Concrete slab preparation for coating
URETHANE MORTAR

Urethane mortar: the floor that shrugs off boiling water.

The thermal-shock-rated system for breweries, kitchens, and processing floors that get hot wash-down every single day.

The floor for heat, steam, and thermal shock

Standard epoxy is tough, but pour 180 degree wash-down water on it daily, or roll a steam cleaner over it, and thermal shock will find its edge. Urethane mortar (urethane cement) is the system built for that abuse.

WHY

Where Epoxy Taps Out

Repeated rapid temperature swings expand and contract a coating faster than the slab beneath it.

  • Hot wash-down zones and kettle lines
  • Walk-in freezers to hot kitchens through one door
  • Steam cleaning and boiling spills
WHAT

What Urethane Mortar Is

A cementitious urethane troweled on thick, moving with the slab through temperature swings.

  • Handles hot wash-down and thermal cycling
  • High impact and abrasion resistance
  • Tolerant of damp slabs that would blister epoxy
WHO

Who Runs It

This is the floor under most of the food and beverage industry for a reason.

  • Breweries, dairies, and processors
  • Commercial kitchens and dish pits
  • Loading docks with freezer traffic
Heavy-use commercial shop floor
HONEST SPEC

We will tell you when you do not need it.

Urethane mortar costs more than epoxy, and plenty of commercial floors do not need it. If your floor never sees hot wash-down or thermal cycling, Jack will say so and quote the epoxy system instead.

When you do need it - fryer lines, kettle rooms, dish pits, freezer thresholds - nothing else lasts, and we install it with the same integral cove base and phased scheduling as the rest of our commercial work.

Scope it with the owner, not a salesman.

Jack walks your facility personally, meters the slab, and writes an itemized proposal with a phased plan that works around your operation. Spec sheets, references, and proof of insurance come with it.
