1-Star Review – Siloxane Solution & Armour Flooring SA: An Expensive Disaster

Do NOT use Siloxane Solution and definitely do NOT trust Ryan from Armour Flooring SA. In 2024 we spent over R100,000 having our floor power-floated to a beautiful smooth finish. Ryan, operating as an independent contractor under the name Armour Flooring SA, strongly recommended and sold us Siloxane Solution as the “best penetrating sealer on the market” to protect the concrete. Less than 2 months later the floor looks worse than before it was even power-floated. The sealer has failed catastrophically: • Dark staining and patchy discolouration • Oil and water soak straight in – no protection at all • In some areas the concrete is actually breaking down.

Ryan has been stringing us along for a full year with excuse after excuse. He has never returned to fix his shocking workmanship, despite dozens of messages, photos and videos sent as proof.

As for Siloxane Solution themselves – their “support” is a disgrace. After finally getting hold of someone and supplying photos and proof of purchase, we received one generic email saying they “can’t be held responsible for application errors” and then nothing. No site visit, no refund, no replacement product, no advice. Complete radio silence ever since. R100,000 down the drain because of a useless product and a contractor who disappears the moment things go wrong. Save your money and your sanity. Avoid Siloxane Solution and especially avoid Ryan from Armour Flooring SA. There are reputable sealing products and honest contractors out there – these are not them. Strongly NOT recommended.
