  • Preserving the Polish: Essential Maintenance for Your New Concrete and Epoxy Floors
    2025/07/14

    How Should I Maintain My New Concrete Or Epoxy Floors?

    Wondering how to maintain that showroom shine on your newly installed concrete or epoxy floors? The answer might be simpler than you think.

    In this practical, advice-packed episode, Ed Rivas reveals the surprisingly straightforward maintenance secrets that will keep your surfaces looking flawless for decades. For newly poured concrete in hot climates, Ed explains the critical "homework" most homeowners miss: watering the concrete 3-5 times daily during the first 8-10 days. This simple step prevents the differential drying that leads to those frustrating hairline cracks by ensuring even moisture distribution throughout the curing process.

    When it comes to epoxy floors, Ed debunks the myth that special cleaners are necessary. After allowing 48 hours for full curing, maintenance becomes remarkably simple – just water and a soft brush is typically all you need. He cautions against power washing (even though the surfaces are highly durable) and explains why ammonia-based cleaners should be avoided. For those concerned about humidity and moisture issues, Ed shares professional insights about vapor barriers and explains why new concrete must cure for at least 28 days before epoxy application.

    The beauty of professional concrete and epoxy work lies not just in its immediate visual impact but in its lasting durability with minimal maintenance requirements. That's why Ed confidently offers a 20-year warranty on his garage floors. Whether you're installing new concrete, considering an epoxy coating, or simply want to protect your investment, this episode delivers practical, no-nonsense advice from a seasoned professional with decades of experience.

  • Commercial Concrete: How CSI Transforms Business Spaces
    2025/07/14

    What Kinds Of Commercial Projects Does CSI Handle?

    When concrete cracks in a commercial setting, it's not just unsightly—it's a liability. In this revealing conversation, Ed Rivas, founder of Concrete and Epoxy by CSI, takes us beyond residential driveways into the world of commercial concrete applications that keep North Dallas businesses standing strong and looking sharp.

    Ed pulls back the curtain on the specialized work his teams perform for restaurants, sport venues, and apartment complexes across the metroplex. From repairing dangerous trip hazards in parking lots to installing specialized epoxy flooring in commercial kitchens, CSI's work combines practical safety solutions with aesthetic appeal. "The material gets so tight that you don't get any residual of food or anything on it," Ed explains about restaurant kitchen installations, highlighting why proper materials make all the difference in commercial settings.

    Perhaps most surprising is Ed's revelation that quality work follows the same fundamental principles regardless of setting: "One of the things that we pride off is that we do things the right way, and if you're going to do it the right way, you're going to do it in residential or commercial." With specialized teams for concrete, decorative concrete, and epoxy, CSI brings craftsmanship to projects of all sizes—including a stunning 10,000 square foot indoor golf venue in Frisco that ranks among Ed's favorites. Whether you're managing a restaurant looking for easy-to-clean surfaces or an apartment complex needing critical safety repairs, discover why North Dallas businesses trust CSI when concrete matters.

    Want your commercial space to shine without cracking under pressure? Call Ed at 972-292-8057 for a consultation or visit csiusnet to learn how proper concrete work builds business confidence.

    Can I Finance My Concrete Or Epoxy Project?

    Money shouldn't stand between you and the concrete surfaces you deserve. That's why Ed Rivas, founder of Concrete & Epoxy by CSI, breaks down everything you need to know about financing your next concrete project in this eye-opening episode.

    Discover how accessible concrete financing has become, with options available for nearly every credit situation. Ed walks through their seamless application process that won't harm your credit score and can offer rates as low as 0% interest.

    The conversation reveals powerful insights about third-party financing programs that can fund up to $50,000, with money going directly to you rather than the contractor. This flexibility allows you to manage multiple home improvement projects simultaneously, not just concrete work. Ed emphasizes that most applicants get approved regardless of having perfect credit, making quality concrete repairs and upgrades accessible to more homeowners than ever before.

    Ready to transform your concrete surfaces without the financial stress?
