenance surface that is easier to clean.
- The growth of mould and mildew slows down in damp areas.
- Ability to improve the appearance of the sealed surface.
- There is a lesser risk of getting permanent stains due to spillages and other factors.
- The concrete surface will look like new for longer.
- The colour will last longer.
Commonly Sealed Concrete Surfaces
We regularly seal the following concrete surfaces:
Concrete Driveways: Our concrete sealing Sydney services for your driveway means better protection against stains from fluids leaking from vehicles, preventing water from entering pores and improving resistance to cracks, reduced chances of chips and wear, and protection against UV rays.
Patios: Sealing a concrete patio helps enhance the surface’s colours. We can use the right sealant to darken the existing colour, giving your patio a more vibrant appearance. You can also control the level of gloss. By closing any pores, the sealant can keep out moisture and prevent spalling and mould and mildew growth. Preventing cracks, deterring colour fading, and resisting stains are additional benefits.
Sidewalks: Sealing also fills in any pores or minor cracks in your sidewalks and creates a protective layer against staining, wear and tear, and the elements. Improved ice and moisture resistance can further assist with walking safely on the sidewalks.
Pool Decks: Pool decks are exposed to the damaging effects of the elements and salt water. Professional sealing helps protect the concrete, creates a non-slip surface, and improves the deck’s looks. You can choose between wet-look, high-gloss, flat, and natural sealers.
Garage Floors: Sealing your garage floor helps repel moisture. Besides filling in any pores, the right seal can also prevent your coloured concrete garage floor from flaking, fading, or peeling off. Oils and grease spills are common on garage floors, but with the right sealer, you will no longer have to worry about staining. Any such liquids can be easily wiped clean.
Warehouse Floors: Concrete sealing Sydney makes your warehouse floor resistant to the effects of moisture, stains from greasy materials, and protection against different types of chemical agents. Besides, sealing can also make it much simpler to clean your warehouse floors. You can choose from a wide range of colours, including transparent options to create a look of your choice.
Parking Lots: Our concrete sealing services also extend your parking lot’s service life by filing in any surface cracks or pores and creating a protective barrier against vehicle fluids, water, and UV rays. Sealing can help reduce the long-term cost of repairs, prevent snow and ice damage, and improve curb appeal.
