A high-quality garage floor coating protects your concrete, enhances the appearance of your space, and improves safety. Over time, even the most durable coatings begin to wear down. At Blue Shield Floor Coatings, we specialize in transforming damaged or outdated floors into strong, attractive surfaces that last for years.
If you are unsure whether your garage floor epoxy needs replacing, watch for these five signs.
1. Visible Cracks and Chips
Concrete is strong but not indestructible. Daily wear from vehicles, tools, and foot traffic can eventually cause cracks or chips to form. Even small imperfections can allow moisture to penetrate the surface, leading to further damage.
If your current coating is cracked or chipped, the concrete underneath is at risk.
Solution: A fresh coating from Blue Shield Floor Coatings fills in minor cracks, seals the surface, and restores a smooth, durable finish.
2. Peeling or Flaking Coating
Peeling or flaking is a clear indication that a coating has reached the end of its lifespan. This issue can occur when the original application was not performed correctly or when years of wear have broken down the protective layer.
Loose coating can create a tripping hazard and make your floor look unkempt.
Solution: Our advanced polyurea systems bond better than standard epoxy, ensuring your new garage floor coating remains intact under heavy use.
3. Permanent Stains
Oil, grease, and chemical spills are common in garages. Once a coating wears down, these substances can seep into the concrete, causing permanent discoloration. Stains not only detract from the appearance but can also weaken the surface over time.
If scrubbing and cleaning do not remove the marks, your coating may no longer be providing adequate protection.
Solution: A new coating creates a non-porous, stain-resistant surface that makes cleaning easier and keeps your floor looking new.
4. Slippery or Unsafe Surface
When coatings lose their slip-resistant texture, the surface can become slick, especially when wet. This creates a safety hazard, particularly in rainy or snowy conditions when moisture is tracked inside.
Solution: Blue Shield Floor Coatings applies textured polyurea coatings that improve traction without compromising appearance.
5. Dull and Faded Appearance
A coating that has faded or lost its shine can make your entire garage look older. Sunlight exposure, vehicle traffic, and regular use can gradually reduce the visual appeal of your floor.
Restoring its protective coating can refresh the look and increase the value of your home.
Solution: We offer a range of colors and flake blends to create a custom look that stays vibrant for years.
