Polyaspartic Coatings in Los Angeles.

A polyaspartic-only system (no underlying epoxy). Single-coat or two-coat polyaspartic poured directly onto prepped concrete. Cures faster than epoxy, UV-stable, and walkable in 24 hours. Often the topcoat over our other systems but also works as a standalone.

What polyaspartic coatings actually is.

Common in exterior patios.

A polyaspartic-only system (no underlying epoxy). Single-coat or two-coat polyaspartic poured directly onto prepped concrete. Cures faster than epoxy, UV-stable, and walkable in 24 hours. Often the topcoat over our other systems but also works as a standalone.

The system

  • UV-stable formulation; clear coats stay water-white
  • Fast cure: pour in the morning, walk on it the next morning
  • Slip-rated and color-tint options
  • Used as topcoat on every metallic and flake system we install

What it costs

$5 to $9 per square foot for single-coat systems; $7 to $11 for two-coat.

How long it takes

One to two working days. Walkable 24 hours, full traffic 72 hours.

How long it lasts

10-20 years depending on traffic and exposure. UV-stable so won’t amber like uncoated epoxy.

Where this fits

Exterior patios, pool decks, walkways, anywhere UV exposure rules out bare epoxy. Also our standard topcoat on every other system.

How a polyaspartic coatings floor actually gets poured.

On-site walkthrough and slab inspection

01 Walkthrough

Owner on site. Moisture test of the slab. Photos of existing cracks. Palette options walked in person. Proposal in your inbox next morning.

Diamond-ground substrate ready for resin

02 Diamond grind

Surface prep to CSP-3 profile, HEPA vacuum, rapid-set polyurea on crack lines, re-grind. Where every floor lives or dies.

03 Pour

Resin mixed on site, broadcast or swirled to match the system. Signature work happens here. Notched-trowel finish before the working window closes.

04 Topcoat

Polyaspartic or polyurethane within the resin chemical window. Walkable 24 hours, full traffic 72 hours. Written job spec before we leave.

Where we install polyaspartic coatings.

We pour polyaspartic coatings across all of our service areas: Los Angeles County, Orange County, the Inland Empire, San Diego County, Ventura County, Kern County, and Santa Barbara County. The system itself is the same across cities. Substrate prep adjusts to local concrete age and moisture conditions.

Three rules we do not break on a polyaspartic coatings install.

Most of what separates a coating that lives 15 years from one that fails at year three is decided on prep day, before any resin gets mixed. Here is what we will not skip, regardless of project budget.

Calcium chloride moisture meter test on a residential slab

01. Calibrated moisture testing

Calcium chloride or relative-humidity sleeve test on every polyaspartic coatings substrate before we order resin. If the vapor emission rate is above manufacturer spec, we apply a moisture-mitigation primer at our cost rather than gamble on the topcoat bond. Skipping this is the most common cause of the failed coatings we get called in to re-prep.

Diamond-ground concrete substrate ready for resin

02. Diamond grind to spec

CSP-3 minimum for residential polyaspartic coatings, CSP-4 for high-build commercial. Shot blasting and acid etching are cheaper shortcuts that fail the resin manufacturer’s adhesion spec. We grind, HEPA-vacuum, polyurea-fill every visible crack, and re-grind. The prep day is the day the floor lives or fails.

Finished metallic epoxy floor with written job spec

03. Spec sheet with the resin maker named

Every polyaspartic coatings proposal we write names the resin manufacturer, the topcoat product, the substrate prep depth, the cure window, and the maintenance schedule. If a competitor’s proposal does not name these, you are buying on faith, not specs. Full liability and workers’ comp on every job.

Questions before the call.

What does polyaspartic coatings cost in Los Angeles?

Residential pricing for polyaspartic coatings in the Los Angeles market typically runs between the ranges quoted on our service pages, with the exact number determined by substrate condition, finish system, and square footage. Commercial pricing is always project-specific.

We write fixed-price proposals after the on-site walkthrough so there are no change orders mid-pour. Walkthrough is free, takes about 30 minutes, and you have the proposal in your inbox the next morning.

How long does polyaspartic coatings take to install?

A standard residential pour runs two to three working days from prep to final topcoat. Larger residential or commercial pours can run four to fifteen days depending on system spec, substrate condition, and square footage.

The polyaspartic topcoat makes the floor walkable in 24 hours after the final coat. Full vehicle traffic returns at 72 hours.

How long will my polyaspartic coatings last?

Properly installed resinous floor systems are not cosmetic. They are a chemical bond to the substrate. Residential floors are engineered for lifetime adhesion to the slab.

The polyaspartic topcoat can be refreshed at the 8-to-12-year mark on heavy-use residential floors. The base resin stays bonded. Commercial systems are spec’d to traffic and chemistry; typical lifespan is 10-25 years on the resin layer.

Can you match a specific color?

Yes. Metallic epoxy pigments mix to any color in the spectrum. We have poured deep teal, copper-on-bronze, matte slate, mother-of-pearl, ocean blue with charcoal veining, and just-black.

Flake systems come in pre-blended color packs and unlimited custom blends. Quartz comes in 14 standard colors plus custom mixes. Decorative concrete colors are added integrally during the pour or applied as a topical stain post-cure.

How does the install process actually work?

Every job follows the same four-stage workflow. Day one is walkthrough and moisture test. Day two is diamond grinding to a CSP-3 profile and crack repair. Day three is the pour, broadcast, and signature work. Day four is the polyaspartic topcoat. We do a final inspection with you on-site and hand you a written job spec before we leave.

What happens after the floor is poured?

We schedule a check-in call at the three-year mark to look at the floor and the topcoat. If the gloss layer needs a refresh, we schedule the work. The base resin is bonded to the substrate for the life of the floor.

Between then and now, the floor maintains with a damp mop. No waxing, no sealing, no annual service appointment. The system is engineered to live without us in your house.

What makes Concrete 2 Coatings different from other contractors?

Three things, honestly. One, the owner walks every job and is on every prep day. We are not a franchise. Two, we are licensed and trained across resinous coatings AND decorative concrete AND structural slabs. Most LA shops pick one trade. Three, surface prep is non-negotiable: diamond-grind to CSP-3, HEPA-vacuum, re-grind. Most cosmetic failures trace back to skipped prep.
