We’re looking to set a snowfall record in March

As we approach the end of march, we are looking at setting a new snowfall record here in the Twin Cities. As long as we don’t get any measurable snow, it will be the first March ever that we didn’t get any. I know for myself, this is a record I am excited to set. I can’t ever remember getting out and cleaning up the yard, cleaning out the garage and freshening up around the house this early. I’m sure you can say the same thing.

As you get out and look around, pay attention to your concrete sidewalks, garage floors and driveways. Have the salts and ice melts started to deteriorate your slabs? Do you have those nasty hard water stains from last years sprinklers? Take the time and think about the investment on what it will cost to replace your concrete.

Cleaning and sealing exterior concrete is a great way to protect this investment. Whether its brand new concrete or 50 years old, there is a sealer that is designed for your situation. As you already know, we take our experience and industry knowledge to provide you with the longest lasting solution for your situation. Lets not wait until fall to think about our concrete again because before you know it, we’ll set another record; earliest measurable snow ever recorded in Minnesota.

Polished Concrete in a cabin!

Concrete Treatments recently completed a kitchen floor in Northern Minnesota. As part of this new construction project, the owners had the focus of sustainability in mind and a polished floor did just that for them. Without the uses of secondary flooring solution, they were able to increase the light reflectivity of the room as well as having a floor that is easy to maintain. Now the owners will be able to enjoy their cabin without the constant upkeep of carpeting, tile or other flooring solutions.

The Most Natural Floor Since Dirt

The most natural floor since dirt: Polished Concrete. By process of mechanically grinding and polishing with industrial diamond tooling, we create a hard wearable surface free of surface wax and maintenance. Polished concrete will take a new or existing slab of concrete and turn it into a warm, and if desired, colorful environment. By mechanically grinding the surface, we are able to create an extremely smooth and flat surface with little maintenance and upkeep required. By same process we are able to polish terrazzo concrete as well as marble. In turn you will have a finished floor without ever having to wax and seal that surface. The outcome: reduced costs in maintenance and energy, esthetically pleasing look, reduction of carbon foot print on the environment with sustainability.

Concrete Treatments also provides other services in coatings, dyes and sealers, and also surface prep with coating, thin set, and carpet glue removal. Coatings services in epoxies, and urethanes gives you the ability to water proof a floor, with a seamless blanket of high friction finish. Exterior dyes and sealers gives you the capability to match two separate pours of unmatched exterior concrete.

With our equipment, we are capable of any sort of surface prep work including: removal of thin sets, carpet glues, VCT and sheet vinyl. As well as any fill in patch work, whether it’s small chips and cracks, or a complete tear out and replace of slabs. All being done with vacuum systems to create a dust free environment. Please feel free to call with any questions you may have. Services provided nationwide.
