Hard Concrete Underfoot?
The comparison between a concrete floor and other flooring types shows very small differences regarding comfort in kitchens. Although known as comfortable, you are certainly not adding carpet in a kitchen! Vinyl may seem a little more forgiving, but the contrast is ultimately minimal, and endurance is a challenge. Cork is one of the perfect surfaces for comfort but has considerable problems with cleanliness. Epoxy coatings can be produced with a feel of give by using unique types of polyurethane and varying the height of the material. If you use rubber matting in your kitchen anyway, the choice of coating ideally should be determined by other factors.
Is Coated Concrete Simple to Maintain?
A high-end color stained or epoxied concrete base features a polyurethane sealer that is essentially just as strong as the sealants we use on garage floors and service areas with heavy traffic. Carts won’t scrape it. Liquids cannot stain it. Falling utensils will not leave a dent. When it comes to resilience, longevity, and ease of maintenance, coated concrete ordinarily comes out on top.
Isn’t Epoxy Too Slippery for Kitchens?
Many people believe epoxy flooring is extremely slippery when wet. A high gloss epoxy floor definitely has that characteristic, but that kind of floor is for retail stores and showrooms, not for kitchens. Instead, your kitchen must have an epoxy floor that enhances safety with a no-slip finish, so that you and your staff can maintain a safe grip even if there is an inadvertent spill. And with coved flooring, you do not have to worry about a spill causing damage by slipping under the wall.
