Garage floor coating in Thornton, Colorado
Thornton is the eastern edge of our primary service area, and we cover all of it, garages and unfinished basements alike. Newer developments north of 136th often have slabs under five years old, which are excellent candidates for coating once moisture readings check out.
Garages in Thornton
What Thornton slabs need, and what we do about it
North Thornton has grown faster than almost anywhere on the Front Range. Heritage Todd Creek, North Creek, Cundall Farms and Trailside were built largely in the last ten years, and many of those garage slabs are under five years old. Young concrete is a great base for a coating, but it is also the concrete most likely to still be releasing moisture and to carry a builder-applied sealer. Both are checked before we quote: the sealer is ground off, and the slab is moisture-tested so we know whether it needs a mitigating primer.
Central and south Thornton is older. Woodglen, Hunters Glen, Eastlake and Original Thornton were built from the 1960s through the 1990s, and their slabs show the usual Front Range wear: surface scaling from de-icer, oil stains and hot-tire marks where the cars park. Those floors clean up completely once they are ground to sound concrete.
Thornton is about twenty-five minutes from our shop by I-25 or E-470, and it is the far east edge of our primary area. Everything inside city limits is at standard pricing with no travel charge. Brighton and points further east are by request, and we will tell you before the quote whether a small travel charge applies. Newer Thornton homes often have unfinished basements too, and those are quoted per square foot.
Searching for epoxy garage floors in Thornton? We install polyaspartic instead. It is UV-stable, cures in cold weather, and does not soften under hot tires, which is why we don't install epoxy in Colorado garages. See the side-by-side comparison.
The process
Five steps on every Thornton floor
Grind, test and repair, base coat, full flake, polyaspartic topcoat. Installed by the owner, usually in one day.
Grind
Diamond grinding opens the concrete so the coating can bite. No acid etch, ever.
Test & repair
Moisture test on every slab. Cracks routed and filled with flexible polyurea.
Base coat
Pigmented polyurea base coat, rolled and back-rolled for full coverage.
Full flake
Vinyl flake broadcast to refusal, so the floor is 100% covered, not sprinkled.
Topcoat
Clear polyaspartic topcoat. UV stable, hot-tire proof, and cures in cold weather.
