Since opening their doors nearly 40 years ago, Associated Concrete Coatings, Inc. (ACC) has become much more than just
a plastering and specialty coatings contractor. ACC also offers caulking and sealant protection on major buildings and
parking garages, both new and existing as well as vertical and horizontal. In 1983, ACC was one of the first waterproofing contractors
in the region to become certified for the TUFF-N-DRI waterproofing system, which is one of the leading below-grade waterproofing
products in the industry today.
In 1986, ACC became more involved with high-profile restoration and parking garage coating projects such as the
Cambridgeside Galleria, Copley Plaza, and, more recently, the Manchester Airport and the Mountain Club at Loon.
By 1991, ACC was well on its way to fully establishing an industrial floor division. With an impressive resumé of
floor projects such as Anheuser Busch, Q.A. Technology, and a unique, stained, multi-colored design at Concord Technical
College, ACC has taken floor design to a new level.
The following year, Gallery, Inc. was established as an affiliate company specializing in hydro demolition
services. Highly pressurized water jets remove deteriorated concrete and asphalt on surfaces such as parking
garages, bridges, and dams. Productivity is up to twenty times faster than jackhammering. When the job is complete,
the company remains environmentally responsible and cost-effective by employing a fully contained recycled water recovery
system and by removing all debris.
Defined by its reputation, ACC takes quality standards and job efficiency seriously. Its clients rely on ACC's
valuable insight and knowledge, especially in complicated and challenging situations. ACC has received several
quality achievement and milestone awards to date. ACC is certified with the Air Barrier Association of America
(ABAA) and has completed the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Ten Hour Training Program, resulting in an impressive,
award-winning safety record. A client interested in working with experienced, solution-driven professionals should
look to ACC when searching for a specialty coatings contractor.

Langdon Woods Residence Hall at Plymouth State University
The Langdon Woods project received the Building of America Gold Medal Award with the help of ACC. ACC resurfaced nine hundred square feet of retaining wall andd stairs at the back entranceway of
the complex. "The form panels and wall ties created an unfinished appearance," says Carleen Goguen,
marketing manager for ACC. "Associated Concrete Coatings, Inc. was contracted to resurface and apply a finishing
coat of Thorseal® plaster mix to create an attractive and durable protective finish."
Nashua Wet Weather Waste Water
For this project, ACC integrated waterproofing, traffic membrane, sealants, coating removal, restoration, and
hydro demolition. "Due to the critical nature of the waterproofing applications required, Methuen chose
Associated Concrete Coatings based on their reputation in the area and expertise with specified products,"
said Greg Galbraith, project manager for general contractors Methuen Construction. "Due to Associated (Concrete)
Coatings' extensive capabilities, we were able to include all of the sealants, traffic coatings, and dampprooofing
(in) their overall scope of work for the project."
Exeter Hospital
ACC used its integrated package for this project by repairing the concrete pour strips between the precast plans,
removing the existing sealants, applying new sealants, and shot-blasting the deck. To complete the job, the Neogard Auto-Gard
Traffic System was applied.
