You’ll walk into your garage and see a floor that looks like it belongs in a showroom, not a storage shed. No more salt stains spreading across cracked concrete every winter. No more oil spots that won’t come out no matter what you try.
The transformation happens in one day, but the results last decades. Your new floor repels everything Connecticut weather throws at it – road salt, moisture, chemicals, and heavy traffic. Cleaning becomes as simple as hosing it down or running a mop across the surface.
Most importantly, you get your garage back as functional space. Whether you’re parking your car, working on projects, or just need somewhere that doesn’t look like a concrete bunker, your new floor handles it all while looking sharp year after year.
We’ve been serving Connecticut homeowners for years, and we understand what your floors go through here. We’ve seen the salt damage, the freeze-thaw cycles, and the way coastal moisture affects concrete in communities like Noank.
As a veteran-owned business, we approach every job with the same attention to detail and commitment to quality that served us well in the military. We don’t cut corners, we don’t rush the process, and we don’t leave until the job meets our standards and yours.
Living in Noank means you appreciate quality and craftsmanship – the same values that built those historic homes along Main Street. We bring that same level of care to your garage floor, using only the best materials and proven processes that stand up to everything Connecticut can dish out.
We start by properly preparing your concrete surface – this step makes or breaks the entire project. We grind, clean, and profile the concrete to ensure our coating bonds permanently, not just sits on top waiting to peel off in a few years.
Next comes the moisture mitigation primer, especially important in coastal areas like Noank where humidity and ground moisture can cause problems. This creates a barrier that prevents moisture from undermining the coating from below.
Then we apply the base coat and any decorative elements you’ve chosen – whether that’s color flakes for texture and style, or a solid color for a clean, professional look. Finally, we finish with a polyaspartic topcoat that provides superior UV and scratch resistance.
The entire process typically takes one day, and you can walk on your new floor within 24 hours. Your garage is back in service within 72 hours, but your floor will look great for the next 20+ years.

Your new floor coating isn’t just about looks – it’s engineered specifically for what Connecticut homeowners deal with. Road salt that would eat away at bare concrete just wipes right off. Oil changes, brake fluid spills, and antifreeze drips clean up without leaving permanent stains.
In Noank’s coastal environment, you deal with extra moisture and salt air that can accelerate concrete deterioration. Our polyaspartic coatings create a completely nonporous surface that moisture and salt can’t penetrate. This is especially important given that 25% of Noank properties face flood risk – when water does get in your garage, it won’t soak into your floor and cause damage.
The coating system we use is three times harder than conventional epoxy, which matters when you’re parking vehicles daily and potentially dealing with the heavy equipment that comes with waterfront living. Whether you’re storing boats, trailers, or just want a garage that matches the quality of your $730K+ Noank home, the durability is there.
We also understand that in a community that values preserving character and appearance, your garage floor should enhance your property value, not detract from it.
A professionally installed polyaspartic epoxy coating will typically last 20+ years in Connecticut conditions, including harsh winters with road salt exposure. The key is proper installation with moisture mitigation and using high-grade materials designed for freeze-thaw cycles.
Unlike DIY kits from big box stores that start peeling within 18 months, professional-grade coatings bond permanently to the concrete and resist the expansion and contraction that happens with temperature changes. We’ve seen properly installed floors in Connecticut that still look great after two decades of winter abuse.
The longevity depends on using the right coating system for your specific situation – thicker applications for heavy vehicle traffic, proper surface preparation, and quality materials that can handle both the salt and the temperature swings we get here.
High-quality epoxy and polyaspartic coatings are specifically designed to resist road salt damage. The salt that would normally eat away at bare concrete and cause scaling, pitting, and staining just sits on the surface where you can easily clean it off.
The coating creates a nonporous barrier that prevents salt and moisture from penetrating into the concrete below. This is crucial in Connecticut where road salt is used heavily from December through March. Without protection, that salt mixed with moisture gets into concrete cracks, freezes, expands, and creates bigger problems every winter.
Regular maintenance during winter – basically hosing or mopping up salt residue when you notice it – keeps your floor looking new. The coating itself won’t be damaged by salt exposure, but cleaning it off prevents buildup and keeps your garage looking sharp.
Yes, we can install coating systems over concrete that has existing damage like cracks, pitting, or staining. However, proper preparation is crucial for long-term success. We evaluate each floor individually to determine the best approach.
For minor cracks and surface damage, we can grind, fill, and level the surface before applying the coating system. For more significant damage, we might recommend additional steps like crack injection or patching compounds to create a stable base.
The goal is to address the underlying issues that caused the damage in the first place – usually moisture infiltration or inadequate protection from salt and chemicals. Once we’ve properly prepared the surface and applied the right coating system, your floor will be protected from further damage and look better than it has in years.
Polyaspartic coatings are significantly more durable than traditional epoxy – typically about 20 times stronger and more chemically resistant. They also cure much faster, allowing us to complete most installations in one day versus the 3-4 days required for epoxy systems.
Polyaspartic coatings also have superior UV resistance, which matters if your garage gets sunlight exposure. They won’t yellow or fade over time like some epoxy systems can. The faster cure time also means they can be applied in a wider range of temperatures, giving us more flexibility in scheduling your project.
For Connecticut conditions specifically, polyaspartic coatings handle freeze-thaw cycles better and provide superior protection against road salt and moisture. While they cost slightly more upfront, the increased durability and performance make them the better long-term investment for most homeowners.
Proper surface preparation is the most critical step and what separates professional installations from DIY failures. We start by grinding the concrete surface to remove any existing sealers, paint, or surface contaminants, and to create the proper profile for coating adhesion.
Next, we thoroughly clean the surface and check for moisture issues – especially important in coastal areas like Noank. If needed, we apply a moisture mitigation primer to prevent problems down the road. Any cracks or significant imperfections are filled and leveled at this stage.
The concrete must be completely clean and dry before we apply any coatings. We use industrial equipment and proven processes, not the basic etching methods that come with retail kits. This preparation work takes most of the day, but it’s what ensures your coating bonds permanently and lasts for decades rather than peeling off in a few years.
Maintenance is minimal, which is one of the main benefits of professional coating systems. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping with mild soap and water is usually sufficient to keep your floor looking new.
During winter months in Connecticut, rinse or mop up road salt when you notice buildup – not because the coating can’t handle it, but to prevent accumulation and keep your garage looking clean. The nonporous surface means spills and stains don’t penetrate, so cleanup is quick and easy.
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that aren’t necessary and might dull the finish over time. For deeper cleaning, a pH-neutral cleaner works well. With proper maintenance, your floor will maintain its appearance and performance for 20+ years without needing recoating or major repairs.
