Builder & Remodel Guidance

​Scoring and Staining (New Construction)

For interior new construction, please make sure that the slab is slick, hard, and power troweled. This allows us to achieve a marble-like and polished finish.

For exterior slip resistant new construction, please make sure that the concrete has a heavy rock salt finish.

Scoring and Staining (Existing / Remodel)

When you have a concrete slab that has had tile, carpet, vinyl, or linoleum, your concrete will most likely have stains and blemishes. When LDC Floors starts your remodel project, we will clean your floor with several different chemicals to remove as much of the glue, paint, and such. Please note that all of these stains will not come off. The remaining stains and blemishes give your floor its character and unique personality.

​Cautions

The slab is the finished floor.  It must be protected at all times. You

may use RamBoard or Xboard and then paper.

• Do NOT tape directly to the floor

• Do not write on slab except with a pencil.

• Do not walk on slab until it is dry.

• Do not drag anything across the floor.

​

Things that could stain the slab include red chalk, permanent marker, adhesives, flux, caulk, PVC primer/cleaner, PVC adhesive, food, grease, beverages, metal, nails/rust, lumber, saw dust, and boards.
