The Longpr\u00e9 Group stands out from the crowd with its multitude of top quality projects carried out over the years. It is now run by members of the second generation. Their mission is &#8220;to provide world-class construction, development and property management services for any type of project.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.residencemontcarmel.com\/\">Mont-Carmel residence<\/a>, a true sanctuary and haven of peace for independent retirees, is one of the many examples. The residence is located in the heart of the Ville-Marie district, in Montreal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the last projects of R\u00e9sidence Mont-Carmel was to breathe new life into its indoor parking lot of nearly 12,000 square feet. We worked with their employees and managers to make this project happen!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CHALLENGES<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our main challenge: complete the project within a strict deadline of less than 10 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We had to ensure the proper management of pedestrian traffic in the mechanical rooms and waste management rooms located in the parking lot. These rooms are regularly used for the proper functioning of the activities of the residence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We also had to work in a controlled environment (of noise, odors and dust), in order to avoid compromising the serenity of the residence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The concrete was in an advanced state of deterioration caused by calcium deposition and automobile traffic. Without forgetting that several cavities had to be sealed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, a negative slope near the interior walls directing water towards the walls also needed to be corrected.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SOLUTIONS<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We worked closely with managers and employees to establish a controlled and adequate environment during the work:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daytime hours, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use of products without VOC (Volatile Organic Compound), therefore products without solvents, odorless and safe to inhale<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use of equipment equipped with dust collectors to minimize projected dust.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In response to the client&#8217;s goals of having a secure epoxy parking lot, our team proceeded to the surface preparation by shot blasting. Then, the sealing of cracks and cavities on more than 80% of the surface. The concrete slab was subsequently coated with epoxy and aggregate sand. This system makes it slip-resistant and protects it from all contaminants, in particular calcium which damages the surface of the concrete.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RESULTS<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The respect of the terms of the mandate entrusted to us, the good management of the budget which was established as well as the respect of the deadlines allowed the realization of this project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Mont-Carmel residence is now equipped with a revitalized, secure and waterproof interior epoxy parking lot. There is no risk of mold and water build-up. Maintenance is thus much easier and its durability is prolonged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is strongly recommended to cover a new concrete slab as soon as it is poured in order to protect it from various contaminants and to preserve its long-term investment. The decision to cover the slab with concrete now instead of allowing it to degrade further saved even more onerous costs. Indeed, these costs are often related to an excavation of the existing slab and a new pour of concrete.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SYSTEM<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The system that was installed as part of this project is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shot blasting csp 4<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">80% of the slab was covered with a fast-setting cementitious material<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slope correction over 150 linear feet with cementitious concrete<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diamond grinding of patching concrete<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First coat: 11 thousandths of an inch of plain opaque epoxy<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full saturation: 24 grit sand<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second coat: 27 thousandths of an inch of solid opaque epoxy<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Need to redo the coating of your parking lot? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonsurface.ca\/en\/contact\/\">Contact us!<\/a><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;19276&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631722819344{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;] Industrial Case Study &#8211; Indoor Epoxy Parking Lot [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1631728549843{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;] PROJECT Restoration of a 12,000 square foot indoor parking lot with an epoxy floor in a solid opaque color.
