The Process Professionals Use to Install Epoxy
While epoxy is known for being the number one way to complete a garage floor resurfacing project, it belongs in other parts of your home as well! Epoxy can cover any concrete surface, making it more durable, more beautiful, and more welcoming. Are you the type to have friends over for a football game? You might BBQ on the back porch while the game is on, or you might throw 4th of July bashes that bring in tons of family and friends. You all gather on your back porch for food and fireworks. With all of those people gathering at your home, don’t you want a back porch you can be proud of? Epoxy can make your dream porch come to life.
To start, it is always best to call a professional to install your new garage floor covering in Wilmington, DE. Professionals have the experience and technique to get the job done right, the first time. They will also be able to complete the project in a timely manner while making sure every detail is perfect. They also have the skills to properly customize your epoxy. Whether you want a color that pops or a logo stamped, they can take care of your every wish. It also makes the job a lot easier for you, because you will not have to do a thing!
Professionals start with a very thorough cleaning process. This is to ensure that no dirt, mold, grime, or other particles come in between your concrete and epoxy. If all of those particles are not whisked away, then the epoxy may not dry correctly and evenly. The deck will then have to be sanded, and any holes, cracks, or divots will have to be filled in so that the floor is completely level. Then the deck will be cleaned again, followed by a sealant that protects the concrete from any moisture. Then, the primer goes down, followed by all of the steps that go along with the actual epoxy application.
All of these steps must be completed perfectly, which is very difficult to do if you don’t have the experience and training that a professional does. This is why it is always recommended to hire a professional company to complete the job for you. There have been way too many DIY epoxy fails that have resulted in a much priceyer solution. So, call up your local epoxy professionals today and let them create the porch of your dreams that will host BBQ’s and firework shows for many, many years to come!

Really Pleased! Our garage needed some major help – not only was it a mess but the floor was just ugly with all the stains and such. I will agree with the reviewer below – do not go with the cheap imitators! Floorguard not only has a great product, but their installers and service is well worth any extra cost, which is minimal anyway. Our neighbors have commented on how good our garage looks and we’ve recommended them to Floorguard without hesitation.

Covering our old, gray garage floor was a great aesthetic and functional improvement. This project requires 2 days: first day preparing the surface (major job requiring right equipment), putting down first coating and sprinkling the flakes. This requires about 4 hours. After this dries, they come back next day and apply the topcoat. They notified us when they would start the work and arrived as promised. They worked diligently, completed the work efficiently, left the work areas and our driveway clean. The owner Steve is a great guy to deal with.

It was a pleasure dealing with the company’s owner Steve Chaloult. When we called him to give us an estimate, he arranged to come within a few days. We have a very large two car garage. His estimate was a bit more than the first company we called but he seemed very well prepared in showing us samples and very knowledgeable about his product and we just liked him. For personal reasons , we had to delay installation for about a month and he could not be more accommodating. we finally we able to have it done this past week and it was worth the wait. The garage floor is just beautiful and I never would have thought I would say that about a garage floor! We also had the lower walls around the floor done and very glad we did. At one time we were thinking we could do this ourselves using a kit. WHAT were we thinking? This is a job for a professional and we are so glad we used Steve.

The owner Steve Chaloult was easy to work with and he’s very good at what he does. I highly recommend Floorguard as your contractor if you’re wanting to have a garage floor finished with a durable epoxy like colored finish. Floorguard came when they said they would and cleaned up after they were finished. Floorguard also installs garage storage cabinets.
