Dynamic, Durable and Cost Effective... "Concrete Stain Floors"
Concrete Stain Floors!! You've seen them in hotels, custom homes, restaurants, pubs, casinos, and shopping malls, what are they?
This incredible flooring option is slowly making it's way into the hearts and minds of America and the rest of the world for that matter.
Why is this distinctive flooring option becoming so popular? Not only are concrete stain floors beautiful, the benefits are numerous as they are easy to maintain, priced less than tile and most good carpet, definitely less than hardwoods and when was the last time you saw anyone destroy a concrete floor? Durable, to say the least.
Simple dust mopping, an occasional damp mop and a twice a year wax, which takes 15 minutes, is all that is required to maintain these incredible floors.
In the last few years we have seen the rise in the popularity of these floors but have also been dismayed at the lack of information available to the consumer.
We decided we would step up to the plate and take responsibility for educating the public about these wonderful floors, concrete acid stain floors. In additon we have formulated a new line of acid stains that make it easier for the DIYer and the professional alike to stain their floors with products that are more eco-friendly and don't require the usual neutralization.
What this means is you save about 1/3 of the labor of not having to scrub the floor with a buffer and white pad (after application of the stain). You need only to rinse the floor with water and lightly scrub with a broom or brush. Vacuum the water and you're ready to seal (after thorough drying of course). Compare that with neutralizing the floor with ammonia or baking soda, scrubbing with a buffer and white pad and then vacuuming and I think you can see that we have a significantly better way to do things here at CDR.
There are very simple steps to this process and we don't want you to be taken advantage of. I think you know what I mean by that statement.
Concrete stain floors are installed through hard work and common sense, we will lead you through the process. Whether you want to do them yourself or just want to make sure they are installed properly, we will be your guiding hand.
