Installation Process
Our team at Phoenix Flooring Company has refined this process over two decades of service to Arizona homeowners.
1. Surface Preparation
Before any concrete is poured, we thoroughly prepare the installation area. This critical first step involves removing all existing flooring materials and debris. We inspect the subfloor for damage, moisture issues, or uneven areas that could affect the final result.
2. Concrete Mixing and Pouring
We mix concrete on-site to precise specifications based on your project's requirements. Our formula balances strength, workability, and aesthetic qualities to create the perfect mix for your space.
3. Floor Leveling and Smoothing
After pouring, we immediately begin the crucial leveling process. Our technicians use screeds and floats to create a perfectly level surface across the entire floor area.
4. Curing and Sealing
Proper curing is essential for concrete strength and durability. We carefully monitor the curing process, which typically takes 5-7 days. During this time, the concrete hardens and gains strength.
5. Finishing Touches
The final stage involves adding decorative elements and protective features to complete your concrete floor installation. This may include applying decorative saw cuts, stenciled patterns, or acid staining for unique visual effects.
Post-Installation Services
We offer comprehensive follow-up services to protect your investment and maintain your floor's quality for years to come.
Quality Assurance Walk-Through
Once your concrete floor installation is complete, we conduct a thorough quality assurance walk-through with you. Our project manager will inspect every detail of the finished floor to ensure it meets our high standards and your expectations.
We check for proper curing, finish consistency, and potential issues that might need immediate attention. During this inspection, we'll explain the characteristics of your new floor and answer any questions you have.
The walk-through also serves as an opportunity to provide personalized guidance on your specific floor type. We document all inspection points and provide you with a completion certificate that verifies the installation meets industry standards.
Warranty and Support
Your concrete floor investment is protected by our comprehensive warranty program. Phoenix Flooring Company offers a standard 2-year warranty on workmanship and installation quality for all concrete floor projects.
For premium installations, we offer extended warranty options up to 5 years with annual maintenance programs. Should any warranty-covered issues arise, our dedicated support team responds promptly to address your concerns.
We maintain detailed records of your installation specifications, making it easy to provide continued support even years after installation. Our team is always available by phone or email to answer maintenance questions or schedule service visits when needed.
Environmental Responsibility
Our commitment to protecting the environment shapes our material choices and installation practices without sacrificing quality or durability.
Eco-Friendly Materials
We source concrete mixes that contain recycled materials whenever possible. Our standard mixes often include:
- Fly ash (a byproduct from coal plants)
- Recycled concrete aggregate
- Slag cement (a byproduct from steel manufacturing)
These materials reduce waste in landfills and decrease the carbon footprint of your flooring project. We also offer low-VOC sealants and finishes that maintain excellent indoor air quality in your home or business.
For polished concrete floors, we use diamond grinding techniques that require no additional chemical treatments. This eliminates harmful substances while creating stunning, long-lasting surfaces.
Sustainable Practices
We implement energy-efficient installation methods that minimize resource use during your project. Our team carefully measures materials to reduce waste and recycles leftover concrete whenever possible.
Water conservation is built into our process through:
- Precision mixing to avoid excess water usage
- Recycling water used in concrete cutting and polishing
- Capturing runoff during installation
We use energy-efficient equipment and schedule work to maximize natural lighting, reducing electricity consumption during installation. Our team travels in fuel-efficient vehicles and plans routes to minimize transportation emissions.
Training is essential to our environmental approach. Every technician learns proper disposal methods for all materials, ensuring nothing harmful enters waterways or soil.
FAQs on Concrete Floor

How much does concrete floor installation cost?
Concrete floor installation typically costs $3-$12 per square foot for basic finishes, with decorative options reaching $15-$30 per square foot. Price factors include subfloor preparation, concrete thickness, reinforcement requirements, and finish complexity. Additional costs apply for removal of existing flooring, specialized drainage, or moisture barriers. Labor typically accounts for 40-60% of total project cost.
How long does concrete floor installation take?
Standard concrete floor installation requires 5-7 days from start to finish. This includes 1-2 days for preparation, 1 day for pouring, and 3-4 days for initial curing. Decorative finishes add 1-3 additional days. Full cure takes 28 days, though light foot traffic is possible after 24-48 hours. Temperature and humidity affect curing time significantly.
What are the maintenance requirements for concrete floors?
Concrete floors need regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping with pH-neutral cleaners. Resealing is required every 1-3 years for residential use and 6-12 months for commercial settings. Stains should be cleaned immediately to prevent absorption. Cracks should be addressed promptly to prevent expansion. Properly maintained concrete floors can last 50+ years without major renovation.
