What a Shop Floor Coating Includes

A shop floor coating is a seamless epoxy surface over diamond-ground concrete. It is finished in decorative acrylic flake or a solid color, and sealed with a UV-stable clear topcoat.

  • Home workshops and detached shops
  • Mechanic bays and service bays
  • Working shop floors of any size

Stands up to motor oil, hydraulic fluid, solvents, gasoline, and other harsh chemicals that are part of everyday shop life. Resists dropped tools, rolling tool chests and car lifts.

The crew can work around existing equipment. The install can be phased so part of the shop keeps running.

Crack & Joint Repair

All cracks, pitting, and expansion joints are filled with flexible epoxy joint filler to create a smooth, seamless base.

Floors in attached home garages are covered on the garage floor coatings page. Dealerships, warehouses and other business floors are on the commercial floor coatings page. Pick a blend on the flake color chart.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a shop coating different from a garage coating?

Shop floors see heavier use. The system uses thicker base coats, with optional anti-slip aggregate near lifts and fluid areas.

Can you work around equipment and lifts?

Yes. We can work around existing equipment and phase the install to keep part of the shop running.

How long does a shop floor coating take?

Installation takes 1-2 days. The floor is ready for equipment in 24-48 hours.

Will it hold up to lifts and heavy machinery?

Epoxy is rated for heavy point loads, including car lifts and heavy machinery.

Can you coat a floor with oil stains?

Diamond grinding removes surface contamination. Specialized primer is used for deeply penetrated oil.
