About us

Wet floors can be very slippery resulting in slips and falls that can cause serious injury or even death. Wet Surface Technologies reduces the likelihood of slips and falls with two distinct treatment procedures depending on the type of flooring. Our first treatment is a liquid modifier which reacts with the minerals in stone based floors such as ceramic, terrazzo, porcelain, marble and concrete to put down a microscopic thread that you cannot see or feel. This is not a coating. When your surface is wet it meets ADA Guidelines for Static Co-efficiency of Friction which is the standard for determining safer floors when wet. This service comes with a two year warranty. Our second treatment is a clear coating with a polycarbonate "grit" that is applied over surfaces such as metal, wood, fiberglass and vinyl or almost any surface. This treatment comes with a one year warranty. After your treatment is complete, we return in six months for a "check up" to insure that our service is performing up to expectations. All treatments are applied by our trained staff.

Frank made an appointment to come over and do a test application to the driveway and sidewalk areas where we had new concrete that was painted. Although this concrete was painted it contained the polymer called sure-grip. The area of the new concrete was still very slippery. I had broken my ankle by slipping on the driveway in a rainstorm on the 4 NOV. Franks also said the test was a no cost or obligation to me and he would like to show us what the product could do and find out just what exactly was the problem. The results were very impressive even with water on the surface of the treated area. Our next step was to make an appointment to have the trouble area treated. The weather needed to cooperate and by 9 DEC we had a good couple of days in which the treatment could be applied. Frank and his business partner came and prepped the driveway with a degreaser type soap and then let things dry . After that the chemical was put down that would increase the surface tension on the driveway. While the first coat was drying, Frank came in and applied the treatment to the ceramic floor tiles in the walk in shower. Both areas were left to settle and after the guys went and got a bite to eat. A second coat was applied. We stayed off the driveway for a good 36 hours ; however, the shower was ready for immediate use. Everyone who has" slip slided away "on the drive, sidewalk and in the shower were happy and made comments as to how different the surface felt and that there was definitely more traction. Frank told me he would call me to check on how things were and in 6 months would come out and check the areas that the treatment was applied. I would not hesitate to refer Frank Garriga and the Slip Doctors to anyone who had a similar problem. They were courteous, professional, friendly and provided a much needed service for me and my family to prevent any further injury and or loss of work time. It was difficult to find someone who had a solution to the problem but "Slip Doctors " got it done!! Thanks Guys.
Description of Work: The newly poured area of the driveway and the walk in shower ceramic tile floor were treated.
