Urethane Cement done in a day
Thermal shock and constant moisture destroy standard epoxy. Most jobs need one day of our time and none of yours.
Where the slab is damp or the temperature swings hard.
What we actually install
Cementitious urethane, moisture tolerant, laid over slabs epoxy cannot bond to.
Concrete varies street to street around here, so we check. Steam cleaning, freeze-thaw cycling and aggressive chemistry.

How the day runs
Grind
Cementitious urethane, moisture tolerant, laid over slabs epoxy cannot bond to.
Build
Steam cleaning, freeze-thaw cycling and aggressive chemistry.
Cure
One visit, one day, then 48 hours before the car goes back on.
What the install actually looks like
Preparation is the part customers never see and always pay for twice if it is skipped.
Preparation is the part customers never see and always pay for twice if it is skipped. We turn up with the grinder and the extraction first, and the first hour is dust and noise rather than anything that looks like progress. Cementitious urethane, moisture tolerant, laid over slabs epoxy cannot bond to.
Once the slab is open and clean we chase any cracks, fill them, and grind those flat. Then the primer goes down, and from that point the day is a sequence with cure windows in it rather than a job you can rush. Most residential floors go down in a single day. Walk on it in 12 hours, move heavy things at 24, park on it at 48.
This company exists to be passed down, which changes how carefully you work. That matters on a urethane cement job because the person who decided the spec is the person holding the squeegee, so nothing gets lost between the quote and the floor.
Used a lot of flooring companies over the years on various jobs and lemme tell you you’re in good hands with these guys. From the quote to the finished job they were nothing short of professional.Verified review
Other systems floors we coat
The slab decides the spec.
What we find under a urethane cement job
Where a floor has been patched repeatedly with different products, each patch behaves differently under a grinder and under resin. Sometimes the right call is removing the patches entirely.
A lot of the slabs we open up have been sealed at some point with an acrylic nobody remembers. It reads as clean concrete until the diamonds hit it and the surface loads up. That is a full mechanical removal, not a light scuff, and it changes the day.
The system we specify
The chip blend changes how a floor hides dirt. Multi-tone blends with some dark in them stay looking clean far longer than a single pale colour.
Cementitious urethane costs more than epoxy and outlives it in any wet or thermally cycled room. In a brewery or a food plant it is not an upgrade, it is the correct product.
Specified from the load, not a brochure.
Why the system matters more than the colour
A resin floor is four products stacked in order, and each one has a job. The primer wets into the open concrete and grips. The base coat builds thickness and carries the pigment. The broadcast layer, whether that is vinyl flake or graded quartz, gives the floor its texture and most of its wear resistance. The topcoat takes the abrasion and the UV so the layers underneath never see either.
Skip a layer and the floor still looks right on day one. It fails in month eight, usually along the door line where the sun hits or in the wheel tracks where the load concentrates. That is the difference between a coating and a system, and it is not visible in a photograph.
We grind, coat and topcoat in one visit on most residential jobs.
What we check before quoting
Thermal shock and constant moisture destroy standard epoxy.
What this floor has to put up with
Steam cleaning, freeze-thaw cycling and aggressive chemistry. Cementitious urethane, moisture tolerant, laid over slabs epoxy cannot bond to. That combination is what we specify against, and it is why a urethane cement job is quoted from the room rather than from a rate card.
Where the slab is damp or the temperature swings hard. A typical garage is a one day install. You are walking on it that evening.
Living with the floor afterwards
If a crack appears in the slab years later, that is the concrete moving, not the coating failing. It can be chased and repaired without redoing the floor.
Expect the finish to look the same in five years if it is looked after. That is the point of specifying properly rather than cheaply.
We work out of Laurel and cover roughly a hundred miles in every direction. That takes in Jones County, Rankin, Simpson and Lamar to the north and west, the whole Mississippi coast from Bay St. Louis through Biloxi to Pascagoula, across into Baldwin and Mobile County in Alabama, and west to St. Tammany Parish.

Questions we get asked
How long does a urethane cement job take?
Most jobs need one day of our time and none of yours.
What preparation does urethane cement need?
Cementitious urethane, moisture tolerant, laid over slabs epoxy cannot bond to. Every job starts the same way, with the slab itself.
Can it take the wear this room gets?
Steam cleaning, freeze-thaw cycling and aggressive chemistry. We specify the build thickness against the actual use, not a standard sheet.
Which areas do you cover?
Yes. We cover south Mississippi, the coast, coastal Alabama and St. Tammany Parish, roughly a hundred miles out from Laurel.
Is it your own crew?
Aaron, Kyler and Averie work with Kevin on every install. That is by design.
Can I see the colour before deciding?
Yes. We bring the chip deck out and you pick the blend against your own light and your own walls. Colours read differently under LED, under a skylight and under a garage door that is half open, so choosing off a photograph is how people end up disappointed.
What do you find under a floor like this?
Slabs with in-floor heat or embedded conduit change how aggressively we can grind. We locate it first rather than finding it with a diamond.
What maintenance does it need?
Snow and road salt tracked in should be rinsed off rather than left to dry. Salt is more aggressive to the concrete than to the coating.
What am I paying for in the build?
Metallic pigment is moved by hand while the resin is still open, so no two floors are the same. That is the appeal and it also means the installer matters more than the product.
Call and describe the floor. We will know most of it from that.
Four names, one crew. Kevin Garner built the company in 2021 to pass it on. Serving Laurel and south Mississippi, the Gulf Coast, coastal Alabama and St. Tammany Parish. See finished floors or get in touch.
