Garage floor coating in Westminster, Colorado

Westminster stretches from the older neighborhoods near 72nd all the way up to the Broomfield line, and we cover all of it. Two-car garages dominate, and many have moderate cracking from the expansive soils common along the Front Range. Crack repair is part of every job, not an upsell.

Garages in Westminster

What Westminster slabs need, and what we do about it

Westminster is really two cities. South of 92nd, neighborhoods like Shaw Heights, Sheridan Green and the blocks around 72nd and Federal were built in the 1950s through the 1970s, and their garage slabs have the pitting, scaling and deep oil stains that come with fifty winters. North of there, Legacy Ridge, The Ranch, Countryside and Skyestone were built from the 1980s through the 2010s, with bigger garages and slabs in better shape. We work the whole city at the same price.

The one thing Westminster garages share, north and south, is cracking. The clay soils here swell when they are wet and shrink when they dry, and a garage slab sitting on top of that movement develops cracks from the corners and along the control joints. On our floors that is prep, not an extra. We chase each crack open, vacuum it, fill it with flexible polyurea filler and grind it flush before the base coat, so the flake floor goes over a continuous surface.

Westminster sits about twenty-five minutes from our shop by Highway 7 and I-25 or straight down 287, and its northern edge borders Broomfield. That makes north Westminster easy to schedule, and the whole city is inside our primary service area with no travel charge.

Searching for epoxy garage floors in Westminster? 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 Westminster floor

Grind, test and repair, base coat, full flake, polyaspartic topcoat. Installed by the owner, usually in one day.

  1. Grind

    Diamond grinding opens the concrete so the coating can bite. No acid etch, ever.

  2. Test & repair

    Moisture test on every slab. Cracks routed and filled with flexible polyurea.

  3. Base coat

    Pigmented polyurea base coat, rolled and back-rolled for full coverage.

  4. Full flake

    Vinyl flake broadcast to refusal, so the floor is 100% covered, not sprinkled.

  5. Topcoat

    Clear polyaspartic topcoat. UV stable, hot-tire proof, and cures in cold weather.

FAQ

Questions from Westminster homeowners

More answers on the full FAQ.

My Westminster garage floor has several cracks. Will they show through the new floor?
Not if they are prepped properly, which is why crack repair is included on every job. We open each crack, fill it with a flexible polyurea filler that moves with the slab, and grind it flush. Under a full-flake floor the repair is invisible. A crack that is actively moving a lot can eventually show as a faint line, and we will point those out at the quote.
Does a garage floor coating need HOA approval in Skyestone or Legacy Ridge?
Interior garage floors are not visible from the street and are not normally something an architectural committee reviews. Every association writes its own covenants, so a quick check is worth doing.
Do you cover south Westminster near 72nd and Federal?
Yes. The whole city, from Westminster Station up to the Broomfield line, is in our primary service area at the same price. Older slabs in the south take more grinder time, which is priced into the quote up front.
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 do you grind instead of acid etching?
Acid etching only cleans the very top skin of the concrete and leaves behind a weak, powdery layer. Coatings stick to that layer, and then the layer lets go of the slab. Diamond grinding removes it entirely and opens the pores so the base coat locks into solid concrete. It's the difference between a floor that lasts 15 years and one that peels in 2.
