Epoxy Flooring or Painted Concrete: Best Choice for My Garage

Choosing epoxy flooring over painted concrete can help create a functional, stylish, hard-wearing floor for your garage. Unlike painted concrete, epoxy flooring is strong, durable, and can withstand heavy foot and vehicle traffic. ATK Epoxy Floors offers high-quality garage floor epoxy, customized to each of our clients’ garages. Here are reasons why epoxy flooring would be the best choice for your garage:

Durability

Epoxy flooring is more durable than painted concrete. This flooring is made by mixing resin and hardeners, resulting in a rigid material that can withstand pressure and friction. It can also withstand harsh conditions and heavy loads without showing wear and tear. This resilience and chemical resistance make epoxy ideal for garage floors that support heavy foot traffic, industrial equipment, and frequent chemical spills. ATK Epoxy Floors supplies high-quality epoxy flooring solutions that will last for years without needing repairs.

Desired Aesthetic

Unlike painted concrete, epoxy flooring is highly customizable. It comes in various colors, finishes, and patterns, allowing you to customize your garage flooring to your desired style. Epoxy flooring has a seamless and glossy finish, which can help add a sleek and modern touch to your space. The smooth surface also creates the illusion of a larger space and reflects light to brighten up the area.

ATK Epoxy Floors offers a wide variety of color and design options. You can choose solid colors for a seamless look or mixed colors for a bolder look. We also offer designs with shimmery flecks for those looking to create unique or commercial spaces.

Installation

Painted concrete requires several coats for even coverage and can take several days to dry. Epoxy flooring can be applied in a single day and provide a more durable and longer-lasting finish.

At ATK Epoxy Floors, we aim to make the epoxy floor installation process as straightforward as possible. Our team will prepare your garage by removing all dirt and debris and filling all cracks and holes. Then, we’ll apply a primer to allow the epoxy to adhere and apply epoxy based on your garage needs. After that, you only have to wait 24 hours for your new floor to dry.

Maintenance

Painted concrete is relatively high-maintenance, requiring regular cleaning to prevent grime and dirt buildup. It also requires frequent touchups for chips and scuffs.

Our epoxy floors have seamless surfaces that make cleaning easy, preventing dirt and bacteria buildup. They require only occasional sweeping and mopping to keep them looking their best. Our epoxy flooring is also resistant to stains, spills, and abrasions, reducing the need for frequent maintenance.

Safety

Painted concrete can create an extremely slippery surface, especially when it is wet or oily. This can lead to slips and falls, resulting in serious injuries. With epoxy flooring, you can prioritize safety in your garage while maintaining a sleek and modern appearance.

ATK Epoxy Floors can customize your epoxy flooring with an anti-slip surface to reduce the risk of accidents. We can also add bright colors or striping to designate walking lanes or hazardous areas, further promoting safety.
