FAQ's

Here Are A Few Of Our Commonly Asked Questions…

  1. Enhanced Durability: Concrete coatings provide a protective layer that shields concrete from moisture, salt damage, road chemicals. This can extend the lifespan of your garage floor and prevent spalling and other forms of deterioration.

  2. Improved Appearance: A concrete coating can significantly enhance the aesthetic appeal of your garage floor. You can choose from a wide range of colors, patterns, and textures to achieve the desired look.

  3. Easier Maintenance: Coatings create a smooth and non-porous surface that is easy to clean and maintain. Spills, stains, and dirt can be quickly wiped away without penetrating the concrete. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping are usually sufficient to keep the floor in good condition.

  4. Chemical Resistance: Our concrete coatings have excellent resistance to chemicals, such as oil, gasoline, solvents, and household cleaners. This is particularly beneficial in garages where these substances are commonly encountered. The coating acts as a barrier, preventing the chemicals from seeping into the concrete and causing damage.

  5. Increased Safety: Our garage floor coating can improve the safety of your garage floor by adding a textured or non-slip surface. This can reduce the risk of accidents caused by slipping or falling, especially in areas prone to snow melt and water on the garage floor.

  6. Dust Reduction: Uncoated concrete tends to produce dust, which can be a nuisance in a garage. Coating your garage floor can minimize dusting, creating a cleaner and healthier environment.

The garage floor coating process typically takes two days to complete. This duration allows for proper preparation, application, and curing of the coating to ensure optimal results. We recommend that you follow a one, two, three day rule for return to service eg. first day after installation you can walk on the floor, the second day you can return your garage items into the garage,
and you can drive in your automobiles on the third day.

  2. Reputation – We’re known across the Twin Cities for doing quality work. In fact, nearly 20% of our business is either repeat business, or referral-based. The reason for this? Being available. Standing behind our products. If there’s an issue, we take care of it, and we’re fair at all points in time.

  3. Quality – If you review our concrete coating installation page you’ll learn about our no-shortcut methodology to concrete floor coatings. Not to be confused with an epoxy floor covering, we’re proving a resinous flooring system that offers the best possible characteristics for your garage floor. Yes, we use epoxy, but our combination of professional concrete surface preparation, our epoxy base coat, 100% broadcast flakes and the best polyaspartic urethane topcoat, makes our floor coating the best, more reliable and most durable garage floors in the Twin Cities.

Yes, our garage floor coatings are known for their excellent resistance to chemicals and spills commonly found in garages. Epoxy coatings create a strong and durable barrier on the concrete surface, offering protection against various substances such as oil, gasoline, solvents, household cleaners, and other chemicals that can potentially damage the floor.

While our garage floor coating provides excellent resistance, it is still recommended to clean up spills promptly to maintain the longevity and appearance of the concrete coating. Regular maintenance, such as sweeping and occasional mopping, will help preserve the protective qualities of the epoxy coating and ensure its effectiveness in safeguarding your garage floor against chemicals and spills.

  1. Regular Sweeping: Use a broom or dust mop to remove loose dirt, debris, and dust from the surface of your coated garage floor. Regular sweeping will help prevent scratches and maintain its appearance.

  2. Gentle Cleaning: For routine cleaning, mild soap or a pH-neutral cleaner mixed with warm water can be used. Avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners that may damage the coating. Apply the cleaning solution to the floor and scrub gently with a soft-bristle brush or mop. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow the floor to air dry.

  3. Spill Cleanup: Promptly clean up any spills on your coated garage floor. Wipe them away with a cloth or paper towel to prevent stains or potential damage to the coating. Avoid using acidic or corrosive substances that may harm the coating.

  4. Tire Marks and Stains: Tire marks and stubborn stains can be removed using a specialized garage floor cleaner or a mild degreaser. Follow the product instructions and test in a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire floor. Scrub gently with a brush or mop and rinse thoroughly.

A concrete floor treated with a resinous flooring system can have a significantly extended lifespan compared to untreated concrete. The exact duration of your garage floor coating lifespan can vary depending on several factors, including the type of resin used, the quality of installation, the level of maintenance, and the specific conditions your garage floor is exposed to.

However, with proper installation and maintenance, a well-applied resinous flooring system can typically last anywhere from 10 to 20 years or even longer.

This is why choosing the right garage floor coating company is so important. 

Retail epoxy coatings can be suitable for certain small-scale projects or temporary improvements. However, higher-quality standards, and long-lasting performance, requires a professional floor coating company and our resinous flooring system offers a superior solution.

By choosing our resinous flooring system, you’ll benefit from professional-grade materials, customized options, expert concrete floor coating installation, long-term durability, and additional support through our 10-year warranty. The end result for our customers is an exceptional flooring solution that surpasses the capabilities of off-the-shelf epoxy floor coatings typically found at retail stores like Home Depot, Lowe’s or Menards.
