Concrete Coatings for Residential Garages

If you’re a homeowner near Cypress, Texas, then it’s highly possible you have a garage somewhere on your property. Maybe you have an attached garage that you use to protect your vehicle every day. Perhaps you have a detached garage that you’re using as a workshop. Maybe you converted a building, such as a barn, into a storage area for your farm or ranch vehicles.

Regardless of what type of residential garage you may have, protecting the concrete and creating a stable surface for regular use is essential. That’s where we can help. At Resilient Concrete Coatings, we specialize in creating and applying durable, stunning, and useful concrete coatings.

Garages are often busy places, so there are many reasons that you may need a durable concrete coating to protect the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

Common Leaks and Spills

If you’re using your garage to park your vehicles, you may bring in things from being on the road. For example, you might pick up dust, dirt, oils, and road grime, especially on rainy days. This mixture can drip off your vehicle and slowly damage a concrete surface, leading to cracks, divots, and other damage. Similarly, oils and fuel can damage concrete if it's exposed regularly, leading to the same types of damage.

If you’re using your garage space as a workshop, you might not have to worry about bringing in debris and liquids from outside, but instead, other spills and mishaps from the work or hobbies you do there. While concrete can somewhat resist many spills, it is porous and can still be damaged over time from different things interacting with the materials that form it.

Heavy Traffic from People and Vehicles

If you’re relying on just the concrete to hold up to regular traffic from you or your vehicles, it’s important to know that it does wear down over time, which can lead to cracks, divots, and other damage. The weight of vehicles, or the consistency of walking in the same area every time you’re in your garage, picks off small pieces of concrete each time, which might not be noticeable immediately, but makes a difference over time, especially at the edges of your garage where the door is.

Cleaning

One of the best ways to protect your concrete flooring and the coatings we provide is to clean the surface. As we mentioned before, concrete is porous, which allows liquids and other debris to build up in it and wear it away faster. This also makes the concrete hard to clean if you do spill something on it, even though it’s the best material for the foundation of your garage floor.

We Recommend Our Flake Coating System as Your Concrete Coating Solution

Our flake coating system is our recommendation for residential garage floors. In it, we create layers of material to adhere to your concrete, protect it from the sun, liquids, and other spills, and make it resistant to many types of incidental damage, such as the weight of vehicles or the demands of regular foot traffic. With this flooring system, we create a non-porous surface that keeps liquids from penetrating your concrete and is easy to clean, meaning you can get to spills without worrying about it seeping down and damaging your concrete.

When we install your flake coating system, we apply:

• A layer of epoxy to adhere to your concrete.
• A flake broadcast to create texture.
• A layer of polyaspartic to protect the layers beneath it.
