Protecting your garage floor can be creative and fun and inviting space in your garage space is important to a lot of our clients but it is extremely important to clients who use their garages as workshops. A garage should be an area where your tools, your car, and you feel taken care of! Once the walls are painted the color that makes you happy, your tools are in standard or customized garage cabinets, the only thing left is the floor. A floor coating, cover, or paint is not only aesthetically important but physically important for your vehicle and the concrete beneath it. Concrete garage floors, when they are professionally installed and decorated, can transform the appearance and curb appeal of an entire home.Some coatings range in their appearances and in their durability! Some floors are simply not properly prepared for what they’re going to be used for, so it is important to know what type of environment you’re going to be exposing your floors to before installing a coating or covering.Some other options for protecting the appearance of your concrete include concrete flooring coverings! These options can include rubber coatings and more unconventional garage floor carpeting. Again, these both present pros and cons depending on what they’re going to be used for.Garage Floor Coatings
