Your Patio Problems, Actually Solved

Your concrete patio takes a beating in Arizona. The heat cracks it, the sun fades it, and every monsoon season brings new stains and damage. You’re tired of looking at that eyesore every time you step outside.

Here’s what changes when you get a proper patio coating. Your surface stays cooler underfoot, even when it’s 115 degrees outside. The coating reflects heat instead of absorbing it, so you can actually walk on it barefoot without hopping around like you’re on hot coals.

The waterproof barrier stops moisture from seeping in and causing more cracks. Your patio becomes something you’re proud to show off instead of something you try to hide with furniture and planters. And you stop spending weekends scrubbing stains that won’t come out because the smooth, sealed surface cleans with a simple hose-down.

Lexington Place Concrete Coating Experts

We Know Arizona Concrete

Iron Seal Coatings understands what Arizona weather does to concrete. We’ve been protecting patios, driveways, and outdoor surfaces throughout the Valley, including right here in Lexington Place.

Our team has seen every type of concrete damage this climate can dish out. Thermal expansion cracks from temperature swings, UV degradation that turns surfaces chalky and weak, and monsoon damage that leaves surfaces stained and pitted.

That’s why we use coating systems specifically designed for desert conditions. Not the cheap stuff that peels off after one summer, but industrial-grade epoxy and polyurethane systems that bond permanently to concrete and flex with temperature changes.

Outdoor Concrete Coating Process

Straightforward Process, Lasting Results

The process starts with proper surface preparation. We clean your concrete thoroughly and repair any existing cracks or damage. This step matters because coating over problems just hides them temporarily.

Next comes the primer application. This creates the chemical bond between your concrete and the coating system. We use primers specifically formulated for Arizona’s alkaline concrete and extreme temperature conditions.

The base coat goes on next, followed by color coats if you want something other than standard gray. We finish with a clear topcoat that provides UV protection and makes the surface easy to clean. The whole process typically takes 2-3 days, depending on your patio size and the coating system you choose.

You’ll need to stay off the surface for about 24 hours after completion, but after that, you’ve got a patio that’s ready for whatever Arizona throws at it.

What You Get With Every Job

Every patio coating project includes thorough surface preparation, crack repair, and professional application of the coating system. You’re not just getting a paint job – you’re getting a complete surface restoration.

The coating systems we use are specifically chosen for Arizona conditions. They resist UV damage, thermal shock, and moisture penetration. Most importantly, they stay flexible enough to move with your concrete as it expands and contracts with temperature changes.

You’ll also get slip-resistant texture options, which matter more than you might think. Arizona patios get wet from monsoons, pool splash-out, and morning dew. The right texture keeps your family safe without making the surface hard to clean.

Color options go beyond basic gray. You can choose from earth tones that complement desert landscaping, or go with something that matches your home’s exterior. The coating won’t fade like paint does because the color is protected by the clear topcoat.

How long does patio coating last in Arizona heat?

A properly applied patio epoxy coating should last 10-15 years in Arizona conditions, assuming you use the right coating system. The key is using UV-stable materials that won’t break down under constant sun exposure. Cheaper coatings might start peeling or chalking within 2-3 years, but quality epoxy and polyurethane systems are formulated to handle thermal cycling and UV exposure. The surface preparation also matters – if the concrete isn’t properly cleaned and primed, even the best coating won’t last. Most coating failures happen because of poor prep work, not because the coating itself failed.

Will the coating make my patio cooler to walk on?

Yes, but how much cooler depends on the color and type of coating you choose. Light-colored coatings with reflective properties can reduce surface temperatures by 10-20 degrees compared to bare concrete. That’s the difference between unbearable and uncomfortable on a 115-degree day. Dark colors will still be hot, but even they’ll be cooler than uncoated concrete because the smooth surface doesn’t absorb and hold heat the same way. If keeping the surface cool is your main concern, stick with lighter colors and ask about heat-reflective additives that can be mixed into the coating.

Can you coat over existing cracks in my concrete?

Small cracks can be repaired as part of the coating process, but larger structural cracks need different treatment. Hairline cracks and minor settling cracks get filled with flexible crack filler before coating. This prevents them from telegraphing through the new surface. However, if your patio has major structural issues or active movement cracks, coating won’t fix the underlying problem. The coating might look good initially, but the cracks will eventually come back through. We’ll assess your concrete condition and tell you honestly whether coating is the right solution or if you need more extensive repairs first.

How do I maintain a coated patio surface?

Maintenance is surprisingly simple – that’s one of the main benefits of coating. Regular cleaning with a hose and mild detergent keeps the surface looking good. For tougher stains, you can use a pressure washer on low setting. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that might damage the coating. The smooth, sealed surface means spills and dirt sit on top instead of soaking in, so most cleaning is just surface-level. You might want to reapply the topcoat every 5-7 years to maintain maximum protection, but that’s much easier and cheaper than recoating the entire surface.

What's the difference between patio paint and coating?

Paint sits on top of concrete and forms a film that can peel or chip off. Coating penetrates into the concrete pores and forms a chemical bond that becomes part of the surface. Paint might last 1-2 years before it starts peeling, especially in Arizona heat. Coating becomes a permanent part of your concrete and should last 10+ years. Paint is cheaper upfront but coating is more cost-effective long-term because you’re not repainting every few years. Coating also provides better protection against moisture, chemicals, and abrasion. If you want something that looks good and lasts, coating is worth the extra investment.

How long before I can use my patio after coating?

You can walk on most coatings after 24 hours, but full cure takes longer. Light foot traffic is usually fine after one day, but wait at least 72 hours before moving heavy furniture back or putting significant weight on the surface. The coating continues to harden for about a week, reaching maximum durability after 7 days. Arizona heat actually helps the curing process, so your coating might be ready sooner than in cooler climates. However, don’t rush it – letting the coating fully cure prevents premature wear and ensures you get the full lifespan from your investment.
