Epoxy Flooring Park Ridge

Epoxy flooring in Park Ridge, including older detached garages, built on a properly ground slab by our own crew.

Can older Park Ridge slabs be coated in epoxy?

Yes, and the preparation is what makes it work. We diamond-grind the slab open down to sound concrete, taking off old paint, coatings, stains and dirt, then repair cracks, holes and imperfections. A primer that fuses into the concrete follows, so the coating bonds instead of peeling, then a base coat, your finish and a polyaspartic topcoat that is abrasion-resistant and does not yellow.

A detached alley garage often has a slab poured decades ago that has never been coated. Epoxy is seamless and non-porous, so road salt, oil and meltwater stay on top and wipe off, and it protects the slab from moisture and water damage. It is cost-effective next to replacing the floor, it has low odor, and it goes on the slab you have. The topcoat is UV-stable and glossy, and an anti-slip additive is available if you want more grip. Done well, it can still look good 15 to 20 years on.

Picking the finish for an older Park Ridge floor

Epoxy flake leads on an older slab. The broadcast flakes and orange-peel texture give grip underfoot and hide the small imperfections that age leaves behind. Flake sizes and color blends vary, so you can choose a blend that suits the building, and flake can be refreshed later with a new topcoat, with damaged areas re-flaked.

Metallic epoxy usually goes indoors in Park Ridge homes: a basement, a sun room or a converted rear room. A poured floor runs wall to wall without seams, and the finish looks different under each room's light, so we talk it through in the room. Pearl, bronze, graphite and custom blends are available, and the high-gloss finish reads like stone or water.

Solid color epoxy is the plain choice for a workshop garage, an even color that brightens a dim bay, with an anti-slip additive available on request. It is cost-effective and cleans with soap and water, with no stripping or waxing.
