Request a Renewal Estimate

Concrete Renewal is not paint, a decorative coating or a topical sealer. It will not hide stains, repair cracks or make damaged concrete look new. It is designed to deeply clean suitable bare concrete and help reduce surface dusting.

The garage floor must be cleared before arrival. Junk removal and hauling are not included.

A Garage Should Not Feel Gross

Stop tracking concrete dust and grime into your home.

Bare concrete can shed dust, absorb spills and make your shoes feel dirty every time you walk through the garage. Whether you choose a full coating or Concrete Renewal, the goal is the same: a cleaner garage you feel better walking into.

Recent Project

Before and after, same garage.

Dusty, stained bare concrete replaced with a clean, sealed floor that wipes down in minutes. Prep and product selection are what make the difference.

The Coating Process

Four steps. No shortcuts.

01

Inspect and Prepare

We check the concrete for old coatings, sealers, contamination, cracks, weak surface material and signs of excess moisture. Grease and contamination are treated before grinding when needed.

02

Diamond Grind and Repair

The floor is mechanically diamond-ground to remove weak surface material and create the profile required for coating adhesion. Agreed cracks, pits and damaged areas are then prepared and repaired.

03

Coat and Broadcast

The base coat selected for the slab is installed, followed by a full broadcast of Simiron decorative chip while the coating is wet.

04

Scrape, Vacuum and Protect

Loose chip is removed, the floor is scraped and vacuumed, and a clear Simiron Polyaspartic HS topcoat is applied.

A separate moisture-mitigation product is used only when testing, slab conditions and product specifications call for it. More layers are not automatically better—the correct system matters.

Walking, storage and vehicle-return times depend on the installed system, temperature and job conditions. Each customer receives written cure instructions.

The System

Named products. Clear reasons.

Simiron Base Coat

A professional base coat selected according to the slab, installation conditions and system specifications.

Simiron Decorative Chip

Multicolor vinyl chip broadcast across the wet base coat to create the finished color, texture and visual depth.

Simiron Polyaspartic HS

A fast-drying, UV-stable clear topcoat designed for use over full decorative-chip systems.

Moisture testing and mitigation options are considered separately. A moisture-vapor barrier is not automatically installed on every floor.

Flake Blends

Choose the finish that fits your garage.

Actual physical samples are reviewed during the estimate. Colors shown on a screen may differ from the installed floor.

Local and Owner-Led

Built on preparation. Sold with straight answers.

Graves Concrete Coatings is an owner-led Dublin, Ohio company focused only on residential garages.

We offer premium decorative floor coatings and a practical Garage Clean & Concrete Renewal service for homeowners who are not ready for a full coating.

The company is being built around technical honesty: inspect the concrete, explain what we find, use professional products according to their specifications and never pretend a coating can repair structural concrete problems.

Owner

Paul Graves

Paul is a local real estate professional and the former owner of a Visiting Angels home health care agency, where every day was built on doing right by families.

He also spent years as a manager at Graves Piano & Organ Company, a central Ohio family business of 65 years. That standard for craftsmanship and straight answers is how he runs every garage floor project today.

The slab comes first

Concrete condition, contamination and moisture can change the correct recommendation.

Products are named

We explain what we intend to use and what each part of the system does.

Limits are explained

A coating is not structural repair, and Concrete Renewal is not a decorative coating.

What You Can Expect

Clear service from estimate to walkthrough.

A real inspection

We look at the concrete before recommending a system.

A written scope

You receive a clear description of the planned preparation, products and price.

Honest communication

If the concrete creates a concern or limits what can be promised, we tell you before work begins.

Maintenance

A damp mop is the whole routine.

A finished floor is sealed and non-porous. Dirt stays on top of the coating rather than working into the slab, so a few minutes of cleaning returns the floor to the way it looked on install day.

Damp mop, nothing more

A damp mop with warm water and a mild cleaner removes dust, salt and tire dirt. No waxing, no sealing, no annual re-coating.

Spills wipe up

The polyaspartic topcoat is non-porous, so oil, brake fluid and road salt sit on the surface instead of soaking into the concrete.

Sweep or blow out as needed

For loose debris, a broom or leaf blower is enough. A hose or pressure washer is fine when the floor needs a deeper rinse.

Durability & Maintenance

Built to last. Easy to keep that way.
