Project Features

Double Garage Installation

The entire double garage floor was coated with a seamless flake epoxy system, creating a consistent and professional finish throughout the space.

Decorative Flake Broadcast

Premium vinyl flakes were evenly distributed across the epoxy base coat to achieve a modern, textured appearance with enhanced durability.

Heavy-Duty Protective Topcoat

A clear protective topcoat was applied to seal the flakes, improve scratch resistance, and provide excellent UV and stain protection.

Premium Surface Preparation

Mechanical diamond grinding ensured maximum adhesion between the existing concrete slab and the epoxy coating system.

Installation Process

Concrete Inspection

The garage floor was inspected for cracks, stains, moisture, and surface defects before installation.

Surface Preparation

The concrete was mechanically ground to remove contaminants and create the ideal surface profile for epoxy bonding.

Crack & Joint Repairs

Minor cracks and imperfections were repaired to produce a smooth, even foundation.

Epoxy Base Coat Application

A premium epoxy base coat was applied to create a strong bond with the concrete substrate.

Decorative Flake Broadcast

Vinyl flakes were broadcast evenly across the wet epoxy to achieve complete coverage and a decorative finish.

Protective Clear Topcoat

After excess flakes were removed, a durable clear topcoat was applied to lock in the decorative finish and maximize long-term performance.
