What We Did

We began by mechanically grinding the concrete surface to ensure strong adhesion. Proper concrete preparation is critical — you can learn more about why and how it”s done here: Concrete Prep Before Epoxy.

Next, we applied a high-performance base coat and broadcast a full layer of decorative epoxy flakes in a gray blend. Finally, we sealed everything with a UV-stable topcoat, providing a glossy, protective finish that resists chemicals, stains, and tire marks. To complete the garage makeover, we painted the walls in a clean, light tone — creating a brighter, more functional space.

What Is Epoxy Flake Coating?

Epoxy flake coating is a high-performance, multilayer flooring system designed to combine durability with decorative appeal. It starts with a tinted epoxy base coat, followed by a full broadcast of vinyl flakes, and finishes with a clear, protective topcoat.

The flakes come in various sizes, colors, and blends, so you can fully customize the appearance of your floor — from subtle gray tones to bold, high-contrast finishes. But epoxy flake isn’t just about looks. The system is engineered to:

  • Add texture for improved slip resistance
  • Hide dirt, dust, and imperfections
  • Create a seamless, easy-to-clean surface
  • Extend the life of your concrete by protecting it from wear, chemicals, and moisture

You’ve probably seen epoxy flake floors in:

  • Residential garages
  • Basements
  • Mudrooms or utility rooms
  • Commercial kitchens and workshops
  • Showrooms and auto shops
  • Pet care facilities and kennels

Wherever durability and easy maintenance matter, epoxy flake is a solid choice.

Why Choose Epoxy Garage Coating?

Choosing an epoxy garage coating is about more than just a sleek finish — it’s an investment in the longevity, safety, and cleanliness of your space. Here’s why so many homeowners and property managers choose this system for their garage floors:

✓ Resistant to Hot Tire Pickup, Oil, Salt, and Water

Garage floors take a beating — from hot tires, leaking motor oil, road salt in winter, and even moisture rising from the concrete. An epoxy flake system forms a strong, sealed surface that resists these common threats. It doesn’t soften under hot tires or stain from automotive fluids, making it ideal for real, everyday use.

✓ Easy to Clean and Maintain

One of the biggest advantages of epoxy garage flooring is how effortlessly it stays clean. Unlike unfinished concrete, which is porous and tends to absorb spills, dust, and moisture, an epoxy flake surface is fully sealed and smooth. That means no more dealing with concrete dust, oil stains, or grime that soaks in and stays.

Routine cleaning is simple: sweep away dry debris, and for deeper cleaning, just mop with warm water or lightly hose down the surface. There’s no need for harsh chemicals, strong degreasers, or specialized cleaners. In most cases, mild soap and water is more than enough to keep your floor looking clean and polished. The surface is highly resistant to common garage messes — like oil, brake fluid, and road salt — so these substances can be easily wiped up before they cause stains or damage.

💡 And to further enhance resistance and longevity, we help our clients choose the right protective topcoat. Whether you need extra chemical resistance, a high-gloss finish, or added texture for slip-resistance — we’ll recommend the best option for your garage and how you plan to use it.

That’s what makes our epoxy garage coatings ideal for homeowners who want a clean, long-lasting, and low-maintenance garage without the fuss.

✓ Decorative and Fully Customizable

With endless flake color combinations and finishes, epoxy flake flooring can match your style or complement your car, home, or workspace. Whether you want a subtle gray blend or a bold, high-contrast flake look, your garage floor can be both functional and beautiful.

✓ Clean, Professional Garage Appearance

Let’s face it — raw concrete looks unfinished and can make your garage feel like a dark, dusty storage room. But with epoxy flake coating, the transformation is instant. The floor takes on a polished, clean look — more like a showroom or professional workshop than a typical garage.

This upgrade doesn’t just improve aesthetics — it changes how you use the space. A well-coated floor makes the garage feel like a true extension of the home, whether you’re parking your car, using it as a home gym, or setting up storage shelves and tools.

And if your garage functions more like a storage room or utility space? Epoxy flake is still a perfect fit. It helps keep dust down, makes cleaning easy, and provides a durable, protective surface that stands up to heavy use, boxes, foot traffic, and moisture.
With minimal maintenance and maximum impact, this system turns even the most basic garage into a space you actually enjoy walking into.

✓ Protects the Concrete Underneath

Garage floors experience constant wear — from tools, vehicle traffic, water, and temperature swings. Over time, bare concrete cracks, chips, or erodes. Epoxy flake systems act as a protective barrier, extending the life of the slab by sealing it from moisture, chemicals, and abrasion.
