Surface repair & restoration
Fix what's underneath before you finish the top.
Crack repair, pit filling, joint restoration, and mechanical preparation — the substrate work that decides whether a coating lasts.
Ideal for
- Slabs with visible cracks or pitting
- Surfaces that need restoration before coating
- Damaged joints and control cuts
- Prior coating failures being remediated
Common surface problems
- Cracks telegraphing through prior finishes
- Pits and voids that fail cheaper coatings
- Delaminated old coatings that must come up
- Uneven, patchwork slabs from prior contractors
The Robbford solution
Preparation-first coating systems.
We inspect the concrete, document damage, mechanically grind the surface, and address cracks and pits with matched repair materials before any coating begins. Restoration is often part of a coating install — sometimes it's the whole scope.
Installation process
Eight steps, every project.
- 01
Inspect the concrete
We assess the slab, layout, transitions, and drainage before proposing a system.
- 02
Identify damage and moisture
Cracks, pits, hollow spots, and moisture behavior are documented up front.
- 03
Mechanically grind the surface
Diamond grinding creates the profile a coating needs to bond mechanically — not just chemically.
- 04
Repair cracks and pits
Voids and damaged sections are filled and shaped so the finish reads clean.
- 05
Apply premium polyurea base
A fast-setting polyurea base coat locks into the prepared profile.
- 06
Broadcast decorative flakes
Vinyl flakes are broadcast to full rejection for a uniform, seamless field.
- 07
Scrape, vacuum, top with polyaspartic
The excess is removed and a UV-stable polyaspartic clear seals the system.
- 08
Final inspection & walkthrough
We walk the finished surface with you and confirm the work meets our standard.
Benefits
Why customers choose this system.
Right base for coating
A repaired substrate is what a premium system needs.
Clean, unified field
Repairs are shaped so the finish reads consistent.
Documented condition
You see what we found before we cover it up.
Longer service life
Coatings over prepared concrete outlast shortcut installs.
Fewer callbacks
Substrate work eliminates the most common failure points.
Honest scope
If a slab isn't a candidate for a system, we say so.
