Green

Your concrete is made of rock - it’s basically just a big flat-formed rock! We can make that rock of yours shiny. We do that mechanically with really cool equipment that grinds it, hones it, and polishes it. We use progressively different grit levels of diamond impregnated tooling and pads. AND we do that all without environmentally hazardous materials!

Coverage

Each of RPM’s 4 divisions covers a specific territory. This coverage may overlap in some cases in high population areas. RPM covers 98% of the US population. We can handle your projects no matter where they are located!

Most RPM | DPC’s cover expanded territories where their reach if multi-state and is more overlapping with other local and regional DPC’s.

Services

Sealed Concrete

Concrete sealers protect the concrete surface from damage, corrosion, and staining. They either block the pores in the concrete to reduce absorption of water and salts or form an impermeable layer, which prevents such materials from passing.

Polished Concrete

Concrete that has been mechanically processed using progressively finer diamond impregnated tooling and pads, which then is treated with a densifier material during the process. Dyes are often applied to enhance the appearance of polished concrete as well as other features such as scoring, creating radial lines, grids, bands, borders, logos, and other designs.

Stained Concrete

Stained concrete is a time tested proven beautification process for concrete surfaces. Acid stain is not a paint or coating agent, rather it’s a coloring process involving a chemical reaction on a cementitious material. A solution made with water, acid, and inorganic salts reacts with minerals already present in the concrete, and the result of this reaction is color.

Epoxy Coatings

Epoxy coating is a flooring surface that is made up of multiple layers of epoxy that is applied to the floor to a depth of at least two millimeters. An epoxy floor must be at least two millimeters thick otherwise it is simply an epoxy floor coating. Epoxy in this case refers to a system that is made up of two main components – resins and hardeners. Resins and hardeners are mixed together where they chemically react to form a rigid plastic material that is strong, resistant to degradation, and bonds extremely well to its substrate.

Overlayment

Overlayment is a thin cementitious topping material that adheres to the existing concrete providing a new surface. Unlike conventional cement and concrete mixes, cementitious overlays can be applied as thin as 3/8” or as thick as 2” with 24 hour cures and a very low risk of delamination. The products are ready for traffic or polishing faster than any other repair option.

Surface Prep

Surface Preparation is an extremely important part of any decorative concrete solution. Whether it is removing existing coatings or other impurities, or if it's for the purpose of leveling and/ or profiling the substrate to apply other materials such as epoxy coatings or overlayment, surface prep done correctly ensure proper bonding to your concrete substrate.
