If you’re looking for a more durable solution for your garage floor, consider epoxy or polyaspartic coatings.
Epoxy and polyaspartic coatings are well known in the industry for being durable, long-lasting, safe, and beautiful.
For safety reasons, epoxy and polyaspartic floors should be installed with anti-slip additives so they aren’t slippery when wet. At SUNDEK of Austin, safety is a priority, so we always make sure to include additives and texture the surface in a way that makes the surface slip resistant.
You’ve probably seen epoxy paint at the hardware store. If you want an epoxy floor for your garage, it’s important to know that painting your floor with epoxy paint will not provide the same protection and overall quality that an epoxy coating will provide. Read about the differences between epoxy paint and epoxy coatings here.
If your garage floor is damaged, a contractor should assess your existing surface to determine if the concrete is still viable. As long as you don’t have exceptional damage that diminishes the integrity of the surface (for example, significantly wide or deep cracks), the contractor should be able to repair and resurface it.
A reputable contractor such as SUNDEK of Austin who has experience with concrete repair is your best bet. In addition to being able to fix the damage before applying your new coating, they should be able to help you take steps to prevent the damge from happening again.
Here are some of the common ways garage floors become damaged:
It’s important to know that the quality of product you get in a DIY epoxy kit is not the same level of quality you get when working with a professional-grade epoxy product such as the options available with SUNDEK’s line. Additionally, epoxying your garage floor requires painstaking attention at each step.
The surface preparation alone is a critical step. If your surface is not properly cleaned and stripped of contaminants, the quality of your epoxy or polyaspartic floor will be compromised. We highly recommend hiring a professional such as SUNDEK of Austin to avoid common pitfalls such as bubbling or improper curing.
We have several products to choose from depending on the type of job.
