What drives time
Floor size, condition, number of steps, repairs, curing times for fillers and densifier, and access.
Typical phases
Preparation and repairs, grinding, densifying and polishing, guard and burnish. Each has its own time.
Curing and waiting
Fillers and sealers need time to cure. We plan this into the schedule.
Getting an estimate
Share the size and condition, and we provide a schedule with the quote.
A planning example
A small, clean room can be completed within a short work period, while a large warehouse is normally split into zones and phases so the business can keep running. Prep work on a coated or damaged slab adds time before polishing even starts.
Weather and humidity
Florida humidity and rain affect drying time for densifier, dye and guards. Crews plan around the forecast, and indoor work may still need good airflow.
When the floor can be used
Light foot traffic usually returns quickly after the final steps, with heavy equipment waiting a bit longer. We tell you exactly when each zone can be used.
Use the Timeline Planner
The Timeline Planner on this site gives a rough sequence of phases for the area you enter, so you can plan around it.
Quick answers
Can it be done in a weekend?
Small floors can. Larger ones are phased.
When can we walk or drive on it?
