EXCELSIOR’S HISTORIC RESTORATION EXPERTS
Since 1999, ConcreteRenewal has been built on a simple promise: if I sell you the floor, I am the one installing it.
🛠️ Bespoke Quality for the Lake Life
I bring 27 years of owner-operated experience to every Excelsior project. In a community that cherishes its historic charm and lakeside lifestyle, I refuse to delegate your home's value to a rotating crew of hourly employees. Working alongside my son-in-law, Nick, we personally handle every square inch of your installation. This "owner-on-site" approach ensures a level of craftsmanship and technical durability that national franchise fleets simply cannot replicate.
The Poly-Quartz™ Difference | Excelsior, MN
In Excelsior, a garage is often a century-old space needing modern protection. Whether you are restoring a historic carriage house near Water Street or protecting a newer build overlooking Excelsior Bay, the proximity to the lake creates intense vapor pressure that destroys standard "one-day" floors.
💧 Defeating "Lakeside Vapor Drive"
Excelsior’s high water table means moisture is constantly pushing up through your garage slab. "Speed-installers" use thin polyurea primers that "skim" the surface and eventually bubble. Our Poly-Quartz™ system is engineered for moisture mitigation:
- Deep-Penetrating Foundation: We use LABPOX 30, a 100% solids industrial epoxy. Its slower curing time allows it to "wet" the concrete and dive deep into the pores, creating a mechanical anchor that resists hydrostatic pressure.
- Crack & Pitting Restoration: Older Excelsior slabs often suffer from decades of salt damage. Our high-build system fills these imperfections, restoring your floor to a smooth, impermeable showroom finish.
🔬 Science Over Speed: The Professional 2-Day Bond
To maximize profit, many contractors race to finish in 24 hours. They use materials that cure too fast to achieve a permanent chemical bond. We refuse to take those shortcuts.
- 100+ Mil "Suit of Armor": While competitors install floors as thin as a business card (10-15 mils), our Poly-Quartz™ system is nearly 10x thicker—providing a massive mineral barrier for your concrete.
- Mineral Hardness (Mohs 7.0): We use rigid quartz aggregate. Standard vinyl flakes used by others are soft plastic (Mohs 3.0) that scuff and lose their aesthetic depth under heavy use.
🌪️ Patent-Pending DeCe™ Technology
Failure in Minnesota coatings usually stems from "Bond Breakers"—fine dust and chemical residue trapped in the concrete pores. Our proprietary DeCe™ Technology uses sonic velocity air jets to blast trapped silt out of the slab before HEPA-vacuuming.
⚓ Superior Safety for the "Commons" Area
Lakeside humidity and tracked-in snow turn standard floors into dangerous "skating rinks" instantly. We solve the "Slip Trap":
- High-Traction Engineering: Because quartz is a rigid 3D mineral, it maintains a superior Wet DCOF of 0.75 – 0.85. You get consistent, sandpaper-like grip even in standing water.
- Thermal Flexibility: Our topcoat features 150% elongation to handle Excelsior’s extreme freeze-thaw cycles without cracking or delaminating.
- UV Stability: Our finish will never yellow or "amber" in the sun, maintaining its beauty for decades.
The ConcreteRenewal Value
I don't have the overhead of national franchises or high-priced sales commissions. This efficiency allows me to price our industrial-grade Poly-Quartz™ systems similarly to the thin "one-day" flake floors sold by others in the West Metro. You receive a measurably stronger, safer floor for the same investment.

📍 Local Service Spotlight: Excelsior, MN
Serving Water Street, The Commons, Excelsior Bay, and the Hwy 7 Corridor (55331)
At ConcreteRenewal, we understand that Excelsior homes face unique environmental challenges. Whether your garage is located near The Commons Park, tucked into the historic district near Water Street, or an established property overlooking Gideon’s Bay, your slab requires a salt-proof, high-traction solution. Standard "one-day" floors often peel here because they cannot handle the high vapor drive from the lake. That’s why we utilize our DeCe™ Technology to dislodge deep-seated silt before applying our industrial-grade Poly-Quartz system. Greg and Nick personally handle every installation to ensure your floor remains durable, slip-resistant, and beautiful.

Excelsior Homeowner FAQs
Excelsior’s high water table creates significant vapor pressure under concrete slabs. Standard floors often bubble and peel because they don't bond deep enough. Our Poly-Quartz system uses industrial LABPOX 30 epoxy, which penetrates deep into the concrete pores to create a mechanical anchor that resists hydrostatic pressure and prevents delamination.
Yes. We specialize in historic restoration. Whether it's a century-old carriage house near Water Street or an established estate on Excelsior Bay, we use industrial diamond grinding and high-strength fillers to repair decades of salt pitting and cracks before applying our 100-mil thick mineral armor.
Absolutely. Safety is a priority for lakefront living. While standard flake floors become dangerous "slip traps" when wet (0.40 DCOF), our Poly-Quartz system maintains a superior Wet DCOF of 0.75 – 0.85. This exceeds safety standards, providing high-traction grip even with tracked-in snow, ice, or lake humidity.
