Why Your Garage Floor Needs Protection

Your garage floor takes a beating. Cars, tools, chemicals, and constant foot traffic all wear down bare concrete. Without protection, your floor will stain, crack, and deteriorate faster than it should. An epoxy coating solves this problem by creating a tough, sealed surface that stands up to everything you throw at it.

Bare concrete is porous. That means it absorbs oil, antifreeze, and other fluids that leak from your vehicle. Once these stains set in, they are almost impossible to remove. Epoxy and polyurea coatings create a barrier that prevents absorption. Spills wipe up easily before they have a chance to soak in and leave permanent marks.

Beyond protecting the concrete, a coated floor looks incredible. It transforms a dull, dusty garage into a clean, professional space. You can choose from solid colors, metallic finishes, or decorative flakes that add texture and visual interest. The glossy finish reflects light, making your garage brighter and more inviting.

Durability is another major benefit. A properly installed coating can last 10 to 20 years or more with minimal maintenance. You do not need to worry about repainting or resealing every year. The coating resists abrasion, impact, and chemicals. It is designed to handle heavy use without chipping or peeling.

Choosing the Right Coating for Your Garage

We offer several types of garage floor coatings, each with its own advantages. Epoxy is the most popular choice. It is a two-part coating that chemically bonds to the concrete. Once cured, it forms a hard, durable surface that resists stains and damage. Epoxy comes in many colors and can include decorative flakes for added grip and style.

Polyurea and polyaspartic coatings are newer options that offer even greater durability and faster curing times. These coatings are more flexible than epoxy, which helps them resist cracking. They also cure quickly, so you can use your garage sooner. Polyaspartic coatings are UV stable, meaning they will not yellow or fade in sunlight if your garage gets natural light.

Benefits of Professional Garage Floor Coatings

  • Resists oil, chemicals, and hot tire pickup
  • Easy to clean with just soap and water
  • Non-porous surface prevents stains from setting
  • Adds slip resistance with decorative flake options
  • Brightens your garage with high-gloss finish
  • Lasts 10 to 20 years with proper care

We also offer solid color coatings, metallic epoxies, and custom blends. Solid colors give you a clean, uniform look. Metallic coatings create a unique, high-end appearance with depth and shimmer. Custom blends let you mix colors and flakes to create a floor that matches your style.

The key to a long-lasting coating is proper preparation. We do not cut corners. We grind or acid-etch the concrete to open the pores and create a strong bond. We fill cracks and repair any damage before we apply the coating. This prep work is what separates a professional installation from a DIY job that peels off in a year.

How We Install Your Garage Floor Coating

Installing a garage floor coating is a multi-step process that requires skill and attention to detail. We start by thoroughly cleaning your floor. Any dirt, oil, or debris will prevent the coating from bonding properly. We use industrial cleaners and power washing to get the surface as clean as possible.

Next, we prepare the concrete through grinding or etching. This step creates a rough surface that the coating can grip. Grinding is our preferred method because it removes the top layer of concrete and opens up the pores. It also levels out any minor imperfections. Etching uses acid to create texture and is faster for smaller jobs.

Once the floor is prepped, we inspect it for cracks and damage. We repair any issues before coating. Cracks need to be filled and leveled. Low spots need to be built up. This ensures your coating goes on smooth and level.

Now we apply the coating. For epoxy, we mix the two parts together and roll it onto the floor in sections. If you chose decorative flakes, we broadcast them into the wet coating. Once the base coat cures, we apply a clear topcoat for extra protection and shine. We use the same professional techniques we use on commercial floors to ensure your garage looks amazing and lasts for years.
