Common questions

How long does an epoxy floor last?

A professionally installed epoxy floor can last for many years with basic care. Abstract Floor Coatings backs residential systems with a warranty that is typically lifetime, depending on the system.

How much does an epoxy garage floor cost?

Typical ranges are about $7 to $9 per sq ft for solid color, $7.50 to $10 for decorative flake, and $11 to $14 for metallic epoxy. The final price depends on size and concrete condition and is confirmed at a free on-site estimate.

Do you pressure wash or grind the concrete?

Every floor is diamond ground to a CSP 2–3 profile, edges included. Pressure washing does not create the texture a coating needs to bond, which is why poorly prepped coatings peel.

How long does installation take?

Most residential floors are completed in 1–2 days. You can walk on the floor within hours and park on it shortly after it fully cures.

What is the difference between flake and metallic epoxy?

Flake systems have a textured, speckled finish that hides dirt and adds grip, ideal for garages and patios. Metallic epoxy has a glossy, marble-like look with depth and shimmer, ideal for showpiece garages, homes and showrooms.

Can epoxy handle Eastern Washington weather?

Yes. High-performance coatings resist stains, moisture, chemicals, and UV damage, and hold up to hot summers and winter road salt tracked into garages.

What surfaces can be coated?

Garage floors, basements, patios, driveways, shops, showrooms and commercial floors.

Is installation messy?

No. The crew uses professional prep and dust control and cleans up afterward.

Which areas do you serve?

Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, Walla Walla, Yakima, Spokane and the surrounding Tri-Cities and Eastern Washington area.
