Epoxy, Terrazzo, and Polished Concrete Estimating
Tribuild takes off resinous and polished floors by system and area: epoxy and urethane coatings, terrazzo, and polished concrete, with surface prep, moisture mitigation, cove base, and joints carried so the whole floor system is priced.
Resinous and polished floors are priced on the system and the prep beneath it. Tribuild takes off epoxy and urethane coatings, epoxy and cementitious terrazzo, and polished concrete by area and system, and carries surface prep and moisture mitigation as their own lines, since they drive a large share of the cost.
Cove base and joints are quantified by linear foot, coat counts follow the spec, and every deliverable ships with color-coded plans and documented assumptions your team can price and defend. Resilient and hard-surface flooring lives on the Commercial Flooring page.
