About this Service
At Dobbins Air Reserve Base facilities, self-leveling concrete overlay provides a controlled method to level hangar floors, maintenance bays and storage areas before protective coatings or epoxy systems are applied. The service suits industrial and military facility floors where durable, flat substrates are required for equipment and vehicular traffic.
Work begins with specification-led surface prep: diamond grinding, degreasing, and engineered crack repair. Overlay products are selected for industrial wear and moisture conditions, with typical pour profiles from about 1/8" to 1" per pass. Estimates list overlay product, pour thickness, coverage per bag, and explicit cure and walk-on times. Given clay-heavy soils and potential moisture issues around the base, quotes include moisture screening and primer or mitigation recommendations when necessary. Projects are planned to align with maintenance windows and base access protocols.
Practical limitations: overlays correct surface-level flatness and minor defects but do not substitute for structural slab remediation or for isolation of actively moving joints. Handover includes flatness verification and written cure documentation to confirm readiness for the specified industrial coating or floor system.
