02 / MORE THAN PAINT

Four layers. One tough floor.

The visible finish is only the last part of the story. Preparation, bond, flake, and protection work together as a complete system.

Prep creates the bond

Grinding and repair review happen before the coating starts.

Full flake creates the look

Broadcast to refusal for even color, hidden patch work and a texture that hides everyday dirt.

Topcoat handles daily life

UV-stable, chemical-resistant and easy to clean — hot tires, salt and spills included.

FROM BARE SLAB TO FINISHED FLOOR
01

CHECK THE SLAB

We review cracks, repairs, moisture risk, edges, access, and how you use the space.

02

GRIND + REPAIR

Mechanical preparation creates the clean, profiled surface the coating needs to bond.

 
03

BUILD THE COLOR

The selected basecoat goes down, followed by a full decorative flake broadcast.

04

DIAL THE TEXTURE

The cured broadcast is scraped and vacuumed for an even, comfortable finish.

05

LOCK IT IN

A clear protective topcoat finishes the system, followed by care and return-to-use guidance.

05 / KNOW THE BUILD

COMPARE MORE THAN THE PRICE.

A useful estimate should make the preparation, layers, finish strategy, and project scope easy for a homeowner to understand.

07 / QUICK ANSWERS

GOOD FLOORS START WITH GOOD QUESTIONS.

The six we get asked most. Anything not covered here, call and ask — we would rather answer it now than after the coating is down.

Most two- and three-car garages are a one- to two-day install. Grinding and repairs happen on day one, the coating build follows, and you are typically walking on it within 24 hours and parking on it in about three days depending on the system and temperature.

Grinding opens the pores of the slab so the basecoat anchors mechanically into the concrete. Acid etching and pressure washing leave the surface closed, which is the single most common reason coatings peel in sheets a year or two later.

No. Garage paint is a thin single-coat product that sits on the surface. What we install is a multi-layer system — bonded basecoat, broadcast flake and a protective topcoat — measured in mils, not coats, and rated for hot tires, salt and chemical spills.

You choose the slip profile. Flake texture alone adds grip, and we can add fine aggregate to the topcoat for wet areas like patios, pool decks and entryways. We will walk you through the options against how the space actually gets used.

Usually yes. Cracks, joints, pits and spalled edges get cut, filled and re-profiled before any coating goes down. The exception is a slab with active structural movement or unresolved moisture — we test for both and tell you before quoting.

Yes. Shops, warehouses, service bays and showrooms. Commercial work is scoped around your operating hours with fast-return systems where downtime matters, and every scope comes with product data sheets and cure windows in writing.
