Your garage becomes the space you actually want to use. No more tracking dirt through your house or dealing with stains that won’t come out. No more slippery surfaces when it’s wet or worrying about oil spills ruining your concrete.
The coating handles everything Connecticut throws at it. Road salt, antifreeze, motor oil, dropped tools. It all wipes clean with basic soap and water. Your floor stays looking new for decades, not months.
You get a surface that’s tougher than your original concrete but looks like something from a high-end showroom. And because we complete most installations in a single day, you’re not dealing with weeks of disruption to park your car somewhere else.
We were founded by two lifelong friends who understand what Connecticut homeowners need. Dave brings military precision as a former U.S. Marine, while Craig handles the customer experience with his sales and marketing background.
We’ve been serving Blue Hills and the greater Hartford area since our founding, watching the neighborhood grow and change. We know the challenges local homeowners face—from harsh winters that bring road salt into garages to the diverse housing stock that ranges from early 1900s homes to 1950s builds.
Our team is certified in Polyurea and Polyaspartic coatings, not just basic epoxy. That means we can handle the specific conditions Blue Hills homes present, whether you’re in one of the historic single-family houses near the University of Hartford or a newer property closer to Keney Park.
We start with thorough concrete preparation because that’s where most other companies cut corners. Our team grinds the surface properly so the coating actually bonds instead of just sitting on top. We repair any cracks, fill divots, and address issues that would cause problems later.
Next comes our moisture mitigation primer, especially important in Blue Hills where basements and garages can deal with Connecticut’s humidity and seasonal moisture changes. This step prevents the coating failures you see with cheaper installations.
We apply the base coating system, then add decorative flakes if you’ve chosen them, followed by our polyaspartic topcoat. This isn’t standard epoxy that yellows and chips—it’s a system designed to handle real garage conditions for decades. Most projects are walk-ready in 24 hours and vehicle-ready in 72 hours, so you’re not displaced from your routine for weeks.

Every installation includes complete surface preparation, crack repair, and our certified coating system with 15-year warranty. You’re not paying extra for basics like cleaning or minor concrete repairs—that’s part of doing the job right.
Blue Hills homeowners often choose our flake system because it hides the small imperfections common in older concrete while providing extra slip resistance during Connecticut’s wet seasons. The decorative flakes also complement the neighborhood’s mix of architectural styles, from Colonial Revival to ranch designs.
We use polyaspartic topcoats specifically because they handle temperature swings better than standard epoxy. Blue Hills sees everything from humid summers to freezing winters with road salt, and our coating system is formulated for exactly these conditions. You get UV resistance, chemical resistance, and impact resistance that standard garage floor paints simply can’t match.
The installation includes anti-slip additives if needed, custom color matching, and complete cleanup. We work around your schedule because we know Blue Hills residents are busy with work, family, and community commitments.
Our polyaspartic coating systems last significantly longer than standard epoxy in Connecticut conditions. While basic epoxy might need recoating in 5-7 years, our certified system comes with a 15-year warranty and typically lasts 20+ years with normal use.
The key difference is how we handle Connecticut’s climate challenges. Blue Hills sees temperature swings from below freezing to 90+ degrees, plus humidity, road salt, and UV exposure. Our coating system is specifically formulated for these conditions, not just generic garage use.
We’ve installed floors in Blue Hills homes built everywhere from the early 1900s to the 1950s, and the coating performs consistently regardless of your home’s age. The preparation work we do ensures proper bonding to your existing concrete, which is why we can offer that 15-year warranty with confidence.
The difference is like comparing a professional paint job to a spray can. Home store kits use basic water-based epoxy that’s designed for light residential use and easy application by homeowners with no experience.
Our system uses certified polyaspartic coatings that require professional equipment and training to install correctly. We diamond-grind your concrete to create proper surface profile, use commercial-grade primers, and apply coatings that are 4-5 times thicker than DIY products.
DIY kits typically fail within 1-3 years, especially in Connecticut garages where you’re dealing with road salt, temperature changes, and vehicle traffic. When they fail, you have to remove the old coating before installing anything new, which often costs more than hiring professionals initially. Our installations come with a 15-year warranty because we use materials and methods designed for long-term performance.
Yes, but timing and temperature control are critical for proper installation. We can work in Connecticut winters as long as your garage maintains temperatures above 50°F during application and curing.
Most Blue Hills garages attached to heated homes stay warm enough for winter installation. For detached or unheated garages, we typically recommend scheduling between April and November when natural temperatures support proper curing.
The coating needs specific temperature and humidity conditions to cure correctly, and rushing the process in cold weather leads to adhesion problems later. We’d rather schedule your installation for optimal conditions than risk a failure that requires complete removal and reinstallation. Our goal is a floor that lasts decades, not just looks good initially.
Blue Hills has homes spanning from the early 1900s to the 1950s, so we see everything from hand-troweled concrete to mid-century pours with different aggregate and finishing techniques. Each era presents specific challenges that we address during preparation.
Older concrete often has surface irregularities, minor settling cracks, or areas where previous repairs were made with different materials. We evaluate each floor individually and include necessary repairs in our standard installation process—you’re not surprised with extra charges for normal age-related issues.
Our diamond grinding process levels surface variations and creates uniform texture for coating adhesion. We use specialized crack repair compounds that flex with seasonal movement, preventing the coating from failing at repair points. The preparation work takes longer on older floors, but that’s built into our process because we know the neighborhood and what these homes require.
Maintenance is remarkably simple, which is why Blue Hills homeowners love these floors. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping with basic soap and water keeps them looking new. No special cleaners, no periodic resealing, no annual maintenance contracts.
Connecticut winters bring road salt, and our coating handles it without special treatment. The salt rinses off with water and doesn’t damage or stain the surface like it would with bare concrete or standard paint.
For Blue Hills homeowners who use their garages for workshops or storage, oil spills and other automotive fluids clean up immediately with paper towels or basic degreaser. The non-porous surface prevents stains from penetrating, so you’re not dealing with permanent discoloration that builds up over time. Most homeowners find they spend less time cleaning their garage floor after coating than they did trying to maintain bare concrete.
Investment typically ranges from $1,800 to $4,200 for most Blue Hills garages, depending on size, condition, and coating system selected. This includes all preparation work, materials, installation, and our 15-year warranty.
While DIY kits cost $200-400 initially, they typically fail within 2-3 years and require complete removal before proper coating can be applied. Professional installation costs more upfront but provides decades of performance with warranty protection.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re getting. No surprises, no hidden fees for normal preparation work. Most Blue Hills homeowners find the investment worthwhile when they consider the time saved on maintenance, the improved functionality of their garage, and the increase in home value from a professionally finished space.
