"I had a wonderful experience with Terry Heckman! He was extremely professional and did an amazing job on my garage floor. Terry showed up on time, was friendly and left the job site immaculate. Ii highly recommend this company! I am fussy and he went above and beyond! The flooring in my garage has been a game changer for me."
"Brady came and gave me an estimate. They were able to start the work the next day. It went quite well. They ran into a slight problem in that some of the sub floor came up with the tile. But it did not result in much of a price increase. The floor was extremely uneven, but after they were finished, it was even and ready for us to install our floating floor. They did a great job. "
"He gave me exactly what he promised. He was on time. Did everything that he said he was going to do and there were no surprises. The price was fair and the job was excellent."

A concrete seal can protect your garage floor from water and stains as can an epoxy coating. The main difference is that epoxy is much more durable and better for heavy-duty wear and tear—it’s used in more industrial and commercial settings. If you’re just using the garage as storage for tools and your car, concrete sealer will do just fine. But if your garage doubles as a workshop for side projects and auto repair, epoxy will hold up better.
Concrete coatings protect surfaces from wear, physical damage, abrasion, stains, spills, moisture, and weather. This protection extends the life of the concrete, adds durability, and can also improve aesthetics and safety.
In most cases, yes, sealing concrete will stop spalling. However, it’s not a perfect solution—it may only delay spalling. Call your local concrete repair contractor for quotes on the best sealing options to prevent spalling.
Resurfacing a garage floor takes about eight hours on average, with another couple hours over three days to do the epoxy. Epoxy goes on in three coats, with each coat taking 24 hours to dry and cure. You’ll need to keep foot and vehicle traffic off of your garage floor for around 4 days in total when replacing your garage floor, so be sure to plan ahead before you start. This is a great time to organize your garage since you’ll need to move everything out to apply the epoxy.
Polished concrete floors also have downsides. Some homeowners, for example, might dislike the coldness of the material (though area rugs can help warm up the space). Concrete floors are also hard, which isn’t always ideal for children and pets. What’s more, these floors are susceptible to cracking, and repairs can be costly. Some homeowners might not like that installation isn’t DIY-friendly.
