This Seattle homeowner upgraded their interior walkway with a sleek medium grey Penntek polyurea coating, creating a stunning, slip-resistant surface that stands up to Pacific Northwest weather.
When this Seattle homeowner evaluated their interior walkway, they recognized an opportunity to elevate their home's aesthetic while addressing practical concerns. The existing concrete surface was functional but uninspiring, and they wanted a solution that would complement their modern design while providing superior durability. They chose Cascade Concrete Coatings to install a professional concrete coating that would deliver both beauty and performance for decades to come.
For walkways that experience regular foot traffic, polyurea coating offers distinct advantages over traditional epoxy systems. This homeowner selected a sophisticated medium grey finish that provides visual continuity with their interior design while offering practical benefits. The superior flexibility of Penntek polyurea means the coating moves with the concrete as it expands and contracts with temperature changes—critical in Seattle where our climate creates constant thermal cycling. Unlike rigid epoxy that can crack or chip, this polyurea system maintains its integrity and appearance through years of use.
Our certified installation team completed this walkway transformation in a single day using our proven Penntek process. We began with comprehensive surface preparation, diamond-grinding the concrete to achieve optimal adhesion and testing moisture levels to ensure the substrate was ready for coating. After meticulously repairing any surface imperfections, we applied the pure polyurea basecoat followed by the polyaspartic topcoat featuring Penntek's FadeLock technology. This certified Penntek system creates a chemical bond with the concrete that's far stronger than epoxy's mechanical bond, and it comes backed by a lifetime manufacturer warranty.
The finished walkway delivers both aesthetic appeal and practical functionality. The slip-resistant surface provides secure footing, while the non-porous topcoat resists stains and cleans effortlessly—important for high-traffic areas. The medium grey color choice creates a clean, contemporary look that won't show every speck of dirt, and the subtle decorative flake adds texture and visual interest. For Seattle homeowners, a professionally coated walkway eliminates the dusty, porous nature of bare concrete while creating a cohesive design element that enhances the entire space.
