Photographs

All photos are licensed stock or openly licensed images. None show work done by this site or by any contractor it sends requests to. Photos are resized and compressed. Two (the gray flake close-up and the black and pearl metallic floor) were cropped to remove a watermark or edge clutter. Many coated-floor photos come from Decorative Concrete Kingdom, a coating products company, and show floors installed by other companies outside Missouri.
