🕒 Durability & Performance
Q: How long does an epoxy floor last?
A: When properly installed and maintained, our high-solids epoxy systems with a clear urethane topcoat can last 10–15 years or more, even under daily use.
Q: Is your floor system resistant to hot tires?
A: Yes. Our coatings are designed to resist hot tire pickup, oil stains, fuel spills, and heavy traffic — making them ideal for garages and workshops.
Q: Will the coating peel, lift, bubble, or fade in sunlight?
A: No. We mechanically diamond grind the surface, patch damaged areas, and apply high-performance epoxy with a UV-stable urethane topcoat. This ensures long-term adhesion and protects against peeling, bubbling, yellowing, or fading — even with daily sun exposure.
Q: Can I park my car on it, even with hot tires?
A: Yes — our epoxy systems are hot tire pickup resistant, meaning they’re formulated to handle the heat and pressure of your tires without lifting or marking.
🛠️ Installation Process
Q: How long does installation take?
A: Most residential garage floors take 1–2 days, depending on surface condition, prep work, and cure time. You can usually walk on it after 24 hours and park your car after 3–5 days.
Q: Can you install the floor in sections if the garage isn’t empty?
A: Yes — we can apply the coating in two phases (half and half) if needed. This allows you to move items from one side to the other. However, we do require each section to be completely empty and clear when we’re working on it. For best results, we recommend clearing the entire garage beforehand when possible, but we’re happy to work with you on a phased approach if needed.
Q: How long does it take to cure?
A: You can walk on the floor after 24 hours, move light items in after 48 hours, and park your car after 3–5 days, depending on humidity and temperature.
Q: What’s the difference between etching and grinding?
A: Etching uses acid to lightly texture the surface — we don’t use that. We use diamond grinding, which is the industry-standard method for concrete prep, ensuring maximum bond strength.
Q: Do you test for moisture before applying?
A: Yes — we inspect for moisture issues or hydrostatic pressure, and if needed, we apply moisture mitigation primers to prevent bubbling or adhesion failure.
Q: What’s included in the installation?
A: Our process includes grinding the concrete, repairing cracks and divots, applying a 2-part high-solids epoxy, optional full or part flake broadcast, and finishing with a UV-stable urethane topcoat.
🎨 Customization & Options
Q: Can I customize the look of my floor?
A: Absolutely. We offer a variety of flake colors and finishes to match your style — from modern grays to decorative blends.
Q: I’ve heard polyurea or polycuramine is better — why choose epoxy?
A: When applied correctly with proper surface prep and a urethane topcoat, epoxy + urethane is just as durable and more cost-effective than many DIY or hybrid kits. It also allows for professional customization and longer-lasting results.
Q: Is this better than a DIY kit?
A: Yes — we use commercial-grade products, grind the surface (which most DIY kits skip), and apply multiple coats including a urethane finish. Our floors are thicker, longer-lasting, and professionally installed for worry-free results.
📞 General Services
Q: Do you offer commercial and industrial services too?
A: Yes. We install high-performance flooring systems for warehouses, retail stores, auto shops, restaurants, and other commercial or industrial settings.
Q: Do you offer free estimates?
A: Yes! We provide free on-site consultations and detailed estimates with no obligation.
Q: Is this a large crew or company that will be doing the work?
A: No — we’re a father and son small business, not a big crew or outsourced team. That means every project is handled personally and professionally, with close attention to detail. We take pride in our work, treat your home or business with care, and focus on doing the job right the first time. We’re not just here to “get it done” — we’re here to build long-term trust and results you’ll be proud of and also recommend us.
🧼 Maintenance & Safety
Q: How do I clean the epoxy floor?
A: Epoxy floors are low-maintenance. Just sweep regularly and use a mild detergent with water for deeper cleaning. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners — a mop or soft-bristle brush works great.
Q: Is the floor slippery when wet?
A: Like any smooth surface, epoxy can become slick when wet. To improve traction, we offer optional non-slip solutions — including textured flake systems and added grit in the topcoat. You can choose your preferred level of grip based on your needs (e.g., car washing, pool access, kids or elderly use). We’re happy to show you photos and physical samples during your consultation so you can see how each option looks and feels.
Q: Can I use a pressure washer on it?
A: Yes — but we recommend using a wide fan tip at low to moderate pressure to avoid damaging the clear coat over time. Spot cleaning with a mop or hose is usually enough for most messes.
📋 Trust, Credentials & Satisfaction
Q: Are you licensed and insured?
A: Yes — we are fully licensed and insured for residential and commercial work, so you’re always protected and in good hands.
Q: What happens if I’m not happy with the result?
A: We take pride in our craftsmanship and customer service. If something doesn’t meet your expectations, we’ll work with you to address and correct it — your satisfaction matters.
Q: Can I see before-and-after photos of past jobs?
A: Absolutely! We maintain a curated portfolio of our past projects — including before-and-after photos, flake color options, and different finish types — to help you visualize the transformation. During your free estimate, we’ll show examples that match your garage style and size. You can also view our work online or request sample images ahead of time to get a feel for the look you want.
🧪 Product Comparison & Value
Q: What’s the difference between your epoxy and the kits at Home Depot?
A: Our system uses high-solids, commercial-grade epoxy with a UV-stable urethane topcoat — much thicker, more durable, and professionally prepped using mechanical grinding. Most DIY kits skip proper prep, contain less epoxy per gallon, and may not last more than a few years.
Q: Is this the same as those 1-day garage floor companies?
A: Not quite. While they often use fast-curing polyurea or polyaspartic systems, we focus on high-quality epoxy and urethane combinations that allow for better surface bonding, curing control, and longevity — plus, we never rush the process just to finish in a day.
