The return is more reliable at resale for mid-range and higher-end homes; on a starter home you're mostly buying enjoyment and slab protection, not appraised value." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is it cheaper per sq ft on a bigger floor?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes, up to a point. Mobilisation, dust containment, and edge work are largely fixed costs, so a 1,500 sq ft shop floor typically comes in $1–$2 lower per sq ft than a single-car garage of the same system.

A standard 2-car garage typically lands between $2,200 and $4,500. Metallic runs higher — $9–$12 per square foot — because it's more material, more layers, and hand-worked artistry.

Your number depends on your slab — every quote is on-site and free. System Per sq ft 2-car (≈400–500 sq ft) 3-car (≈600–750 sq ft) Flake epoxy + polyaspartic $4.50–$7 $2,200–$3,500 $3,200–$5,000 Quartz broadcast $6–$9 $2,800–$4,500 $4,200–$6,500 Metallic epoxy + polyaspartic $9–$12 $4,000–$5,500 $6,000–$8,500 Cost Drivers ## What Moves Your Number ### Slab condition Cracks, pitting, spalling. Crack repair and patching typically adds $300–$700 depending on severity. ### Removing an old coating The single biggest add. Existing epoxy or sealer has to come off before we can install: $1.50–$3.00 per sq ft. ### DFW concrete, specifically A lot of slabs poured in this metro are high-PSI. Denser concrete is slower to diamond-grind and eats tooling — real labor cost. It's the reason national price calculators run low for Dallas. ### Moisture Slabs that test high need a vapor barrier before any coating goes down. Skipping this is why cheap floors bubble. ### Size and shape Small or cut-up spaces cost more per square foot than open ones — more edge work, less area to spread setup cost across. ### System choice Metallic is the premium tier — more material, more layers, hand-worked artistry. Flake is the value tier and still lasts 15–20 years when built right. Where the Money Goes ## What's Actually In the Price The resin is a minority of the cost. Prep and labor are the majority. Rough industry shares for a professionally installed coated floor: ### Surface prep (diamond grind + crack chase) 30–45% The largest single share of a real coated-floor cost. Labor and consumable diamonds, not material. ### Crack, spall & joint repair 5–10% Polyurea or epoxy-slurry fills. Bad slabs push this higher. ### Moisture mitigation (only if needed) 0–15% A vapor-barrier primer coat when calcium-chloride or RH testing comes back high. ### Base coat resin 10–15% The pigmented epoxy or polyaspartic base — where most people think the cost lives. It isn't. ### Broadcast media or metallic pigment 5–15% Vinyl flake, quartz aggregate, or metallic mica. Metallic pours use more pigment and more base. ### Topcoat (UV-stable polyaspartic) 10–15% The wear layer. Cutting thickness here is how cheap quotes hit their number. ### Edges, cove base & detail work 3–7% Cut-in around walls, doorways, drains. Small floors carry a bigger share. ### Mobilisation, disposal, insurance 5–10% Trucking, grinder dust containment, disposal fees, general liability. Beyond the Garage ## Cost by Space Type Not every space uses the same chemistry. Outdoor and wet spaces need UV-stable and slip-modified systems, which cost more per square foot than a closed garage. Space Per sq ft Notes Residential garage $4.50–$9 The volume market. Flake on the low end, metallic on the high end. Basement (climate-controlled) $5–$9 Similar to garages; moisture testing is more critical below grade. Patio / pool deck (outdoor) $7–$12 Requires outdoor-rated, UV-stable systems and slip-resistant broadcast. Straight epoxy is not appropriate. Shop / warehouse floor $3.50–$7 Larger areas spread mobilisation. Heavy-forklift traffic may push to industrial urethane-cement systems. Commercial showroom / retail $6–$14 Metallic and designer quartz land here; expect after-hours work and phased scheduling. Countertops (per sq ft of surface) $45–$100 A different product entirely — heat-resistant, food-safe pours with dedicated topcoats. The Alternatives ## Coating vs Every Other Option Option Cost / sq ft Lifespan Downtime Best for Coated concrete (epoxy + polyaspartic) $4.50–$12 15–20 yrs 1–3 days Garages, basements, showrooms Polished concrete $5–$15 20+ yrs 2–4 days Retail, warehouse, modern residential Porcelain / ceramic tile $10–$25 20+ yrs (grout fails first) 3–7 days Wet areas, bathrooms, kitchens Bare sealed concrete $1.50–$3 2–5 yrs per re-seal Hours Utility spaces you don't mind re-sealing Concrete replacement $8–$18 30+ yrs 1–3 weeks Structurally failed slabs only Signed, Then Surprised ## Three Ways a Quote Gets Bigger These are the three most common mid-job change orders in this trade. A good contractor prices them as conditionals up front so nothing is a surprise. ### Undiscovered moisture A slab that looks dry can still push vapor. A calcium-chloride or in-situ RH test up front — before the coating is priced — is how a good contractor avoids surprise bubbling and a mid-job change order. If it tests high, a vapor-barrier primer is the fix; that cost should be quoted as a conditional line, not sprung on you later. ### An old coating found mid-grind Sealer, densifier, or a previous epoxy layer often isn't visible until the diamonds hit it. Removal doubles prep time and eats tooling. Ask before signing what happens if an existing coating turns up — a fair answer is a documented per-sq-ft add, not an open-ended day rate. ### Slab damage revealed once the surface opens Grinding pulls back the top laitance and exposes cracks, delaminations, and spall the naked eye missed. Reputable installers walk the slab with you before starting, mark suspect areas, and price repair against a schedule of unit rates — so the number changes predictably, not arbitrarily. What a Fair Quote Looks Like ## What a DFW Quote Should Itemise Any professional coated-floor quote in this market should either list these items or roll them into a written scope you can point at. If a bid is a single number with no scope attached, you're not being quoted — you're being fished. - › Surface prep method (diamond grind, shot blast) and target CSP - › Crack, spall and joint repair, itemised or as a lump sum - › Moisture mitigation as a conditional line based on test results - › Base coat product name and thickness in mils - › Broadcast media (flake blend, quartz grade) or metallic pigment system - › Topcoat product name, chemistry (polyaspartic), and thickness in mils - › Edge, cove and doorway detail - › Cleanup, disposal, and dust containment - › Written scope, warranty terms, and start/finish dates Honest Take ## When You Probably Shouldn't Hire Us If it's a small patch, a rental you're selling next month, or you want a weekend DIY-kit result, a professional coating is overkill. We're the right call when you want the floor to still look right in ten years. How We Quote ## One Number. No Surprises. Every quote is on-site and free. We measure the space, test the slab for moisture and existing coatings, walk you through the system that fits, and hand you one number — not a line-item pricing sheet designed to grow later.
