The Covercrete Resurfacing Process
Achieving a quality Covercrete finish begins with proper surface preparation and the selection of a suitable resurfacing system. Each stage plays an important role in creating a consistent, decorative surface designed for the intended application.
01
Surface Assessment
The existing concrete is assessed for cracks, damage, previous coatings and surface conditions that may affect the resurfacing process. This helps determine the appropriate preparation and treatment requirements.
02
Concrete Preparation
The concrete is cleaned and mechanically prepared where required to remove unsuitable surface materials and create a suitable foundation for the new coating. Cracks and surface imperfections may also require treatment before application.
03
Decorative Coating Application
The selected Covercrete resurfacing system is applied in the required stages to achieve the chosen colour, texture or decorative pattern. Application methods vary depending on the finish and product specifications.
04
Sealing & Final Finish
Where required, a compatible protective sealer is applied to complete the resurfacing system. The finished surface is inspected and allowed to cure according to the product requirements before being returned to use.
Covercrete Care & Maintenance
The selected Covercrete resurfacing system is applied in the required stages to achieve the chosen colour, texture or decorative pattern. Application methods vary depending on the finish and product specifications.
01
Regular Cleaning
Remove leaves, dirt and loose debris regularly. Wash the surface using suitable cleaning products and methods recommended for the specific coating system.
02
Manage Spills Promptly
Clean spills as soon as practical to help minimise staining. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the decorative finish.
02
Prevent Surface Damage
Avoid dragging heavy furniture, sharp objects or equipment across the coating. Use suitable protective measures where necessary.
03
Periodic Inspection & Resealing
Check the surface for signs of wear, coating damage or deterioration. Depending on the system and exposure conditions, periodic resealing may be recommended.
Important Information & Disclaimer
Covercrete resurfacing is subject to the condition and suitability of the existing concrete substrate. Surface preparation, repairs, coating systems, colours, textures and finishes may vary depending on the individual project and intended application.
Images displayed on this page are for illustrative purposes only and may not represent completed Heat Shield Group projects. Actual colours, patterns, textures and finishes may differ from those shown.
The durability, appearance and performance of a finished surface depend on factors including substrate condition, environmental exposure, traffic, maintenance and the selected coating system. Not all existing concrete surfaces are suitable for resurfacing, and results cannot be guaranteed to be identical across all applications.
Heat Shield Group recommends an assessment of the existing surface before confirming the appropriate resurfacing solution.
