Lifetime Warranty Garage Flooring in Gastonia

In Gastonia, NC, a homeowner recently upgraded their two-car garage with an epoxy flooring installation. This blog post covers the details of the project from start to finish, focusing on the steps involved and the benefits of the chosen materials.


Initial Condition and Preparation

The garage floor had typical wear and tear: stains, minor cracks, and general deterioration from regular use. The first step in the installation process was to repair these imperfections. The team filled cracks and ground the surface to ensure the epoxy would adhere properly and look uniform.


Applying the Moisture Vapor Barrier Epoxy

Given North Carolina's humid climate, and moisture-retaining clay soil, installing a moisture vapor barrier was essential. This barrier prevents moisture from seeping up from beneath the garage slab, which can damage the floor over time and push the coating off. This layer is particularly important in ensuring the longevity of the flooring.


Choosing "Tuxedo" Flake Blend

After the moisture barrier, the team applied a full broadcast of vinyl flakes in the "Tuxedo" blend. This blend of black, gray, and white flakes was selected for its neutral, clean appearance, which complements any garage setting. The flakes also help hide dirt and minor surface damage, making the garage easier to maintain.


Benefits of the Polyaspartic Topcoat

The final layer was a polyaspartic topcoat. This material is chosen for its superior durability and UV stability. It protects the epoxy and flake layers from chemicals, abrasion, and UV damage, and makes the surface easy to clean. The quick curing time allowed the homeowner to use the garage to return to service the following day.
