Why Deco Crete floors? Why not tile? Many reasons exist. To name a few, we can offer endless color and design options as you will see below. In addition, many of our flooring systems are seamless, meaning grout lines do not exist, making our floors very easy to clean and non-bacterial harboring. Ever seen old grout in a bathroom? -Yuck! All of our flooring is permanent and resilient, making the life-cycle cost of installation and maintenance, the lowest in the market. In addition, Deco Crete offers so many composition materials for your floor including epoxy matrices mixed with wood chips, vinyl, marble, granite, quartz and more. A very large difference in what we have to offer as well, includes sealer options. For the finish coat, we can add a sealer to meet every qualification including meeting USDA standards, chemical resistance, non-yellowing 100% UV resistant epoxies, gloss or matte finish, light dissipation, thermal shock protection and even a surface that has earned an ADA rating of 8. Lastly, isn't uniqueness worth something? Everyone has tile, carpet and wood floors! When it comes to originality, Deco Crete earns an A+. Deco Crete also has something else to offer that the competition usually does not. Installation of an undercoating membrane will eliminate vapor transmission issues and divest you from large flooring adhesion and bacterial growth problems down the road that could be very, very costly. In addition, Deco Crete can also install a crack isolating membrane that will prevent cracks in the concrete from transmitting up through the finished floor. This membrane will also allow us to create a truly seamless floor since the membrane will traverse the saw-cut joints, eliminating the need to honor their existence on the finished floor surface.
Similar to quartz flooring, vinyl chip products are great for garage floors as well as commercial applications. The appearance is somewhat similar to a granite composite. As with quartz flooring, vinyl chip flooring is 100% solids, so no VOCs are present. In addition, a chemically resistant, non-yellowing finish will provide a resilient surface for any commercial project.
"Modello" is an Italian word meaning, "pattern" or "I model" which is a fitting name for these floors that offer clients any pattern of their choosing. Below are examples of this type of stenciled floor that can best be described as unique, elegant and in any atmosphere, absolutely fabulous. Hundreds of stencil are available to chose from. Or, our fabricators can custom create one for you from any drawing or picture!
Terrazzo is nothing new to the flooring industry. However, its elegance and utility for creating fascinating designs makes this flooring product a "must have" for our repertoire of products. Used for many years on commercial projects and fine homes, terrazzo flooring is available to you through Deco Crete. For those of you not familiar with terrazzo, it is a an extremely durable floor made from an epoxy matrix and aggregates gained from marble, granite and other stone quarries. Installed at 1/4" to 1/2", this product has a much faster setting time than the older, cementitious terrazzo that used to be commonly installed. Epoxy terrazzo floors can be installed in as little as three days. The other advantage of epoxy terrazzo is that it is available in unlimited colors. Acid stained floors are created by applying a solution that interacts with chemicals in the concrete, actually changing the color of the concrete itself. The final product is a floor colored with variegated, translucent effects. Many different types of sealers are available to finish off the floor resulting in anywhere from a high sheen to a matte finish. As you will see from the pictures, Deco Crete takes their acid stain projects one step further than the competition, resulting in a highly refined floor that is suitable for many environments. Many times, acid stained floors completed by other contractors yield an industrial, rough looking floor that just does not have the elegance for use in many locations. A floor created by moving special pigments through forced heat and air flow during the application process, the Mirage line is nothing like you have ever seen before. This flooring product is the most dazzling on the market, hands down. The appearance or "illusion" of light reflecting off the pigments in the floor will change with the position of the spectator. Some of the colors actually change color as well, based upon the observers vantage point. If looking for something truly unique, we guarantee the Jones's do not have this flooring! |
