Concrete surface preparation is the first step for garage floor coatings

Step 1: We Prepare the Surface

Our installers mechanically prepare your garage's concrete floor the same as our commercial and industrial customers.

Edges and small surfaces are prepared by our extensive array of hand-grinders. Best of all, we capture the dust with our special dust collection vacuums.

The second step for garage floor coatings is concrete surface repairs

Step 2: We Repair the Surface

After surface grinding, our installers will fill the cracks with the appropriate epoxy or polyurea repair materials.

Any remaining surface contaminants are removed and surface damage (spalling, divots, or peeling) is repaired with industrial repair materials.

After surface prep and repairs, we coat the garage floor surface

Step 3: We Coat the Surface

Our installers will apply your garage's floor coatings using industry standard techniques perfected over our 20 years in business.

Our floor coating systems utilize industrial grade materials applied at the proper film thickness, temperature ranges, and environmental conditions.

Edge work is completed by hand.

Is warm weather required to install coatings in my garage?

Our garage floor coatings can be applied year round. Unlike epoxy paint kits, our garage floor coatings don't require a warm concrete slab (substrate) or warm air to cure. We've successfully applied our garage coatings in temperatures as low as 15 degrees!

You don't have to provide heat or cooling to your garage, either. If your floor has radiant heat, we'll work with you to set the appropriate temperature during the coatings process.

What is the most common floor coating system for a garage?

Our decorative chip/flake coatings are the most common - not only for us, but also nationally.

They are available in many different colors and blends.

Decorative chip coatings create a premier garage look. These epoxy floor coatings do the most for increasing functionality in a daily use garage.

Decorative chip system highlights:

Simulates the look of terrazzo or granite.
Hides dirt, grime, and debris.
Provides excellent scratch and chemical resistance.
Easily repaired if damaged.
Features an orange-peel finish and includes a non-slip additive.
Helps ease the look of wavy floors or floors that slope to drains.

Does my garage need an epoxy moisture vapor barrier?

Typically, an epoxy moisture vapor barrier is unnecessary. Properly constructed garages that are at or above grade will have a stone base under the concrete slab. So, moisture vapor emission rates (MVER) will be very low.

Garages that are below grade or located in geography that has high water tables may have a high MVER, but often the issues can be mitigated by leaving the control joints (saw cuts) open.

Our garage experts can assist you with this determination. Beware - there are companies who will include moisture vapor treatments as part of their standard offering. This treatment is usually unnecessary and greatly increases the price of the overall garage floor system.

How does this differ from an epoxy paint kit?

The short answer is the garage epoxy paint kits sold at the big box stores are really just fortified paints. Our garage floor coatings are industrial grade polymers designed for high adhesion and high performance. For a more detailed explanation, see these articles in our Blog:

What if my garage floor has a sealer on it?

Not a problem. Our surface grinding equipment can cut through sealers, garage floor paint kits, and overlays. More often than not, we are removing former, failed attempts to protect or enhance the concrete.

Our installation teams have a tremendous amount of experience in all types of removals. We've completed projects where our installers removed over 10 layers of paint that was applied over a 50 year period. Even sticky, uncured DIY kits can easily be removed.

Why don't you acid etch the concrete prior to coating?

Preparing a concrete surface using the acid etching process is messy, dangerous, and often ineffective. While this process is typically used by the Do-It-Yourself epoxy paint kits, all reputable and experienced floor coating companies will prepare your concrete with a mechanical form of surface abrasion, such as diamond grinding or shot blasting.

Diamond grinding is the most effective and productive form of surface preparation for a residential garage floor. It's how our teams will prepare your concrete.

What if I have a garage floor covering system installed (tiles, mats)?

Plastic tiles and garage floor mats can just be removed several days prior to the arrival of our coatings team. Removing them days prior allows the concrete to properly air out and dry. Often, garage floor coverings trap moisture and can even create odor and mold issues. There may be an odor after removing the floor coverings, but that odor won't be an issue after we install our coatings.
