Certified Finishes

Design by: HOK

Atlanta, GA

Completed: 1/21/22

Certified Finishes came out on top when Hitt Contracting started identifying and working on the foundation remediation due to sinking. We were able to recommended Shonox SL to assist with leveling the floor after the remediation took place and everyone was very happy with the quick installation process.

There was also a slight mis-calculation for the train track flooring installation in the child care center by the water jet company hired to created this design and due to scheduling we couldn’t wait for them to re-create. Our expert installation crew went right to work, hand cutting the track design in the flooring and you cannot even tell which piece were water jet cut and which were hand cut. Certified has the best installation crews around!
