Patio Floor Coating Services

From a Cracked Slab to a Backyard Centerpiece

Your concrete surface stops being a source of frustration and becomes an inviting part of your home. You will no longer have to make excuses for cracks or keep guests away from the backyard.

The coating creates a surface that is remarkably easy to maintain. Oil stains wipe away instead of soaking in permanently. Water beads off instead of seeping through and causing more damage underneath.

You gain a slip-resistant texture—vital during monsoon season—plus powerful UV protection that stops colors from bleaching under the intense Arizona sun. Best of all, you get 10–15 years of performance instead of watching your concrete degrade more each summer.

Cypress Estates Concrete Coating

A Coating System Built for the Arizona Climate

As a community in the Sonoran Desert, Cypress Estates faces distinct environmental challenges. We have spent years working on outdoor concrete surfaces throughout Arizona, giving us a deep familiarity with how the climate affects them—from heat-induced expansion and cracking to the way monsoon moisture gets trapped and creates bigger issues. Your home is a significant investment; you need a solution that works.

You will not get a short-term fix that fails in two years. You get industrial-strength epoxy and polyurea coatings developed specifically for these extreme weather conditions.

The key to longevity is proper surface preparation, which is why your coating will adhere and last instead of peeling up when temperatures climb to 115 degrees.

Patio Epoxy Coating Process

Our Method for a Lasting Patio Surface

First, your concrete’s condition is assessed to identify any foundational issues that require attention. We fill cracks, treat oil stains, and mechanically etch the entire surface to create a strong profile for adhesion.

Next is the critical surface preparation—the step that dictates if your coating lasts two years or up to twenty. Your concrete’s specific needs will determine if we use diamond grinding, shot blasting, or another method.

Then, the base coat is applied, followed by your chosen color coats. Finally, the system is sealed with a topcoat that offers UV protection, slip resistance, and a low-maintenance finish. The entire application takes 2–3 days, and you can walk on your new patio within 24 hours of completion.

Outdoor Concrete Coating Options

Your Complete Patio Coating System

Your project includes full surface preparation, crack repair, and the application of an industrial-strength coating system. You get the meticulous prep work that determines if your coating bonds properly to the concrete or starts to peel within a year.

The coating system itself consists of a primer, a colored base coat, and a protective topcoat created for Arizona’s high UV exposure and dramatic temperature swings. You have the choice of standard colors or you can select decorative options with colored flakes or metallic finishes.

Every project concludes with a full cleanup and a walkthrough to review the simple maintenance steps. You receive a clear explanation of the coating’s capabilities and limitations—no exaggerated claims, just honest information about the value you receive for your investment.

How long does patio coating last in Arizona heat?

A multi-layer coating system from us lasts 10–15 years in the Arizona climate with correct upkeep. The longevity comes from using UV-stable topcoats and intensive surface preparation. Lower-cost coatings or rushed prep work might only survive 2–3 years before failing. We use industrial-strength materials formulated for extreme weather, not a simple concrete paint unsuited for this environment. Routine cleaning and avoiding abrasive chemicals will extend its life, but the coating itself is built to manage temperature shifts from below freezing to above 120 degrees without compromise.

Can you coat over existing cracks in my patio?

Yes, but existing cracks must be repaired first. Minor hairline cracks are filled and sealed during surface preparation. Larger, structural cracks require more reinforcement to stop them from showing through the new coating. We inspect each crack individually—some point to foundational issues that must be fixed before a coating is applied. If your concrete has extensive damage or is still settling, a coating may not be the most effective solution. We will tell you directly if repair and coating will provide a long-term benefit or if replacement is a more practical use of your funds.

What's the difference between patio coating and concrete paint?

Think of concrete paint as a temporary layer that sits on the surface, often peeling or fading within 1-2 years. A patio coating is a multi-layer system that fuses directly with prepared concrete, forming a durable, protective shield. A true coating system includes a primer for adhesion, a colored base coat, and a protective topcoat. Paint merely covers the concrete and fails when moisture gets beneath it. A coating becomes one with the concrete, creating a surface that withstands foot traffic, weather, and cleaning without quickly breaking down. The price difference reflects the quality of materials and the expected service life—a coating costs more initially but lasts 5 to 10 times longer than paint.

How much does patio coating cost compared to replacement?

A new coating typically costs 60–80% less than tearing out and replacing your entire patio. Pricing depends on your patio’s square footage, current condition, and your choice of decorative finishes. A standard coating application may fall in the $3–$6 per square foot range, whereas full replacement can cost $8–$15 per square foot after demolition and removal. However, a coating is only viable if your concrete slab is stable. Concrete with widespread damage might require repairs that make replacement a more economical option. We provide a simple evaluation of if a coating makes financial sense for you.

Will the coating make my patio slippery when wet?

A coating with the correct texture material will improve footing compared to slick, untreated concrete. We mix slip-resistant granules into the topcoat that create a textured finish without making the surface difficult to clean. The level of texture can be adjusted for your needs—more texture supplies greater slip resistance but requires more effort to clean. Most of our clients opt for a medium texture that offers reliable footing during monsoon season while allowing for simple upkeep. A completely smooth coating can be slippery when wet, which is why we discuss your traction needs and add the right additives for your patio.

How soon can I use my patio after coating?

You can walk on your new patio surface in 24 hours, though a complete chemical cure takes 3–7 days, depending on the surrounding temperature and humidity. Foot traffic is acceptable after the first day, but you should avoid dragging furniture or setting down heavy items until the cure is finished. Arizona’s high heat can accelerate curing, but we still advise waiting the full period before the patio sees heavy activity. We plan our work to reduce the inconvenience to you—most patios are ready for regular enjoyment within a week of the project start. We watch weather forecasts and adjust our schedule to allow the coating the time it needs to attain maximum hardness.
