The garage floor takes more punishment than any other slab in the house, and it is usually the only one left bare. Coating it turns dusting, staining concrete into a sealed garage floor that cleans up and looks finished. We have installed more than 14,000 garage floors since 1999.
The system most Seneca garages get is 100% solids epoxy with decorative flake broadcast into it, sealed under a UV-resistant polyaspartic clear coat.
The result is seamless, slip resistant, and carries a written lifetime warranty against peeling or debonding.
Garages get a specific kind of abuse. Hot tires sit on the surface and pull at any coating that is not properly bonded. Oil, brake fluid, antifreeze and lake water off a trailer come in on the vehicle and sit there.
Bare concrete absorbs all of it, dusts constantly and stains permanently. A bonded garage floor coating is non-porous, so fluids stay on top and wipe off.
The polyaspartic clear coat is UV resistant, which matters for the strip of garage floor inside an open door that takes direct sun.
Epoxy flooring in SenecaDecorative flake is what most Seneca homeowners choose for a garage floor. Acrylic flake is broadcast at 50 pounds per 500 square feet and sealed under the clear coat. It hides slab imperfections, gives grip underfoot, and does not show every mark.
Solid color is the plainer garage floor finish: one even color, hard-wearing, and a good fit where the garage is a workspace or holds a boat and its gear. Metallic epoxy runs pigment through the resin for a floor with depth, which suits a garage kept as display space.
Flake blends and colors can be seen and handled at our Taylors showroom.
Cleaning is the first difference people notice. The garage floor is seamless, with no joints or pores for dirt to work into, so a mop or a hose does what a scrub used to.
It takes the mechanical side too. Rolling jacks, dragged toolboxes and trailer wheels wear the clear coat rather than the color beneath, and the clear coat can be refreshed later without redoing the floor.
Maintenance is low: keep grit swept off, because grit under a tire is what abrades a garage floor coating.
Preparation decides whether a garage floor lasts, and it is where roll-on kits fail. We do a full mechanical prep by diamond grinding so the epoxy keys into the slab rather than sitting on top of it. The grinders run under vacuum extraction to keep dust down in an attached garage.
Cracks, pitting and divots are repaired before coating, and a damp slab starts with a moisture-tolerant penetrating primer. Then the garage floor goes down in sequence: primer, base coat, flake broadcast, polyaspartic clear coat. It cures and is handed back ready to use.

Seneca is the largest town in Oconee County, and it was a railroad and mill town before the lakes arrived. Houses in the old mill villages at Newry and Lonsdale are still lived in, and their garage slabs are old enough that crack and pitting repair is usually part of the job.
The newer half came with the water. Hartwell filled in 1963, Keowee in 1971 and Jocassee in 1974, and lakefront and second-home building followed. Those garages are usually a straight grind, prime and coat, though one on a lower level sitting below grade starts with a moisture-tolerant penetrating primer. It is worth looking at the slab before quoting either way.
We are privately owned, started in 1999, and still locally owned and operated. Across more than 21,000 projects and over 4 million square feet of floor coatings, garage floors are the biggest part of what we do, at more than 14,000 of them.
Every garage floor carries a written lifetime warranty against peeling or debonding, which is a warranty on the bond and therefore on the preparation.
The showroom at 141 Highland Way in Taylors has the flake blends out on display.
