Project Spotlight: Durable Front and Back Patio Coatings for the Robbings Family in Middleton, Idaho
January 1, 2024
We recently had the pleasure of working with the Robbings family in Middleton, Idaho, who wanted to elevate both their front porch and back patio. They were looking for a durable, slip-resistant finish that would keep both areas looking clean and welcoming, without the hassle of high maintenance. Spray ’n Coat Painting was excited to help make their vision a reality with our better-than-epoxy concrete coatings.
Here’s What We Did:
- Slip-Resistant Concrete Coating: We applied a premium, slip-resistant concrete coating to both the front porch and back patio, creating a safer and more attractive space.
- Polyaspartic Top Coat: To maximize durability and easy maintenance, we finished both surfaces with a polyaspartic top coat. This high-performance layer is UV-stable and it resists stains, dirt, and oil, making it ideal for outdoor areas.
- Enhanced Curb Appeal and Functionality: With this new concrete coating, the front porch is now a welcoming, easy-to-clean entryway, and the back patio is ready for family gatherings and outdoor entertaining.
Project Impact: Thanks to their new Spray ’n Coat concrete coatings, the Robbings family can enjoy both their front porch and back patio without worrying about chips, stains, or constant upkeep. This project highlights our commitment to helping Idaho homeowners create beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.
Thank you to the Robbings family for trusting us with this project! We’re proud to serve Middleton, Boise, Meridian, Nampa, and the entire Boise Metro area with concrete floor coatings for patios, porches, garages, and more.

At Spray ’n Coat Painting, we often get called in to finish what others couldn’t quite get right—and that was the case with this 2,000 sq. ft. concrete floor coating project at the Caldwell Airport terminal. The building, now home to a private charter company, needed a durable and clean finish to make the space more welcoming for employees and travelers. Project Background This terminal originally had carpet in several areas, and after it was removed, thick glue residue was left behind across the concrete floors. Our customer had hired another contractor to handle the coating work, but unfortunately, they lacked the necessary equipment and experience for the job. That’s when we stepped in to get things done right. Our Process To give the customer the clean, sealed finish he was hoping for, our crew tackled the job in several key steps: Joint Filler Replacement: We started by removing the old joint filler and refilling the seams. Heavy Grinding & Surface Prep: Using professional grinding equipment, we stripped away all glue residue and opened up the pores of the concrete to ensure a strong bond. Matte Polyurethane Coating: We applied a commercial-grade polyurethane sealer in a matte finish. This not only improved the look of the space but also provided a stain-resistant, slip-resistant surface that can stand up to heavy foot traffic. Why It Matters For a commercial space like this—where first impressions matter and safety is non-negotiable—the right prep and coating system makes all the difference. The finished floor is now sealed, low-maintenance, and ready to take on day-to-day traffic from both staff and customers.

Key Differences in How Moisture Affects Painted vs. Wood Cabinets
Kitchen Island Cabinet Painting: Creating a Standout Statement with Dried Thyme Not every kitchen upgrade requires a full remodel. Sometimes, one bold, well-executed change can make the biggest impact. That was the case with this recent kitchen island makeover, where our customer wanted one thing: to make their island the statement piece of the space. They chose Dried Thyme by Sherwin-Williams—a soft, earthy green that brings both character and calm to a room. We used our cabinet painting process to deliver a durable, factory-grade finish that gave their island a whole new identity. Here’s how it came together—and why cabinet painting is one of the smartest updates you can make in your kitchen. Why the Island? Why Dried Thyme? This homeowner wasn’t trying to overhaul their entire kitchen. Their layout worked well, the surrounding white cabinetry was in great shape, and their countertops already brought a clean, timeless look. But the island felt flat. It blended in too much—and they wanted something with a little more presence. Enter Dried Thyme (SW 6186) . This sage-toned green shifts beautifully with the light throughout the day, creating a cozy yet elevated look. It paired perfectly with their existing white perimeter cabinets, quartz counters, and the updated matte black hardware. Looking for more island color inspiration? Sherwin-Williams has a great visualizer tool for testing colors in real spaces.
