Coating garage floors is a long-lasting solution that enhances the durability, look, and safety of your garage floors. Coatings can protect your concrete floors from heavy-duty wear, chemical exposure, hot-tire pick-up, road salt, stains, and more. Before coating concrete, moisture mitigation is a critical step—not just for aesthetics, but for performance. So, how do professionals mitigate concrete moisture before installing floor coatings?
The experts at Garaginization have over a decade of experience in garage floor coatings.
Preparation is Key
At Garaginization, we understand that superior surface preparation is the key to high-quality results. Other companies will assure you that acid washing, power washing, or even simply sweeping your floors is enough to prep the surface for coating. But these processes can never adequately prep your concrete. Inadequate preparation can result in moisture buildup, peeling, and cracks.
Garaginization ONLY preps concrete floors with diamond grinding. This is an essential step to remove contaminants, minimize open pores, and increase the bond strength with the epoxy. First, we fill in any existing cracks and seams in the concrete. Then we diamond-grind the entire floor, creating a smooth surface for superior adhesion. This process ensures a strong bond that will not peel, crack, or bubble, giving you a top-quality floor coating that stands the test of time.

Superior Vapor Barriers
After thoroughly prepping the concrete, our skilled team members apply a specialized, high-solids epoxy coating to serve as a primer and barrier. This creates an impermeable layer that blocks moisture from reaching and compromising the top coat of your floor.
Other coatings may provide the same look at first, but not all coatings offer the same performance. Our customers trust us to provide floors that look good AND last. We have spent years performance testing our products to find the right formula to maximize the longevity of your floors.
Garaginization uses a 100% solids Epoxy and 90% solid Polyaspartic. Our materials are UV-stable, meaning the base coat will not fade and the topcoat will not yellow from exposure to the sun or other elements. Our coatings are also chemical-resistant, making them suitable for handling spilled gas or oil. You can enjoy long-lasting floors that are easy to clean and stain-resistant. We offer a large selection of epoxy flooring colors and styles, including various epoxy primer colors and granite chip color combinations.
