Discover the benefits our services provide below.
Your basement or garage gets lots of heavy use. You might use it to store:
It might also offer refuge while you work on a project, but a plain concrete floor will absorb oil and dirt, which eventually causes it to crack. Epoxy flooring provides an attractive, protective coating to keep your garage floor stable and flat.
Epoxy floors can improve the function and appearance of numerous businesses, including:
You can request a coating that reflects your brand colors or adds a touch of warmth to the space. The material protects your staff and customers with slip-resistant qualities that prevent falls. Plus, epoxy’s UV resistance ensures it looks gorgeous for years.
Our epoxy products are free of volatile organic compounds because we want to help protect your health and the environment. We also deliver stunning results by offering three different types of finishes and multiple colors.
Reflector epoxy has a swirling appearance that combines two or three related colors. Its elegance makes it a great option for restaurants, ballrooms, and sprawling living rooms.
We mix colorful flakes into the base epoxy, adding colorful bursts to any area, and it works well in garages, basements, and bars.
This finish works best in high-traffic places, especially those that garner spills. Its slip resistance and durability offer extensive protection for all occupants.
An installer can often coat an older concrete floor, but they should repair loose, cracked, spalled, or otherwise unsound areas before applying the flooring system. Proper surface preparation gives the coating a clean, solid surface to bond to and helps prevent early peeling or failure.
Cure time varies by coating system, temperature, humidity, and the number of layers the installer applies. Some systems allow light foot traffic fairly quickly, while vehicle traffic and full use may require several days, so follow the return-to-service instructions for the specific system on your floor.
Sweep or remove grit regularly, clean spills before they build up, and mop the floor with water and an appropriate cleaner when needed. Keeping abrasive dirt off the surface and following the coating manufacturer’s cleaning recommendations can help the finish stay attractive longer.
Epoxy works well in many garages, shops, commercial buildings, and other concrete floor areas because properly selected systems can handle vehicle traffic, abrasion, spills, and everyday wear. You can also choose textures and aggregate systems that add slip resistance where wet floors or heavier traffic create extra concerns.
Choose the system around how you’ll actually use the floor: decorative reflector finishes suit appearance-focused spaces, flake systems work well in garages and similar areas, and quartz systems add texture for busy or spill-prone locations. An installer should also consider traffic, moisture, cleaning needs, and the condition of the existing concrete before recommending a system.
