Your garage doesn’t have to be the forgotten corner of your home. When we finish your floor, you’ll have a clean, professional surface that resists oil stains, road salt damage, and everyday wear.
No more worrying about spills soaking into concrete. No more embarrassment when people see your garage. Just a floor that looks great and stays that way with minimal effort.
You’ll get a seamless, non-porous coating that wipes clean with basic mopping. Chemical spills from cars, lawn equipment, or winter road treatments won’t penetrate or leave permanent marks.
American Poly Floor is a veteran-owned business that’s been serving Connecticut homeowners with professional-grade flooring solutions. We’re not a franchise or national chain—we’re local contractors who understand what Connecticut weather does to concrete.
Our team holds certifications in Polyurea and Polyaspartic coatings, and we’ve completed thousands of projects across residential and commercial spaces. We know Niantic homeowners value quality work that lasts, which is why we use only professional-grade materials designed for New England conditions.
When you work with us, you’re getting contractors who show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat your property with respect. We’ve built our reputation in Connecticut one satisfied customer at a time.
We start with thorough concrete preparation—the foundation of any lasting epoxy job. This means diamond grinding your floor to ensure proper adhesion and repairing any cracks or imperfections.
Next, we apply a moisture mitigation primer that prevents peeling and creates a strong bond with your concrete. This step is often skipped by DIY kits and inexperienced contractors, but it’s essential for Connecticut’s climate conditions.
We then apply your chosen epoxy system, whether that’s solid color, decorative flakes, or metallic finishes. Our polyaspartic topcoat provides superior UV resistance and scratch protection. Most installations are completed in one day, so you can park your car that evening.

Connecticut winters are tough on garage floors. Road salt, freeze-thaw cycles, and temperature swings can destroy standard concrete and inferior coatings. Our epoxy systems are specifically chosen for New England conditions.
Niantic homeowners deal with coastal humidity and salt air that can accelerate concrete deterioration. Our moisture mitigation primers and chemical-resistant topcoats are designed to handle these environmental challenges while maintaining their appearance and performance.
We use low-VOC, environmentally responsible products that cure properly even in cooler temperatures. Unlike many epoxy products that fail in temperatures below 50 degrees, our systems install reliably year-round, giving you flexibility in scheduling your project.
Most garage floor installations are completed in one day. We arrive in the morning, prep your concrete surface through diamond grinding, apply primer and base coats, add any decorative elements, and finish with the topcoat.
The actual timeline depends on your garage size and the specific system you choose. A standard two-car garage typically takes 6-8 hours from start to finish. You can usually park your car that same evening, though we recommend waiting 24 hours for full cure before heavy use.
Weather conditions can affect scheduling, but our polyaspartic systems cure reliably even in cooler Connecticut temperatures, giving us more flexibility than traditional epoxy products.
Yes, when properly installed with the right materials. Connecticut winters are particularly hard on garage floors because of road salt, freeze-thaw cycles, and temperature swings. That’s why we use professional-grade systems specifically chosen for New England conditions.
Our moisture mitigation primers prevent water infiltration that causes peeling and delamination. The chemical-resistant topcoats we use handle road salt and automotive fluids without staining or etching. We’ve seen too many DIY jobs and inferior professional work fail after one winter season.
The key is proper surface preparation and using industrial-grade materials rather than consumer products. Our systems are designed to expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking or losing adhesion.
Professional epoxy garage floor installation in Niantic typically ranges from $1,100 to $4,300 for a two-car garage, depending on the system you choose and your specific conditions. Solid color systems are at the lower end, while decorative flakes or metallic finishes cost more.
We provide detailed, written estimates with no hidden fees. The price includes all surface preparation, materials, labor, and cleanup. While this costs more than DIY kits, you’re getting professional surface prep, industrial-grade materials, and proper application that lasts 15-20 years instead of failing in 2-3 years.
Consider the total cost of ownership: a professional installation that lasts two decades versus multiple DIY attempts or cheap contractor work that needs redoing every few years. The math usually favors doing it right the first time.
The biggest difference is surface preparation and material quality. DIY kits typically use acid etching instead of proper mechanical preparation, which creates a weak bond. We diamond grind your concrete to create the proper surface profile for maximum adhesion.
Professional-grade epoxy systems also have higher solids content and better chemical resistance than retail products. Our polyaspartic topcoats provide UV stability and scratch resistance that consumer products can’t match. We also use moisture mitigation primers that prevent the peeling issues common with DIY applications.
Installation technique matters too. Proper mixing ratios, application timing, and environmental conditions all affect the final result. We have the experience and equipment to handle these variables consistently, while DIY projects often fail due to application errors or environmental conditions.
It depends on the existing coating’s condition and type. If you have a well-adhered epoxy coating that’s just worn or faded, we can often recoat it after proper preparation. However, if the existing coating is peeling, flaking, or poorly bonded, it needs complete removal.
We evaluate each situation individually. Latex paints, sealers, and failed DIY epoxy jobs usually need full removal before applying our professional system. This involves mechanical grinding to get back to clean concrete, which is included in our preparation process.
The good news is that even if removal is needed, we handle it as part of the job. Our goal is a coating system that performs reliably for 15-20 years, which requires starting with a properly prepared surface regardless of what’s currently there.
Maintenance is surprisingly simple, which is one of the main benefits of professional epoxy flooring. Regular sweeping to remove dirt and debris prevents scratching. For deeper cleaning, use a soft mop with mild detergent and water—no special products needed.
Clean up spills promptly, though our chemical-resistant topcoats handle most automotive fluids without staining. Avoid using harsh scrubbing pads or abrasive cleaners that could dull the finish. A leaf blower works great for clearing out debris and leaves.
The seamless, non-porous surface means there are no cracks or joints where dirt can accumulate. Most homeowners find they spend less time maintaining their garage floor after epoxy installation than they did trying to keep bare concrete clean.
