Why Choose Epoxy for Your Garage Floor?
Garage floors endure regular use, exposure to chemicals, and the occasional oil spill or heavy impact. A high-quality epoxy and polyaspartic coating system not only protects against these common issues but also transforms your garage into a polished, organized space. Epoxy flooring is particularly well-suited to Inland Northwest’s climate, where weather changes and humidity can affect untreated concrete. Here are some of the key benefits of garage epoxy floors:
- Excellent Durability: Epoxy and polyaspartic coatings provide a hard, protective surface that resists impacts, abrasions, and wear from vehicles and tools. The multiple layers provide the required durability for busy garages where vehicles, tools, and equipment constantly test the floor’s resilience.
- Moisture and Stain Resistance: A seamless epoxy and polyaspartic finish is non-porous, meaning the flooring won’t absorb moisture or stains from oil, gasoline, or chemicals. This is especially valuable in regions like Inland Northwest, where snow and rain can bring moisture and salt into the garage.
- Ease of Cleaning: Epoxy and polyaspartic flooring’s smooth, polished surface makes cleaning simple. Dust, dirt, and spills are easy to wipe away, allowing you to keep your garage floor looking pristine without intensive maintenance.
- Aesthetic Appeal: With a range of customization options, including color choices and chip systems, epoxy and polyaspartic coatings can be tailored to fit your style. Whether you prefer a high-gloss solid color or a decorative flake system, epoxy flooring adds a professional look.
- Longevity: These floors, when installed and maintained properly, can last a long time. When it comes to your epoxy and polyaspartic flooring solutions, you should be thinking in terms of decades, not years. That’s the type of peace of mind we strive to offer with every project.

Epoxy Flooring Options for Your Garage
At GFC Inland NW, we offer several epoxy coating options tailored to meet the specific demands of garage environments. Each type is designed to address both the functional needs and aesthetic preferences of our clients.
- Solid Epoxy Systems: For a clean, modern look, solid epoxy coatings provide a uniform, glossy surface. These coatings come in various colors and offer excellent durability, making them ideal for high-traffic areas in garages.
- Full Flake and Partial Flake Systems: For added traction and visual interest, our flake systems incorporate decorative vinyl and mica chips into the epoxy layer. This creates a textured surface that adds a unique, stylish appearance.
- Polyaspartic Topcoats: For those looking for added UV protection and fast cure times, polyaspartic topcoats are an excellent addition to epoxy systems. These coatings resist yellowing over time, ensuring your garage floor maintains its vibrant appearance even with frequent exposure to sunlight.
Our Professional Installation Process
A flawless garage epoxy floor begins with meticulous preparation and professional application. At GFC Inland NW, our process ensures that your epoxy floor is built to last. Here’s a step-by-step look at what to expect:
-
- Surface Preparation: We grind the concrete floor using our propane diamond grinders to remove any existing coatings, oils, or imperfections. This step is critical as it creates the perfect concrete “profile” for the pending epoxy primer coat.
- Crack and Pitting Repair: Once the surface is prepped, we address any cracks or pits using our concrete patch system to create a smooth foundation. This is especially important in colder climates, where freeze-thaw cycles can cause cracks in untreated concrete.
- Epoxy Application: We apply a high-build, moisture-mitigating, slow-cure epoxy base coat. This thick primer coat deeply penetrates the concrete and creates a durable foundation. Depending on your choice, we then add decorative flakes or apply additional color layers to achieve your desired look.
- Polyaspartic Topcoats: Finally, on day 2, after buffing and vacuuming, we seal the base coat and flakes with dual polyaspartic topcoats. These two clear topcoats provide added UV stability, chemical, stain and impact resistance, and an attractive, high-gloss finish. This top layer protects the floor from yellowing and daily wear.
Benefits of Professional Installation in Inland Northwest
