The garage can be known for many things. However it is pretty rare that a garage would be known for having an amazing floor. Most garages are dirty, smelly, and they often have oil/grease spots all over them. However there are some homeowners that choose to revamp the look of their garage and they typically start with the floor. There are many different options available for garage flooring but we think we have the best application on the market. Our vinyl chip epoxy floor is cost effective, long lasting, easily cleaned, and comes in a variety of colors. While there are several "epoxy floor kits" available from home improvement stores, none of these kits will compare to ours. Our flooring is installed with commercial grade, non-diluted, Stone Bond epoxy. Many of the DIY epoxy floor kits available in local home improvement stores are not commercial grade and their epoxy is water based. This leads to a weaker bond and and a much weaker epoxy. Additionally, our chips come in a variety of colors and they are all 100% vinyl. By using vinyl chips, instead of paint chips, we are able to safeguard against color loss and prevent the long term degradation of the chips themselves. Here is a quick look at a garage floor we recently completed in the Hickory NC area. If you would like more information regarding our epoxy chip floors or any of our other products, please contact us here or call 828-256-7915. The garage floor has been power washed and now our team begins scraping the surface to remove any loose material. Any holes, cracks, or divots in the existing floor are covered and smoothed with epoxy. This ensures the imperfections do not transfer into the new chip floor. Stone Bond Epoxy is then rolled onto the garage floor. This is the base coat that will allow the vinyl chips to adhere to the concrete. Next, vinyl chips are applied using a hopper gun. This ensures the floor is evenly covered with vinyl chips. The garage floor overhaul is beginning to take shape! Once the floor is completely covered in chips, we allow the epoxy to dry overnight. After the floor has dried, the chips are then scraped and the floor is vacuumed. Scraping will remove any loose chips and it will also keep the floor from having any sharp or obtuse spots. This leads to the final step... Last, we apply a top coat of Stone Bond epoxy. This top coat will add strength to the floor and it will also add a "wet" sheen. As you can see, the garage floor is smooth and 100% overhauled. You can have a floor just like this one in your garage. Call us today to schedule your free estimate!

The second advantage of installing an epoxy chip floor coating system in your garage is that it will help the space gain a whole new level of resistance. The epoxy can block all potentially dangerous components that are known to exist in such a high traffic area. The floor is quite durable.

To create the right mechanical bond, most epoxy flooring requires little profile preparation such as CSP2 or grinding. Contractors typically use a shrouded concrete grinder to maintain a correct concrete surface profile (CSP 2 or 3). Shot blasting the concrete may be the only option on exceptional occasions. The polluted concrete flooring are an example of this. Even if the concrete has been properly prepared, pollutants like fatty acids (from frying), silicone, siloxane, and acrylics can penetrate deeply enough to cause problems with coating adhesion.

The installation of an epoxy chip floor coating system in your garage will also help the space gain a whole new degree of resistance, which is the second advantage. All potentially dangerous components that are known to exist in such a heavy traffic location can be blocked by the epoxy. The floor is quite resilient.

It's interesting to know that epoxy flooring coating would be able to cover any hole, crack, or divot. With that in mind, I will suggest this to my husband because our garage floor is quite damaged. The property has been erected two decades ago, so this is a helpful option for us to get the property looking new again.

I like how you mentioned that using chips could prevent having floor damage from different causes. My uncle mentioned the other night that he was planning to have an epoxy garage floor due to its durability, and he asked if I had any idea what would be the best option to do. Thanks to this informative article, I'll be sure to tell him that it will be much better if they consult epoxy garage flooring services as they can answer all their inquiries and will provide good-quality service.

I want to get some nice flooring for my garage. It makes sense that getting the right epoxy flooring would be beneficial! It's nice that epoxy coated floors can help avoid oil stains. I'm planning on doing oil changes in my garage, so that would be relevant.

It got me when you said that epoxy flooring will last for a long time, is low maintenance, affordable, and would have other colors as well. In that case, it has helped me decide to choose to hire an epoxy garage flooring contractor to work on our property next month. It would be worth it to invest in that material if I know that it will be able to last for a long time due to its durability.

Thank you for pointing out that many of the DIY epoxy floor kits sold at nearby home improvement stores are water-based and of low quality. I wish to renovate my home, particularly the floor. I'll hire an epoxy garage flooring contractor to assist me with my remodel.

It captured me the most when you mentioned that a top coat can provide additional strength to the floor. My friend wants epoxy line marking for their warehouse floor. I should advise him to hire an expert in warehouse floor epoxy line marking to ensure quality work.

Unlike other personality profiles, The Color personality test not only identifies what you do but why you do it, allowing you to gain much deeper and more useful insights into what makes you and those around you tick. The Color Personality test is unique for several reasons. First, it goes deeper than mere personality – it identifies Motive – why you do what you do. Secondly, the Color personality test is easy to use and implement. Rather than having to memorize a string of letters or numbers like some profiles, the Color personality test uses colors to represent Driving Core Motives. The comment we hear most frequently is how easy the Color personality test is to put into practice.

This epoxy chip flooring transformation is impressive! The level of preparation and attention to detail, from surface prep to the final top coat, really showcases the importance of professional installation. We especially appreciate the use of commercial-grade epoxy and vinyl chips for durability and long-term performance. A well-finished garage floor not only enhances aesthetics but also improves functionality and ease of maintenance. Great work on this project—it’s inspiring to see such a thorough approach to flooring solutions!
