How it works

How does the job actually go?

1

Tell us about the slab

Call the crew. The crew gives you a free, no-obligation estimate with real numbers when they see the job.

2

We grind and coat

Diamond grind, crack repair, moisture check, then the coating system you picked. Most garages are done in a day or two.

3

You approve the work

Cure times depend on the coating system and the weather during install. The crew gives you the timeline for your floor and walks the finished job with you.

What will it cost?

How is your floor priced?

Slab size, the condition of the concrete, how much prep it needs, and the finish you pick all move the number, so there is no single price that fits every Chattanooga floor. Call the crew and get a free, no-obligation estimate on your actual slab.

What we coat

What kind of floor do you need coated?

Garage, basement, or commercial floor. Each gets a coating matched to how hard it gets used.

Garage Floor Epoxy in Chattanooga

The dusty, stained slab becomes a showroom surface that wipes clean and laughs off hot tires, oil drips, and dropped tools. Flake or metallic, sealed to last.

Commercial Epoxy in Chattanooga

Shops, warehouses, kitchens, and retail floors take a beating. We install seamless, chemical-resistant systems rated for forklifts, foot traffic, and daily wash-downs.

Basement Epoxy Floors in Chattanooga

A coated basement slab seals out the damp, kills the concrete dust, and turns a storage hole into usable square footage. We solve moisture before coating, not after.

See basements →

Metallic & Flake Finishes

Marbled metallic pours, custom flake blends, designer color matches. The decorative work that makes a floor the showpiece of the room. Ask about finish options when you call.

Polyaspartic Coatings

Polyaspartic systems cure faster than standard epoxy and stand up to UV and abrasion, which makes them a common topcoat choice when a floor sees sunlight or heavy use.

Why local wins

Why does a local Chattanooga crew matter?

How does this climate affect a coating?

Humid summers and riverside moisture wreck rushed coatings. A moisture-tolerant primer and proper vapor handling are what let a floor hold up to a real Tennessee year.

Who answers when you call?

No 1-800 number, no out-of-state call center, no job handed off to a franchise crew. Call your local Chattanooga crew to get started.

What makes a coating actually bond?

Diamond grinding comes standard on every job. That mechanical bond is the difference between a floor that holds up for years and a kit that peels by August.

Honest about results

If a structural crack or active moisture means more prep, we say so before we start rather than discovering it halfway through the grind.

You get a written estimate before any grinding begins

The crew looks at the actual slab, writes up what the job needs, and goes over it with you before work starts.

Why homeowners choose us

A real epoxy install vs. a DIY kit vs. an out-of-town crew.

Most epoxy floors that peel were never prepped right. Here is what actually separates a floor that lasts from one that fails by August.

What matters Our Chattanooga crew DIY kit Out-of-town crew
Surface prep ✓ Diamond grinding on every job Acid etch / scrub only Often acid etch to save time
Moisture handling ✓ Moisture-tolerant primer, vapor handled ✗ Not addressed Rarely tested for our climate

Where we work

From downtown and the Riverwalk up onto Lookout Mountain and Signal Mountain, out through Hixson, East Brainerd, Ooltewah, Soddy-Daisy, and the rest of Hamilton County. Bigger commercial jobs, we will travel farther. Just ask. Not sure your address is on the route? Call and we will confirm on the spot.

That stained concrete floor is the first thing you see every day.

Oil spots soaked in, hairline cracks, gray dusty concrete that never looks clean no matter how you scrub it. It is the first thing you notice pulling in and the first thing a guest sees when the garage door goes up.

The fix is not more scrubbing. It is a sealed floor. We grind the slab, fill the cracks, and lay down a hard epoxy finish that wipes clean and holds up to tires, tools, and dropped wrenches. Tell us what you are working with and call (423) 805-9608 for a free, no-obligation estimate.

What should you read before you commit to a floor?

Most of what decides whether a coated floor is still good in ten years happens before the first coat goes down. If your slab has ever been damp, start with slab moisture and preparation, because vapor pressure is the reason coatings blister and it is measurable in advance. If you are choosing between systems, the epoxy vs polyaspartic comparison puts the published cure times and UV behavior side by side, and the cost guide covers what moves a number.

If you already have a coated floor, three more guides cover the rest of its life. How long an epoxy floor lasts explains what actually sets the number and when a floor wants a recoat instead of a rebuild. Hot tire pickup is the Chattanooga summer problem that lifts a coating in the tire tracks and nowhere else. Cleaning and maintenance is short on purpose, and mostly a list of what to keep off the floor. And if yours is already blistering, peeling or chalking, what each symptom points to is the place to start before spending anything.

Good questions

Frequently asked

Real questions from Chattanooga homeowners and shop owners.

How much does epoxy flooring cost in Chattanooga?
There is no flat rate. The number depends on slab condition, square footage, moisture levels, and your chosen finish, and a three-car bay is a bigger job than a single. Every estimate is free with no obligation, so call and we will price your actual floor.
Does epoxy hold up in Tennessee humidity?
Yes, when it is installed right. The most common cause of peeling is moisture trapped under a coating that was rushed onto an unprepped slab. Checking the slab for moisture vapor and using a moisture-tolerant primer is what lets a coating survive a humid Chattanooga summer instead of bubbling after one season.
How long until I can use the floor?
Foot traffic comes back first, vehicles later. The exact window shifts with the system used and the temperature during install, so we give you a clear timeline at the estimate and you can plan where to park.
Why hire a pro instead of a DIY kit?
Two reasons: materials and prep. Professional-grade epoxy is a different product class than the retail floor paint sold as epoxy, and it bonds and wears far better. More important, a coating is only as good as the surface under it. Our diamond grinding opens the concrete for a true mechanical bond that consumer acid-etching simply cannot match.
What finishes can I choose from?
Solid color, flake (chip) systems, polyaspartic, and metallic. Flake is the most popular for garages because it hides dust, adds grip, and comes in endless color blends. Metallic creates a marbled, high-end look for showrooms and feature spaces. Ask about finish options when you call.
Can you coat a cracked or stained slab?
In most cases, yes. Hairline and surface cracks are filled and stabilized during prep, and oil stains are treated before grinding. Larger structural cracks or active settling may need more substantial repair and an honest conversation about the result. We evaluate the slab at the free estimate and tell you exactly what prep it needs.
How long does an epoxy floor last?
It comes down to the prep and the topcoat. A correctly ground and coated floor far outlasts a kit that cut corners. Heavy commercial floors may need a refresh sooner depending on how hard they get used.
Do you serve outside Chattanooga proper?
Yes. We regularly cover Hixson, East Brainerd, Ooltewah, Soddy-Daisy, and Signal Mountain alongside Chattanooga itself, and we will travel farther for larger commercial projects. If you are near the edge of our area with a real job, call (423) 805-9608 and we will let you know.
What is install day like, and how do I prepare?
Clear vehicles and as much off the floor as you can before we arrive. We will tell you exactly what to move at the estimate. From there it is our job: we grind the slab, repair cracks, check moisture, and lay the coating system you picked. Most garages are a one- or two-day job, and we leave the space swept and walked with you at the end.
Epoxy or polyaspartic, which is right for me?
Both are professional-grade and far tougher than retail floor paint. Epoxy flake systems are the popular, cost-effective choice for most garages and basements. Polyaspartic cures faster than standard epoxy, handles UV and abrasion well, and is a strong pick for commercial floors or a tight schedule. We will recommend the right system for your slab and how you use the space at the free estimate.
What does epoxy flooring cost per square foot?
Epoxy flooring runs $3 to $12 per square foot installed as a national average per the Angi and HomeGuide 2026 cost guides and Today's Homeowner. That is a market range for the job class, not a price for your slab. The cost guide on this site breaks the ranges down by garage size and by finish.
How long does the whole install usually take?
Most garages are a one- or two-day job on site: diamond grind, crack repair, a moisture check, then the coating system you picked. Getting the floor back is a separate question from finishing the work, because cure time depends on the chemistry and the weather during install.
Do you test the slab for moisture before coating?
Where there is any doubt, yes, and there are two recognized methods. ASTM F1869 measures moisture vapor emission with anhydrous calcium chloride under a sealed dome. ASTM F2170 reads relative humidity inside the slab from a probe set at 40% of slab thickness. Vapor pressure is what lifts a coating off a floor that looked dry.
What is the difference between epoxy and polyaspartic?
Cure speed and UV behavior. Published figures put polyaspartic at ten to forty-five minutes to cure, with vehicles generally back on it in about one to three days, against roughly four days to a week for epoxy. Epoxy also has poor UV resistance and commonly yellows in sunlight, which is why a sunlit floor usually gets a UV-stable topcoat.
How much does grinding and prep add to the price?
Published national figures for contracted concrete grinding span roughly $1.50 to $6.00 per square foot, and the spread is the point. Light profiling of clean concrete sits at the bottom of that range; stripping thick old epoxy, hardened mastic or levelling severe high spots sits at the top. What your slab needs depends on what is on it.
Will the floor yellow where sunlight reaches it?
Epoxy has poor UV resistance and commonly yellows or chalks in sunlight. That is a property of the chemistry rather than a workmanship problem, and it is the main reason a floor that gets direct sun is specified with a UV-stable topcoat over the system.
Do I need to empty the garage before you arrive?
Clear the vehicles and as much off the floor as you can before the crew arrives, and we will tell you exactly what has to move when we look at the slab. Everything after that is our job: grinding, crack repair, the moisture check and the coating.
Can you coat a basement slab, not just a garage?
Yes. Garage, basement and commercial floors are all on the list, and each gets a system matched to how hard the floor gets used. A basement is the case where slab moisture matters most, so that is where testing before coating earns its keep.
What should I have ready when I call for an estimate?
Three things make the call useful: the rough square footage, what is already on the concrete (paint, sealer, an old coating, patches), and anything odd about it such as a damp patch that keeps coming back or white powdery deposits.
Do you cover Hixson, Ooltewah and Signal Mountain?
Yes. The service area runs from downtown and the Riverwalk up onto Lookout Mountain and Signal Mountain, and out through Hixson, East Brainerd, East Ridge, Collegedale, Ooltewah, Red Bank and Soddy-Daisy across Hamilton County. For larger commercial jobs the crew will travel farther, so it is worth asking.
When is the best time of year to have a floor coated?
It is decided day by day rather than by season. A typical polyaspartic product specifies application between 40 and 90 degrees, relative humidity below 75%, and at least 5 degrees above the dew point. Chattanooga averages 72% relative humidity daily, about 87% in the morning and 53% in the afternoon, so on many days the afternoon is the workable window.
