So here’s the latest update on the floor. It’s gone! Friday they ground out the floor, stem walls and all. I did all the prep I could - put poly on everything attached to the wall, covered any small hole, turned off the hvac system and HRV, all to limit any chemical dust travel. The smell...

Contractor B suggested we grind and wait a couple of days to see if it resolves the smell. This is something I certainly agree with doing. My intent is to move the family out for about a week and get the process done. Process being… 1). Day 1 - Grind out current floor 2). Wait 2-3 days to...

Update: I sent a rather lengthy and legal-sounding email to the contractor, and they have agreed on a full refund (since I did not want to go through them again for the re-do). I have since spoken to two new contractors about grinding the floor up and replacing with a new one. Looking for some...

Hello all. Sorry for the delay in my response… I tried to take a break and just live and little and hope that things got better over time. Alas, no further improvements in the odor, and if anything it has gotten worse as the weather has warmed up. My installer does not want to redo the floor -...

Thanks Bill, that’s comforting to know. I will go park a car in there tonight (briefly) after the highway home and see what happens.

so I will post a lengthy update shortly, however, a question for you… did it still have a mild odour even after airing it out for a week or two?

Thanks for the responses all. The grind and start over was discussed - they said they would do the main part of the floor but leave the stem walls alone. In your opinion, force them to grind the stem walls too?

Interestingly, I met with the supplier of the coating, and the company that did the install on site yesterday. They are saying the coating seems to be cured correctly, no additional solvents were added to thin it out, but it was applied thick (especially around the edges). They are still on the...

Hi All. This forum has been a great source of information over the last couple of weeks for our Polyaspartic Flooring experience, so I thought I would share what's going on and see if any of the members here have input on what I should be doing and how I should approach this. We just finished...
