Your garage becomes the space you’re proud to show off. No more dusty concrete tracking through your house. No more oil stains that won’t come out. No more wondering if your floor coating will hold up.
You get a showroom-quality surface that handles everything Connecticut weather throws at it. Hot tires, road salt, spilled chemicals – your floor takes it all without breaking down. And because we use polyaspartic technology instead of traditional epoxy, you’re back to parking in your garage the next day, not waiting weeks for it to cure.
The best part? You stop worrying about your garage floor and start enjoying it. Whether you’re working on projects, storing equipment, or just want your home to look its best, you finally have a floor that works as hard as you do.
We’ve been transforming garages across Connecticut since 2020, but our experience runs much deeper. We’re a veteran-owned business with over 30 years of combined expertise, and we’re BBB accredited because we do things the right way.
We’ve seen what happens when garage floor coatings fail in Branford Center. The freeze-thaw cycles, the humidity, the salt from winter roads – it’s tough on floors. That’s exactly why we use advanced polyaspartic systems instead of basic epoxy. Our certified technicians know how to prep Connecticut concrete properly, and we stand behind every installation.
You’re not just getting a floor coating. You’re getting peace of mind from a company that understands what works in our climate and what doesn’t.
We start with proper surface preparation – the step that determines whether your floor lasts 20 years or fails in two. Our team mechanically grinds your concrete to create the right profile for maximum adhesion. No shortcuts, no acid etching that barely scratches the surface.
Next comes moisture mitigation. Connecticut basements and garages deal with humidity, and we apply specialized primers that prevent moisture from pushing up through your concrete and causing peeling later.
Then we install your polyaspartic coating system. This isn’t the basic epoxy you’ll find at home improvement stores. It’s a professional-grade system that cures fast, resists UV damage, and handles heavy use. We add decorative flakes for texture and slip resistance, then seal everything with a crystal-clear topcoat that protects against scratches and chemicals.
Most installations are complete in one day. You park your car out in the morning, and you’re driving back in by evening.

Every garage floor coating project includes professional diamond grinding, moisture testing, and premium polyaspartic materials. But what sets us apart in Branford Center is understanding your local conditions.
We know how Connecticut winters affect concrete. We’ve worked in homes built in the 1970s with settling foundations and brand-new construction with perfectly level slabs. Each situation requires different prep work, and we adjust our process accordingly.
Your coating system includes anti-slip additives because safety matters, especially when you’re tracking in snow and rain. We use UV-resistant topcoats because Connecticut gets plenty of sun through garage windows. And we apply moisture-blocking primers because humidity is a fact of life here.
The result is a floor that looks great on day one and still looks great years later. No yellowing, no peeling, no regrets about choosing the cheapest option.
Professional polyaspartic coatings typically last 15-20 years with proper installation and care, significantly longer than traditional epoxy systems. The key difference is in both the materials and the installation process.
Many homeowners in Branford Center have experienced epoxy failures within 2-5 years, usually due to improper surface preparation or using residential-grade products. Our polyaspartic systems are designed specifically for Connecticut’s climate challenges – freeze-thaw cycles, humidity, and temperature fluctuations that can cause inferior coatings to fail.
We use mechanical diamond grinding instead of acid etching, moisture-blocking primers, and commercial-grade topcoats. This combination creates a floor system that bonds properly to your concrete and resists the environmental factors that cause premature coating failure.
Polyaspartic coatings cure much faster than traditional epoxy – usually within hours instead of days or weeks. This means you can park your car in the garage the next day instead of waiting up to 30 days for full cure.
Polyaspartic also offers superior UV resistance, so your floor won’t yellow or fade over time like epoxy does. It’s more flexible, which helps it handle concrete movement and temperature changes better. And it has better chemical resistance against automotive fluids, road salt, and cleaning products.
The main trade-off is cost – polyaspartic systems are more expensive upfront. But when you factor in longer lifespan, faster installation, and better performance, most Branford Center homeowners find it’s worth the investment for a floor they won’t need to replace or repair.
It depends on the condition of your existing coating. If the epoxy is well-bonded and not peeling, we can often apply our polyaspartic system over it after proper preparation. However, if there’s any peeling, bubbling, or poor adhesion, we need to remove the old coating first.
Most DIY epoxy installations we see in Branford Center have adhesion problems because the concrete wasn’t prepared correctly initially. Trying to coat over a failing system just creates more problems down the road.
We always start with a thorough evaluation of your existing floor. If removal is necessary, we have the equipment and experience to handle it properly. Our goal is a floor system that will last, not a quick fix that fails in a few years.
Proper concrete preparation is the most critical step, and it’s where most coating failures begin. We start with mechanical diamond grinding to open the concrete’s pores and create the right surface profile for maximum adhesion.
Acid etching – the method used in most DIY kits – only works on very porous concrete and often leaves an uneven surface. Diamond grinding works on all concrete types and creates a consistent profile across your entire garage floor.
We also test for moisture issues using plastic sheet testing and apply moisture-blocking primers when needed. Any cracks or uneven areas get filled and leveled. Oil stains require special degreasing treatment. Only after the concrete is properly cleaned, profiled, and dried do we begin applying the coating system. This preparation process is what separates professional installations from weekend DIY projects.
Polyaspartic garage floor coatings require minimal maintenance compared to bare concrete or traditional epoxy. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner is usually all you need to keep your floor looking great.
The seamless, non-porous surface resists stains, so most spills wipe up easily. Road salt, oil, brake fluid, and other automotive chemicals won’t penetrate or permanently stain the surface like they do with concrete.
Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers, or high-pressure washing that can damage the coating over time. If you notice any small chips or scratches, address them promptly to prevent moisture from getting underneath the coating. With proper care, your garage floor coating should maintain its appearance and performance for decades.
Professional garage floor coating costs vary based on your garage size, concrete condition, and the specific system you choose. Most residential garages in Branford Center range from $3-8 per square foot for complete polyaspartic systems.
While this is more expensive than DIY epoxy kits, consider the total cost of ownership. Professional coatings last 15-20 years versus 2-5 years for DIY options. You also avoid the cost and hassle of removing failed coatings and starting over.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs – surface preparation, materials, labor, and warranty coverage. No surprises, no hidden fees. Most homeowners find that investing in professional installation saves money long-term while delivering the results they actually want.
