I have had concrete flooring in past homes, and it has been amazingContemporary look and incredibly easy to maintainI have terrazzo in my current house, which Nu-Crete covered with a skim coatThe salesman said the skim coat would look and behave just like the concrete I had in the past, which has been far from the caseI asked if it would lift or crack, he said no, it started to crack within monthsIt scuffs easily and is impossible to get dirt offThe sealer absorbs water, so whenever the floor gets wet (and I have it in the bathroom) it turns black and takes days to dryAfter they applied the sealer, pores developed all over the skim coat (little visible holes)I have called repeatedly to complain and have asked them to come back and re-seal with a better sealerThe salesman came to view the job when I first complained and agreed it needed to be re-seledNow they keep putting me onto different sales peopleThey have re-quoted me to do the job again or go back down to the terrazzo, and have told me they will not sand off the current sealer and re-sealBeware if you use them, they will tell you what you want to hear to get the job
I have had concrete flooring in past homes, and it has been amazing. Contemporary look and incredibly easy to maintain. I have terrazzo in my current house, which Nu-Crete covered with a skim coat. The salesman said the skim coat would look and behave just like the concrete I had in the past, which has been far from the case. I asked if it would lift or crack, he said no, it started to crack within 3 months. It scuffs easily and is impossible to get dirt off. The sealer absorbs water, so whenever the floor gets wet (and I have it in the bathroom) it turns black and takes days to dry. After they applied the sealer, pores developed all over the skim coat (little visible holes). I have called repeatedly to complain and have asked them to come back and re-seal with a better sealer. The salesman came to view the job when I first complained and agreed it needed to be re-seled. Now they keep putting me onto different sales people. They have re-quoted me to do the job again or go back down to the terrazzo, and have told me they will not sand off the current sealer and re-seal. Beware if you use them, they will tell you what you want to hear to get the job.
