Protect Your Garage Floor From Daily Wear

Professional epoxy garage floor coatings installed throughout Tetonia and surrounding areas.

Your garage floor in Tetonia takes constant abuse from tire marks, oil drips, snow melt, and road salt tracked in during winter months. Bare concrete absorbs these contaminants, leaving stains that spread and weaken the surface over time. An epoxy coating from TVS Coatings LLC seals the concrete completely, creating a chemical-resistant barrier that wipes clean and reflects overhead lighting back into the space.

We apply epoxy systems designed specifically for residential garages in Tetonia, offering multiple finish options including decorative flake blends and quartz aggregates that add texture and visual interest. The coating bonds directly to prepared concrete, forming a seamless surface that resists moisture penetration and abrasion from vehicle traffic. You can choose from several color combinations to match your home or create a workshop atmosphere that feels intentional rather than utilitarian.

If your garage floor shows oil stains, surface dusting, or discoloration, reach out to TVS Coatings LLC to discuss coating options suited to your space in Tetonia.

What Happens During the Installation

We start by grinding the concrete surface in your Tetonia garage to remove contaminants, open the pores, and create a profile that allows the epoxy to grip. This step removes old sealers, oil residue, and surface laitance that would otherwise prevent proper adhesion. Once the floor is clean and dry, we fill any cracks or divots with repair compound and let it cure before applying the base coat.

After the epoxy cures, your garage floor will have a hard, glossy finish that no longer absorbs liquids or collects dust. Spills from antifreeze, motor oil, and windshield fluid sit on top of the coating instead of soaking in, so you can wipe them away with a rag or mop. The surface also reflects light from your fixtures, making the entire space noticeably brighter without adding bulbs.

We apply a topcoat layer that adds UV stability and additional abrasion resistance, extending the life of the system even in high-traffic areas near entry doors or workbenches. The entire process typically takes two to three days depending on garage size and temperature, and the floor is ready for vehicle traffic within 72 hours of the final coat. This timeline accounts for curing conditions common in Tetonia during most of the year.

Questions About Garage Floor Coatings

Homeowners often ask about durability, preparation requirements, and how the coating holds up under specific conditions before scheduling an installation.

How long does an epoxy garage floor coating last?
With proper surface preparation and typical residential use, epoxy coatings last between 10 and 20 years. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping help maintain the finish and prevent abrasive dirt from dulling the surface.
What happens if the concrete has existing cracks?
We fill and repair cracks before applying the coating to prevent them from telegraphing through the epoxy. Minor cracks are routed out, cleaned, and filled with flexible repair compound that moves slightly with seasonal concrete expansion.
Why is surface preparation necessary before coating?
Epoxy bonds chemically to clean, porous concrete. Grinding removes contaminants and opens the surface so the coating can penetrate and lock in place rather than sitting on top and eventually peeling.
What type of finish works best in a cold climate?
Flake finishes with a clear topcoat provide slip resistance and hide minor imperfections that may appear from seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. The topcoat adds UV protection and prevents yellowing or chalking from sunlight exposure through garage windows.
When can I park my vehicle after installation?
You can walk on the floor after 24 hours, but wait 72 hours before parking vehicles to allow full curing. Heavy loads or turning tires on partially cured epoxy can leave marks or cause delamination.
