A property owner of a vacation rental home in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida wanted to create a beach vibe that flowed through the entire BoHo-themed cottage. This home is a spacious 3/2 with 1,200 sq. ft. of floors. And they wanted these floors to make a statement. What they wanted was a seamless floor that looked like beautiful white sand while being smooth. As they scoured the available options in tile, vinyl, and wood, it quickly became apparent they were not the solution.
The perfect solution presented itself with decorative concrete. Although decorative concrete flooring is not a new product, it is not always considered as it is not an option in most flooring outlets. Because of this, choosing the right company can be daunting. The first thing to realize is there are a lot of high-quality products from a variety of manufacturers that can be used. The key to decorative concrete is the craftsmanship of the installer.
Unique Concrete Designs (UCD) was chosen to create this beach-themed concrete floor as part of the VRBO cottage remodel. As in every floor, surface preparation is key to longevity and product performance. The team at UCD evaluated the floor, addressed all issues, and created the proper profile for the concrete overlay to bond to. They choose to utilize a high-strength, self-bonding overlay that they custom-tinted to the perfect sand color. Although the concrete overlay boasts a strength of over 4,000 PSI (over twice the strength of the original concrete). They protected the surface with a water-based urethane coating. Making it easy to clean, stain-resistant, allergen-free, and handle the wear and tear of non-stop renters.
As the photos clearly illustrate, the floor has turned out astonishingly well. Should you be contemplating a new floor for your vacation rental, we highly recommend opting for decorative concrete. With concrete overlays, you can achieve any desired texture or design, be it wood, stone, tile, or even a sand finish.
