Where each walk sits in the schedule
- Resinous flooring rough-in inspection checklistrough-in
- After the slab is prepped and before the first coat, once because the substrate condition disappears under the system the moment coating starts. Run by: The flooring applicator's lead checking the slab, with the GC's superintendent releasing each area before the primer coat goes down.
- Resinous flooring final inspection checklistfinal
- After the full system is applied and cured, before equipment and traffic return to the area and before the owner's walk. Run by: The flooring applicator with the GC's superintendent, walking the finished floor before turnover.
- Resinous flooring punch checklistpunch
- During closeout, after traffic and cleaning reveal weak bond and pinholes the initial walk missed. Run by: The flooring applicator on a callback, or the GC's superintendent closing floor punch items.
What most often sends resinous flooring work back
- Coating applied over a slab that never had a moisture or RH test, so vapor drive blisters the system weeks later.
- Concrete profiled too smooth for the specified system, giving the primer nothing to key into.
- Cracks and control joints coated straight over instead of chased and filled, so they telegraph and reopen through the finish.
- Thickness assumed from the datasheet while the actual material consumed over the area comes up short of the specified build.
- Integral cove base run thin or with a rounded top edge that peels away from the wall at the termination.
- Slip-resistant broadcast skipped or under-applied in a wet area so the finished floor is slick where it needs grip.
- A delaminated patch topcoated over without cutting back to sound, bonded film, so it lifts again at the same edge.
- Pinholes cosmetically filled on the surface while the outgassing that caused them is never addressed, so they reappear.
