I had a pro do mine in epoxy, and my concrete was in pretty bad shape. My townhome is nearly 40 years old, and the concrete had a few cracks, along with the moisture issues that go along with living in Houston. They spent the first day sanding, etching, sealing the cracks and applying a moisture barrier epoxy. The second day they laid the speckle flakes and the epoxy clearcoat. It has a lifetime warranty and I recall it was around $1,650. I'm extremely happy with it and wish I would have done it years ago. I got the vinyl baseboard molding from Home Depot and installed it myself, which took me a couple of hours.

I did my home shop with it.
2yrs and counting.




What an amazing shop! Will add the 5085 to the list, thanks for posting.

What roll-up door company did you use? Is it entirely weatherproof? So far in my research not all roll-up doors are created equal.

Those are called coiling doors. They are typically more expensive than an overhead door. You can get them with insulation and windows as upgrades. Frees up your overhead space.

Hey Shaun, the building was a STAR building (the manufacturer)

They provided the doors. I insulted the shop with R19.

OK, thanks on the roll-up door info guys, I found one company that I like and they will custom cut the width. I'll be doing R19 too and probably putting in a mini split for winter work.

Epoxy coating it's simply the best option for garages, it's super hard, easy to clean, easy to mantain, and really long lasting

I would definitely recommended it
