If your new home on the Prairie in Post Falls has a bare, unfinished basement, the empty room is the easiest time to coat the floor, before you frame walls or haul furniture down there. One day of work seals the gray slab.
Post Falls is growing fast, and builders leave basements as raw concrete. Coating the slab before the rest of the buildout is the cheapest order of operations you will ever get.
An unfinished basement is the easiest coating job there is: no furniture to move, no baseboard to tape, clean access for the grinders. If your Riverbend build just closed, that window is open right now. Coat it empty and every project after it starts on a finished, dust-free floor.
Fresh slabs still need real prep. We diamond-grind the surface, fill cracks and control joints with polyurea, lay the polyurea base coat, broadcast flake or silica to full refusal, and lock it with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat. That stack is more abrasion-resistant than the epoxy kits new homeowners get pitched.
The same freeze-thaw that heaves driveways off Seltice Way works on basement slabs from the ground side. This system stays flexible through the cycles instead of going brittle, and it shrugs off the deicer and road salt that gets tracked downstairs on boots all winter.
We are minutes from Post Falls, with the shop just up the road in Coeur d'Alene and crews running between CdA and the Washington line every week. That proximity means quick scheduling and no trip charge. Whether it is a brand-new build near the Spokane River or an older place with a slab that has been shedding dust since the nineties, the fix is the same system and the same one-day install.
Every job starts with a free on-site measure, where we check the slab before we coat. You get a fixed written price, you pick from our full flake and silica lineup with samples sitting on your actual concrete, and our in-house crew does the install. Walk on it in about 8 hours. Residential and commercial floors carry the same lifetime warranty.

The same process on every slab we touch, whether it is next door or across town.
We check the slab at your free estimate before we coat, then diamond-grind and fill cracks and joints with polyurea so the system bonds to clean, open concrete.
A polyurea base coat, then your flake or silica blend broadcast to full refusal. Light blends do serious work in a basement.
The polyaspartic topcoat seals it. Walk on it in about 8 hours, so the basement is out of commission for about a day, not a week.
Before, every time. An empty slab means faster prep, no cut-ins around framing, and zero risk to drywall or trim. Finish carpentry can happen right on top of the cured floor. If the basement is already finished, we still do it; we just tape and protect what is in place.
New concrete needs to finish curing before any coating goes down. We check the slab at the free estimate and tell you when it is ready. If your Post Falls build closed months ago, the concrete is almost certainly good to go, and we can usually confirm on the spot.
Square footage and slab condition set the number, so we measure in person for free and put the price in writing. That figure is fixed: no surprise charges when the crew shows up. We serve all of Post Falls out to Hauser with no trip charge. Call 208-500-1043 to set up the measure.
Yes. The coating is more abrasion-resistant than epoxy and takes equipment feet, rolling casters, and dropped dumbbells far better than bare or painted concrete. Put horse-stall mats under your heavy drop zone and the floor will outlast the rack.
It helps a lot. That smell is usually damp air meeting raw, porous concrete and whatever is stacked on it. Sealing the slab removes the porous surface, and skipping carpet removes the sponge. We check the slab at the free estimate before we coat.

“Karl and his team did a beautiful job on my garage floor. They fixed a crack, sanded the floor. It looks amazing now. They also fixed a crack in my pad outside the garage. I had the pad coated using sealer, sand, and a Sherman Williams tint. My pad looks so nice. They are a hard working, professional team who pay attention to details. The end products were well done. I am very happy with their work.”
“Dustin and his team did a fantastic job on our floor. They started at 8am and didn't finish until 10pm that night. Went above and beyond to ensure the final product exceeded our expectations. One point that specifically stood out, was the clear communication from everyone with Rhino, on the process throughout the day. The entire team clearly has been through extensive customer service training. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to my family and friends.”
