    Sealing new concrete floor

    The garage floor in my new build house is not sealed and there is a large amount of dust coming off it.

    Like my last one, I sealed the floor and I think I used Ronseal Concrete Sealer but don't seem to be able to find it available anywhere now.

    Anyone have any recommendations on what product to use or ones they have used in the past?

    Can't you just use a water/pva mix? Get rid of as much dust first then roller it in.

    Re: Sealing new concrete floor

    I sealed my garage floor last summer and had the same concerns about dusting and longevity. Before sealing, I used a release agent to help with curing and stopping the surface from lifting when I later cleaned it. If you're wondering where to buy concrete release agent, I got mine online from globmarble. Worked well and wasn’t expensive either.

    Re: Sealing new concrete floor

    I recently faced the same issue with my new garage floor — tons of dust coming off the concrete. On my previous home, I used Ronseal Concrete Sealer, which worked well, but it seems to be hard to find now.
    For anyone dealing with sealing or maintenance issues, it’s also worth keeping an eye on moisture problems that can affect concrete long-term. If you’re in the Atlanta area, the team at atlantamoldfix.com offers professional mold remediation services and can help ensure your floor stays dry and safe.
