Every floor on this page is ours.

Metallic pours, flake garages, quartz floors and resurfaced countertops, all photographed on the job. If you want to see more, the Facebook page gets a new floor most weeks.

What to look at in a floor photo.

Look at the edges first. Where the floor meets the wall is where sloppy work shows up, because it is fiddly and nobody photographs it on purpose. A good floor has a clean, deliberate line there, and usually a coved or wrapped edge rather than a ragged stop.

Then look at the reflection. A properly topcoated floor reflects the room like water. If the reflection is patchy or the gloss changes across the bay, the topcoat went on unevenly. On a metallic floor, look for balance: color spread across the whole surface rather than one dramatic corner and three feet of muddy gray.

The before shots are worth as much as the afters. Most of these slabs were stained, dusting, or carrying a failed coating when we got there, and that is the normal starting condition. A floor that looks good over bad concrete is the whole trick.
