A garage floor in Franktown takes a beating year round. Road salt and de-icing chemicals tracked in during Douglas County winters are among the most aggressive substances that can be applied to bare concrete, and they work at it month after month. Add in oil drips, tire scuffing, and the general hard use that comes with an active Colorado lifestyle, and you have a floor that needs a durable protective coating that can actually stand up to the conditions.
Denver Stucco & Stone installs commercial-grade epoxy floor coatings in Franktown with a focus on the factor that determines whether a coating lasts or peels: surface preparation. A coating is only as good as its bond to the substrate, and that bond depends entirely on how well the concrete was prepared before the epoxy went down.
The overwhelming majority of epoxy flooring failures come down to inadequate surface preparation. Concrete must be mechanically ground to open the surface and give the epoxy something to bond to. Contaminants including oil, grease, and previous coatings must be fully removed. Moisture vapor transmission from the slab must be assessed and addressed. We do not skip these steps because they are not optional. The prep work is what separates a coating that still looks great five years from now from one that starts peeling in its first Franktown winter.
Concrete Assessment and Preparation
We inspect the slab, test for moisture, address any cracks or damage, and mechanically grind the surface to the correct profile for proper adhesion.
Primer and Base Coat Application
A penetrating primer maximizes bond strength. The base coat epoxy is then applied at the correct thickness.
Decorative Broadcast if Selected
Color flake or chip broadcast is applied into the wet base coat for homeowners who want a decorative finish.
Topcoat Application
A clear polyurea or polyaspartic topcoat provides UV stability, chemical resistance, and surface hardness for daily use.
