Urethane Cement Flooring in Coral Terrace FL - a floor that takes impact, spills and heat
If your concrete floor is chipped, stained or takes heat and spills every day, we put down a seamless urethane cement floor built for it.
Is urethane cement the right floor for your concrete?
Urethane cement flooring is a heavy-duty, seamless floor we put down over concrete in Coral Terrace for garages, shops and other floors that take impact, scraping traffic, chemical spills and sudden swings in temperature.
Most calls about it come from a garage, shop or utility floor that's chipped, stained or always getting wet. The price moves with the size of the floor, how much grinding and surface prep the slab needs, how many cracks need work and whether the floor needs a slope to a drain or a topcoat for sun. The schedule turns on that prep, on the humidity on install day, since one maker requires it below 80% when the floor goes down, and on the days the floor needs to cure before you use it. The scope I write after seeing your floor gives you your own figure.
Why people call Stonegate for urethane cement

The owner on every job
I come out to look at every floor myself and stay on site while our crew does the work.
In business since 2017
I started this business in Coral Terrace in 2017 after learning concrete and coatings under an experienced installer.
Licensed and insured for every job
We're fully licensed and insured, whether the floor is a home garage or a shop a property manager runs.
Slow work under the finish
We spend our time on prep, because the concrete under the coat decides whether a floor holds up or lets go.

Two ways we put down urethane cement
We suggest urethane cement for floors that take impact, spills or heat, and ask early whether water must drain. For living spaces, polished concrete or stained concrete usually fits better.

How much does urethane cement flooring cost in Coral Terrace?
There's no set price, because the cost comes from your slab and what the floor has to handle. A floor that needs heavy prep, crack repair, a slope to a drain or a UV-stable topcoat costs more than a sound, flat floor indoors. The quote I write after seeing your floor is the figure to go by.
How long does a urethane cement floor take to cure before I can walk on it?
At 77°F and 50% relative humidity, one maker's self-leveling floor takes light foot traffic after 12 hours, light wheel traffic after 24 hours and reaches full cure after 7 days. Those times hold for those conditions, so we go by the maker's instructions for the product on your floor and help you plan when you get the room back around full cure.
Will a urethane cement floor fade or discolor in the sun?
It can, because one maker says its self-leveling urethane cement isn't UV stable and will discolor unless it gets a UV-stable topcoat. If any part of your floor gets sun, through an open garage door or a window, we plan that topcoat from the start so it's in the scope and not a surprise later.
Can urethane cement go over a damp concrete slab?
It's one of the floors worth considering for a damp slab, since one maker reports great success with cementitious urethanes on high-moisture slabs, old or new. That goes for a slab on the ground or a raised one, and I'll tell you what I find on yours before we commit to anything.
Do I need a permit for urethane cement flooring in Coral Terrace?
County guidance lists resurfacing a floor as work that doesn't need a permit, but the office that covers your address decides for your job. We check early which office that is and tell you what we find, and if the job needs a permit, we apply for it as your licensed contractor.
What is the best way to handle cracks before a urethane cement floor goes down?
Deal with them before the coat goes on, because one maker says moving joints and cracks can show through the finished floor. The same maker calls for mechanical prep and prefers shotblasting, which roughens the slab with fine steel shot, since a grinder has a hard time reaching the roughness it needs. We'll tell you how we plan to handle your cracks before work starts, and if one may still show, I'll say so.

Before anything else, we find out which office covers your property, because each Miami-Dade city has a Building Official who issues permits inside its own limits, and the county's permit process only covers unincorporated addresses, the ones whose folio number starts with "30". You can see which city your property sits in through the Property Appraiser, and the county's permit page explains how that first step works.
The county's Contractor Licensing Section licenses contractors working in Miami-Dade, and at the state level a certified license works anywhere in Florida while a registered one only covers the places where the contractor holds a certificate of competency. We're based in Coral Terrace and work across Miami-Dade, and we get the same calls in Westchester and Kendall, from homeowners with garages and slab rooms and from property managers with shop floors.
