Frequently Asked Questions

How long does this process require?

For the typical one, two or three car garage, the entire process only requires only 1.5 days. If extensive spalling or cracks are present, an additional day may be required. Some floor coating systems require an additional day, but the decorative chip/flake (which is the most common system for a residential garage floor coating) does not.

How long until I can use the garage again?

Under most conditions, pedestrian traffic can return within 12 hours and vehicular traffic can return in 24 hours after completion. Our staff will be happy to provide specific date and time based upon the system installed and current weather conditions.

If I’m getting my garage done in the winter, do I have to heat the garage?

No. The customer does not have to provide any heat or cooling to the garage. Our garage floor coatings may be applied year round in a wide range of temperatures. Unlike epoxy paint kits, our garage floor coatings do not require a heated room or warm surface.

If you floor does have radiant heat, we will work with you to set the appropriate temperature during the coatings process.

Is this a dusty or messy process?

During the surface preparation, we utilize special vacuum systems to collect the concrete dust and debris. While our staff vacuums several times during the process, trace amounts of dust or the decorative chips may be found on top of window sills or doors.

Why don’t you acid etch the concrete prior to coating?

Preparing a concrete surface using the acid etching process is messy, dangerous and often ineffective. While this process is typically used by the Do-It-Yourself epoxy paint kits, all reputable and experienced floor coating companies will prepare the concrete with a mechanical form of surface abrasion, such as diamond grinding or shotblasting.

Diamond grinding is the most effective and productive form of surface preparation for a residential garage floor. It is how our teams will prepare your garage.

What if my garage floor has sealer on it?

No problem. Our surface grinding equipment can cut through sealers, garage floor paint kits and overlays. More often than not, we are removing some former, failed attempt to protect or enhance the concrete.

Our installation teams have a tremendous amount of experience in all types of removals. We have completed projects where our installers removed over 10 layers of paint that was applied over a 50 year period. Even sticky, uncured DIY kits can easily be removed.

What if I have a garage floor covering system?

Plastic tiles? Garage Floor mats? Just remove them several days prior to the arrival of our coatings team. It allows the concrete to properly air out and dry. Often, garage floor coverings trap moisture and can even create odor and mold issues. There may be a odor after removing the floor coverings, but that odor will not be an issues after we install our coatings.
