Richardson Garage Flooring

Richardson Garage Flooring Experts

When it comes to Richardson garage flooring and coating options, we’ve got you covered! We utilize only the best formulations of polyurea concrete coatings and epoxy flooring to make your garage, patio or indoor/outdoor flooring look great and last!

When installing a garage floor in Richardson, TX there are a lot of things that we need to consider such as warm or cold weather, concrete expansion/contraction, UV rays, physical impacts, abrasion resistance, and household chemicals. We choose to use Polyureas throughout our whole floor coating system. Polyureas give you all of the needed characteristics to withstand our climate and much more!

PURE POLYUREA BASE COAT / POLYASPARTIC POLYUREA -Richardson GARAGE FLOORING

• Polyureas are extremely flexible, in fact are 98% more flexible than typical Epoxy/Hybrid floor coatings.  This flexibility is key during the summer to winter transition when the ground and concrete are freezing or close to it.  During this time, the concrete is shifting and expanding which causes most floor coatings to fracture and crack. Polyureas, being as flexible as they are, expand and contract with the concrete leaving the surface strong and intact. Richardson Polyurea garage floor coatings are also fully cured after 24 hrs. This does not allow the product to get harder or softer over time and with different temperatures. Richardson Epoxy/Hybrid floor coatings cure to 80% in 7 days and over the course of time cure the additional 20%. During this time the product continues to get harder and more brittle causing epoxies to eventually fracture and crack causing delamination.

• Polyurea garage flooring installations are 4x more abrasion resistant than epoxy/hybrid garage floor coatings. This is due to their extreme flexibility, elongation, dense cross-linking, and mar resistance. Polyureas can take a tremendous amount of abuse because they are malleable and can take the physical impacts and disperse them, much like the rubber on a car tire.

• As well as being flexible and abrasion resistant, polyurea garage flooring installations are more chemically resistant to a much wider range of chemicals than epoxy surfaces. This is due to their densely cross-linked chemistry. From Salt, Oil, Gas, and Grease, to Acids, Skydrol, and Hydroxides, Polyureas will withstand a wide range of chemicals including salt, oil, gas, grease, skydrol and acids that you may use in your garage.

• Polyurea floor coatings have 2x the adhesion over typical epoxy/hybrid floor coatings. Polyureas are commonly associated with spray liners in pickup trucks, and are made from the same materials only reformulated for concrete floor coatings. In a spray application, the product is cured within 17 seconds and has an eternal bond to the substrate. This same chemistry is used in our floor coating product but slowed down to an hour cure time. This gives the product time to penetrate into the concrete deeply and bond molecularly into the concrete.

• Polyurea coatings are 100% UV stable. UV stability is very important if you want your finish to look great and last! You will never see a difference in color with areas that are exposed to UV rays. These areas could include windows, doors, garage doors, and the portion of the floor that sticks beyond the garage door and is exposed to light every day! The UV stability of our product is backed by a written lifetime warranty!

WHY DO WE RECOMMEND A FULL CHIP SYSTEM FOR Richardson GARAGE FLOORING?

• Even Coating: Full chip broadcast is chip thrown on to the floor completely covering the basecoat and leaving the surface even and uniform in color.

• Skid Resistance:  Full chip floors are extremely skid resistant even when the surface is wet.  The surface has good texture to eliminate a wet slippery floor and lets you safely walk across your garage!

• Low Maintenance:  Although chip floors are extremely skid resistant, they are extremely easy to clean and keep clean. While the different colors of chips create a tone that dirt and mud blend into, it also offers an easy to clean texture.  Polyaspartic polyureas cure out monolithic, leaving the surface non-porous. Dirt, oils, gas, and other contaminants cannot permeate the surface which makes them easy to sweep and wash away.

• Solid Color/Partial Chip Floors: While they can be easy to clean because of their very smooth surface, they become extremely slippery when wet. This will result in many unwanted injuries. The only way to make these surfaces skid resistant are by broadcasting in silica sand which will make the surface coarse. This coarse surface now becomes very hard to keep clean and maintain. This is why we recommend a full chip floor which is the best of both worlds!
