Concrete Floor Coatings
Concrete floor coatings are popular for their durability, clean appearance, and practical performance in hardworking spaces. Whether used in a garage, basement, shop, or workspace, an epoxy coating can help turn plain concrete into a smoother, more finished surface that is easier to clean and maintain.
While adding a polished look to the space, this is a great option for homeowners who want their concrete floor to look better and hold up to everyday use. Whether you use the space for parking, storage, tools, hobbies, or projects, a professionally installed concrete coating can give the room a cleaner, stronger foundation.
Durable & Moisture Resistant
A non-porous sealed surface helps reduce the risk of damage from moisture, leaks, mold, and mildew. Highly resistant to erosion and everyday wear.
Finished Look
Solid colors or decorative chips create a smooth, polished surface that elevates any garage, basement, or workspace.
Easy to Clean & Stain Resistant
Sealed, non-porous surface makes sweeping and mopping easy. Spills wipe up easily and stains don’t soak in.
Long-Lasting
Here on the Palouse, rain and snow mean there’s always a risk of moisture seeping in. Thanks to its non-porous sealed surface, an epoxy floor reduces the risk of damage from a water leak, or that long exposure to moisture will cause mold or mildew. While they can’t eliminate the possibility of cracks from belowground causes, concrete coatings are highly resistant to erosion. When installed correctly, they bond to the concrete and help to prevent cracks from forming due to the wear and tear of daily use or the elements.
Smooth Appearance
Whether you opt for a solid-color coating or choose to add decorative chips, an epoxy floor can elevate your garage from a crumbling hole to a shiny space port. With the right preparation, concrete coatings can completely cover over small cracks and imperfections, creating a smooth, finished surface. Solid colors are ideal for a workspace where you want to be able to find any nuts and bolts that fall to the floor. Conversely, decorative chips add visual texture and are a great choice if you’re concerned that dust and dirt will easily show. Either way, a coated floor gives a polished look to your space.
Low-Maintenance
Uncoated concrete floors can be difficult to keep clean. Their porous surfaces can collect dust and retain permanent stains. In contrast, epoxy-coated floors are easy to sweep or even mop. You don’t have to worry that drips will soak in and leave stains; spills can be wiped up easily. The low-maintenance, easy-to-clean aspect of epoxy floors ensures that they will stay looking great for years to come.
Inspect The Concrete
We start by closely looking at the slab. We check for cracks, stains, old coatings, sealers, oil spots, surface water, soft areas, moisture concerns, and anything else that could affect how well the coating bonds.
Prepare the Surface
We fill small cracks when appropriate, smooth out rough areas, and create a clean foundation for the epoxy to bond properly with the concrete.
Apply the Coating
Once the floor is ready, we mix and apply the coating at the proper thickness for a consistent surface and a better finished result.
Add decorative chips
If you choose decorative chips, we spread them evenly across the floor to create the right texture and appearance. Timing and coverage are key at this stage.
Allow proper cure time
After the coating is applied, we allow it to cure properly so the finished floor can perform the way it should.
Is An Epoxy Coating Right For Your Concrete?
A coating is not a magic cover-up for a failing slab, but for many garage and basement floors, it is a smart way to protect and finish the concrete without tearing everything out and starting over.
