What affects the price

Why your floor lands where it does in the range

Size

Square footage is the biggest driver. A 3-car costs more than a 2-car, but the per-square-foot price drops as the floor gets bigger.

Condition of the slab

Pitting, spalling, scaling and heavy oil staining take extra grinding and fill time. A smooth, clean slab is at the low end of the range.

Moisture

Every slab gets a moisture test. High readings mean a moisture-mitigating primer, which adds material and a little time. We'll tell you before you sign.

Cracks and joints

Hairline cracks are included. Wide cracks, heaved joints and large gouges get routed and filled with a flexible polyurea filler, priced by the linear foot.

Existing coatings

Peeling epoxy, paint or a builder-applied sealer has to be ground off completely. That's more diamond time and more dust to manage.

Add-ons

Cove base, steps, custom flake and anti-slip are priced as line items so you can see exactly what each adds.

Radiant heat in the slab

Heated slabs need the heat off 48 hours ahead, temperature checks during install, and shallow-only crack repair so the tubing is never touched. It's a flat add-on, and a heated garage is one of the best places to install in winter.

Add-ons

Priced as line items

So you can see exactly what each one adds and say yes or no.

  • 4" cove base / stem walls

    Coats the short concrete wall around the slab so the floor wraps up and there's no dirty seam at the edge.

  • Step coating

    Steps into the house or down from the man-door get the same flake system so nothing looks unfinished.

  • Custom flake blends

    Mix our standard blends or match a color you have in mind. Small upcharge for special-order flake.

  • Anti-slip topcoat additive

    A fine grit broadcast into the topcoat for patios, shops and anyone who tracks in snow.

  • Radiant-heated slab protocol

    For slabs with in-floor heat: heat-down and warm-up schedule, slab temperature monitoring on install day, and tube-safe shallow crack repair with no drilling. A flat line item so the tubing is never a question.

FAQ

Pricing questions

How much does a garage floor cost?
Typical ranges: 1-car $1,800–2,600, 2-car $2,800–4,200, 3-car $4,000–5,800. Basements, patios, shops and commercial floors are quoted per square foot. Every job is quoted in person after a moisture test and a look at the slab, and the quote is the price.
Why is there a range?
Slab condition. A smooth, clean slab with a couple of hairline cracks is at the low end. A pitted floor with an old peeling coating, wide cracks and a high moisture reading needs more grinding, more filler and a primer, and lands at the high end.
Is the quote free? Do I have to be home?
Free, no obligation. The owner comes out, measures, tests moisture and walks the slab with you. It takes about 20 minutes, and it helps if you're there so we can talk through flake colors and any add-ons.
Who actually shows up to install?
The owner who quoted it, with a helper on the bigger floors. We don't sub out labor or run multiple crews. The person who promised you the floor is the person standing on it.
