This is where you might park your car, use power tools, carry and move around heavy objects, and where all sorts of chemicals and oils are often spilled.

Only two main floor types are suitable for garage spaces because general flooring solutions such as hardwood, tiles, and laminates just won’t make the cut. Polished concrete and epoxy flooring are your two main options, and out of these two solutions, epoxy is probably the best option for all the following reasons.

Reasons Why Epoxy Flooring Is The Best Choice For Your Garage

Durable And Strong

Epoxy flooring is incredibly durable and strong. These floors will stay in great shape for 10 – 20 years and will offer good resistance or protection from various elements like the following.

Stains – These floors form a smooth waterproof seal over the existing porous concrete. This coating acts as a protective barrier so no moisture or oils can be absorbed into the concrete materials. Epoxy is highly resilient and won’t stain even if you spill oil, gasoline, antifreeze, or other chemicals on the floor’s surface.

Enhanced Aesthetics

In these modern times, there is absolutely no reason your garage space cannot be stylish. Epoxy flooring is absolutely stunning with its smooth appearance and shiny luster. This coating is bound to make any space look much cleaner and can make rooms look lighter and bigger. There are also many different style options to choose from when you get these floors installed. With a gorgeous floor, your vehicle and work area will look so much more inviting and you will be much more likely to spend a lot more time working on hobbies and other projects. Not to mention this will add value to your house.

Cost-Effective

Epoxy coating is quite affordable compared to other garage or industrial flooring solutions. Unlike polished concrete, these floors don’t require days of honing and buffing to install which makes them significantly more affordable. To top it off, these floors also require hardly any maintenance at all which also keeps your costs low.

Quick To Install

With epoxy, you don’t have to worry too much about the inconvenience of the installation. These floors are pretty quick to install and the process isn’t messy at all. Garage flooring projects can take about 3-4 days to install and fully cure after which you can move back in and get back to work. 

Easy To Clean And Care For

These floors with their smooth hard surface won’t absorb any liquids or chemicals that might cause discolouring and there isn’t much that can cling to the smooth surface of these floors. All you really need for keeping these floors in great shape is regular vacuuming or sweeping and mopping. Spills on the floor surface should be easy to wipe away with the help of a mild soap and there is no need to polish these floors. 

If you want to upgrade your garage or install a floor that is easy to maintain and highly durable then you should give BetterSeal a call. These professionals can install a beautiful epoxy floor for you within just a couple of days.

That is why for the many clients who don’t know how epoxy flooring is applied,

We have broken down a guide to how we install the strong and durable material to your floor.

Step 1: Floor/Site Preparation

  • Prepare the floor and ensure there are no other floor coatings on it. Epoxy doesn’t work well with other coatings, so they will have to be removed before the application.
  • Clean the floor to its immaculate best. Ensure there are no dirt, rubber marks and skits, or oil stains left. Wash it over plenty of times and wait until it is dry.

Step 2: Level the Concrete

  • Shot blast the concrete floor to create a rough surface that will allow the epoxy coating to go deep within the concrete.

  • Grind the concrete floor and level out any holes, bumps, and cracks to guarantee an easier application.

  • Patch up any holes to complete a flat surface

Step 3: Begin the Epoxy Application

  • The first layer of epoxy is applied, which is called the epoxy primer. It is applied just like regular paint and need several hours to dry and settle.

Step 4: Epoxy Installation

  • Once the primer has dried up, it is time lay out and applied the epoxy finisher, depending on the type of epoxy coating you want. Check out the types of epoxy coatings that we offer.

  • This is a slow burning process to ensure that all the finisher is equally and effectively applied.

  • It is here that you can apply the type of flooring you want. Check out the types of epoxy floorings we offer.

  • Wait for several hours for the epoxy finisher to dry up and settle.

Step 5: Top Coating

  • After the drying is completed, the floor is brushed and swept to guarantee a smooth finish.

  • A final top coating is applied to create a shiny and solid look.

The Artistic:

The process involves the application procedure that all other epoxy floors have. The only difference is that you can use a host of different colours to create any floor colour combination that you want.

The Flakes:

Epoxy flakes are small, tiny pieces that are spread across the floor, giving them a stylish and different look. You can mix and match with a host of different colours for both the floor and the flakes.

The Designer:

This type of coating will make your floor look like a shiny mirror. It will bring out the best in your workplace through this mirror-like influence.

The Grind & Seal:

The most common process and choice. This process involves grinding down the concrete floor and applying a few layers of epoxy on the surface. Very common because it can transform your ugly old floor to a brand new one.

The Garage/Warehouse Set:

More layers are applied in this process to ensure longer-lasting wear and tear. This floor is best for garages and warehouses that face plenty of consistent high level vehicle and foot traffic. This will make it last longer, as well make it safer.

The Safety Net:

Adding safety lines and markings, this type of floor is great for workplaces that want to make it safe for workers. They can painted and aligned in any way you want, and in bright colours too, to ensure clear visibility.
