Difficult-to-Clean Floors

Rough, porous, or textured floors trap dirt. Choosing the right surface — coating type, texture level, sheen — makes cleaning drastically easier. Every slab is different, so recommendations depend on an on-site evaluation — we do not diagnose specific floors from photos alone.

Common causes

  • Bare or overly rough concrete
  • Overly aggressive slip-resistant texture
  • Failing or damaged coatings

How we approach it

  • Coat with a cleanable system
  • Right-size texture for the environment
  • Repair damaged areas that trap contamination

Preparation

  1. On-site evaluation of the concrete and any existing coating
  2. Moisture and adhesion testing where warranted
  3. Full mechanical preparation before any new material is installed
  4. Compatible repair materials for cracks, spalls, and pits

Frequently asked

Does more slip resistance always mean harder to clean?

Yes, past a point. We size the texture for your slip needs and cleaning method.
