Why You Should Use
Garage Floor Epoxy
Garage floor epoxies are one of the leading flooring systems across the entire United States and this didn’t happen on accident. Garage epoxy is able to provide benefits that won’t only make your garage better to look at, but can also drastically improve performance and safety as well. Here is why the garage epoxies are becoming one of the most common flooring systems in the country:
Increased Safety
Heres how our epoxies can make your garage safer to work and walk in:
- Epoxy flooring, in general, is able to provide a surface that offers amazing traction when dry, but just like other floorings, the surface can become slippery when wet. This is why we recommend our silica sand additive that gives the epoxy subtle texture for traction when wet or soiled
- The garage epoxy coating is also able to make the garage up to 300 percent brighter without having to add more lighting sources. Not only will the increased brightness keep you safe, but the reflectivity will also save you money on your power bill
Chemical Resistance
The garage is an area that we use and store chemicals on a daily basis so here’s how epoxy can help defend against accidents:
- A garage epoxy coating is able to resist all damage from harsh chemicals ranging from gasoline to battery acid thanks to it nonporous finish
- With this nonporous finish, epoxy is able to isolate all chemicals and moisture on its surface for both easy cleanup and disposal
- Another benefit of the nonporous finish of epoxy is that the chemical will never make contact with the absorbent concrete slab, removing the possibility of concrete or even environmental damage
Investment Factor
Heres how garage epoxy floors can help protect and improve the investment in your home:
- Garage floor epoxy has an incredibly long service life of 20-30 years when the system is properly maintained. Not only can the flooring last decades, but it also has a cheaper lifecycle cost than flooring systems such as traditional concrete
- Along with the long lifespan of garage epoxy, concrete slabs equipped with epoxy can last decades longer than a bare concrete floor
- Homes with an epoxy garage floor are also much more desirable when on the market and can even increase the value of your home by thousands
Improved Durability
One of the most widely known benefits of garage floor epoxy is the durability of the system so here’s what our epoxy is capable of:
- Epoxy flooring has been tested and proven to make any concrete slab it is placed on up to 150% percent stronger and last an average of 2-3 times longer than bare concrete.
- For example, garage floor epoxy can offer a weight tolerance of up to 25,000 PSI where concrete is only able to offer a measly allowance of only 3,500 PSI
- With the addition to the extreme weight tolerance of an epoxy garage floor, the flooring solution is capable of withstanding damage from dropped objects, heavy machine usage, and even heavy foot/vehicle traffic
Unlimited Customization
One of the benefits of garage epoxy that our clients love is the customization of the flooring system so here’s what you can do with epoxy:
- Epoxy flooring offers a wide range of customization ranging from the wide selection of base colors, options to use single colored or multi-colored flakes, and even the ability to use metallic pigments to create a metallic epoxy garage floor
- For our neighbors in Cedar Rapids that are enthusiasts, we offer you the ability to have your favorite brands or sports teams logo installed directly into your epoxy in any orientation you desire
- For our commercial garage owners or organized homeowners, we offer stencils to create text, barriers and even make sections with your epoxy floor
