A professionally-installed epoxy floor is one of the most effective and long-lasting garage flooring solutions you can invest in as a homeowner. Being a homeowner comes with many costs and, eventually, even repair work will itself have to be repaired and updated if enough time passes. That is why we recommend our epoxy and polyaspartic solutions for all your garage flooring needs to give you peace of mind, a wonderful and newly realized space, and especially, lifelong longevity.
A professionally-installed epoxy garage floor is ideal for customers who want a product that will meet their needs in the long-term. If properly maintained, most epoxy floor systems can last up to 20 years—with some providing lifelong satisfaction.
The secret to a well-installed epoxy floor system is that care, professionalism, and patience characterize every part of our multi-step process. By ensuring that the concrete in your garage is first well-cleaned, properly ground with our diamond toolbits, and then expertly repaired with our concrete patching solutions, you can rest assured that the concrete below your epoxy coating will last just as long as the coating itself. When the preparation process is carefully completed, the coating is then applied in two stages: the epoxy base coat which will penetrate deep into the existing concrete, providing durability and longevity, then followed 24-hours later with a strong, flexible, and UV/chemical resistant polyaspartic top coat to give your flooring a glossy final touch that is both aesthetic and durable.
However, even the best work by professionals must be maintained and cared for to ensure long-term use. That’s why we recommend a few tips and tricks when caring for your epoxy coating. First, in the winter months be sure to avoid harsh salt-based products for removing ice and snow, as these may scratch the top coat of the flooring. Rather, we recommend using rubber mats when possible over high-traffic areas. Also, choose a plastic shovel when removing snow or ice from your garage floor, as a metal tool may damage and chip the top coat.
Lastly, to best protect your epoxy garage floor for years to come, we recommend regularly cleaning and squeegeeing of the area to remove excess moisture. Warm water and a little soap will often do the trick—avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or vinegar, as these may dull or damage the flooring with excessive exposure.
