Some Great Pictures of Epoxy Floors

Epoxy floor coatings are not always found in garages, as the pictures below show they can really be put anywhere there is a concrete surface. The smooth finish and clean appearance make epoxy floor paint a great choice anywhere in your home or business.


This is clearly a garage floor that has had epoxy applied to it, and probably by a professional. Note how there are no tire marks or scuffs caused by the tires. If applied correctly these floors are extremely durable. Their easy maintenance also makes them top choices for garages.


This is a great example of what an epoxy floor coating can do to a house or room. It's not just that it cleans it up, but it also gives it an air of elegance. I think the picture below this really shows that well.


This picture really speaks for itself. It really is a gorgeous floor, and it is the floor that makes the room. You take this furniture and put it in a carpeted room and it just looks okay. In a room with an epoxy floor, however, it becomes transformed.


This again just goes to show how epoxy floor paint can really transform a room. Imagine what this would look like if it were just concrete. With the epoxy down it really pops.

When thinking about renovating your home, take some time to consider epoxy products. As these pictures show, they really can transform your space and completely change it.

Epoxy Flooring | Finding the Right Professional

Choosing the Right Epoxy Floor Installer is Critical to Great Results

So you've made the decision to take the plunge and install an epoxy floor in your garage or basement, now what? As you might expect, there are two general options to choose from: (1) installing the epoxy floor yourself (the do-it yourself route); or (2) hiring a professional experienced in epoxy floor coating. Several factors will probably go into this decision, the most important of which is probably price. But if you choose to hire a epoxy floor coating professional there are some things you might want to consider to make as sure as possible that the results are satisfactory.

First Find Experienced Epoxy Floor Professionals

Although putting these floors in is relatively straightforward, as with any home improvement project, there are intricacies that can only be learned through the experience of previous floor coatings. So the first step is to find professionals in your area with experience. It shouldn't be difficult - the internet is a great place to start. For example, in Kansas, several epoxy floor coating specialists exist. And even further drilling down, in Wichita, Kansas there are pros ready to help (Kyle Holland Construction of Wichita Kansas prides itself on being the best epoxy floor professional in Kansas, however).

Second Call the Pros and Before Talking About Price ask for References or Photos of Past Projects

What better way to see how good someone is at their craft than to look at their previous work and talk to their previous customers. Kyle Holland Construction prides itself not only on providing a great work product, but also providing great customer service. Because of that, several references and examples of quality epoxy garage floor projects exist.

Finally Get Several Estimates for Your Epoxy Floor Project

Have the epoxy flooring professional visit your project site and take a look at what is required. Take the time to ask them all the questions you have, even if you think they are difficult questions. Also take the time at this point to size up each of the professionals you interview (you should be getting multiple bids). Do they sound like they know what they are talking about? Are they demonstrating the kind of customer service qualities you expect from a professional service person?

When you do finally choose someone, remember this: you are not just buying an epoxy floor product. You can do that anywhere and eventually find it at the cheapest price. What you are buying is professional epoxy floor installation knowledge and the comfort of knowing it will be done right the first time. Just like anything, exceptional service often demands higher prices, even if slightly so. Ask yourself if saving a couple hundred bucks is worth getting a great epoxy floor professional or a mediocre one.

Remember to follow these steps after deciding to get an epoxy garage floor to increase the likelihood of a great epoxy floor paint experience.

Epoxy Garage Floors | Who Gets Em?

I'm sure if you've heard of epoxy garage floors (or some other garage floor ideas for that matter) and stumbled to this site you might be asking yourself, "who gets these?"

Truth be told not many people around have finished of their garage floors with this treatment. Generally, if someone is trying to promote something, and you haven't heard or seen much about it, your first thought is that it must not be that successful or that the product must not be that good.

But don't forget the third option, which I think holds true here. At some point every product, every service, every business had to start from scratch. Wal-Mart started out as a little mom and pop store in Arkansas. So did McDonald's. It wasn't until they became well known that their reputation was solidified. I'd like to think epoxy garage floors are in this same category. A great product that is just starting out, is not widely known, but is wonderful to have.

Now, back to the subject, who takes advantage of these home improvement ideas? In my experience, the typical client has a house that they appreciate, that they take care of, and that they want to be spectacular. It is usually a fairly large sized house in a nice neighborhood with a client who wants to continue to increase the value of his house. It is safe to say that garage floors of this nature are traditionally found in high end homes. These floors are like granite counter tops or vaulted ceilings; they tell visitors that they have stepped into a very nice home.

These garage floors can also be found in the homes of car buffs. Both builders of cars and lovers of cars enjoy these floors, although for very different reasons. Car builders, or anyone who works out in the garage, for that matter, enjoy having these floors because they provide a great working space and they are extremely easy to clean. Oil won't stain it, gas won't stain it, and heat won't destroy it. It washes off with a hose and continues to look great day after day.

Car buffs, on the other hand, love epoxy garage floor products because they make their vehicles look that much more special. Imagine the feelings associated with these two scenarios: first, you drive your mint condition corvette into your garage and park it on your concrete garage floor, full of oil stains, dirt, and grime; or, you drive your mint condition corvette into your garage and park it on a piece of granite! Clearly these two scenarios elicit different feelings.

So, if you want to spice up your home, add some value, and feel like a king of a castle, get an epoxy garage floor today. You won't be disappointed.
