Are Your Walkways Winter Ready?

PaintingCompanyAlbuquerque • October 15, 2022

As winter draws near, it is important to ensure your walkways are prepared for the drop in temperature and change in weather conditions. Ice and snow can cause damage to concrete floors, creating cracks that can be costly to repair. A concrete floor coating can help to protect your walkways from damage, prolonging their lifespan and saving you money. At Mike’s Quality Painting in Albuquerque, we offer Penntek concrete floor coating to homes and businesses across the region. We discuss the benefits of investing in a concrete coating for the walkways and driveways of your property.

Concrete Coatings for Minimized Damage

During the winter months, it’s not uncommon for gritting salt to be spread onto our walkways. While this is   great for preventing slips and falls, the salt used to grit concrete can lead to cracks and other structural problems, leaving your walkway susceptible to further damage. A concrete coating provides a protective layer between the surface of the concrete and the salt, minimizing the chance of cracks forming as a result.

Concrete Coatings to Improve Aesthetics

We want our driveways and walkways to look their best, but during the winter months, the salt, snow, and sleet can leave concrete looking gloomy and dull. Luckily, a concrete coating keeps you from having to stand outside washing your walkways in the cold. The specially formulated coating protects concrete from becoming dull and improves the overall aesthetic of your property. We also carry a variety of concrete coating colors that you can choose from.

Concrete Coatings to Prevent Water and Ice Damage

While water may not typically present a problem to concrete floors, the drop in temperature that accompanies the winter months may lead water to expand, causing cracks and structural damage. Penntek concrete coating creates a water-resistant barrier on the concrete’s surface that can protect it from costly damage.
