Garage Floor Coating in Bartlett, IL

This Bartlett garage had bare, worn concrete. We diamond-ground the slab and taped off the walls. Then we put down a base coat, broadcast gray flakes and sealed it with a clear, slip-resistant topcoat.

The result is a floor that hides dirt, wipes clean and stands up to winter.

In Bartlett, as in most of the western suburbs, a garage floor sees salt and slush all winter and hot tires all summer. The flake system handles both, and its texture gives shoes some grip on a wet day.

Two-car garage. Full-broadcast flake system with a clear topcoat, one day on site.

Winter is hard on garage floors. Cars carry snow and road salt into Bartlett garages all winter. Bare concrete soaks it up, and freeze-thaw cycles can make the surface flake and pit.

A sealed floor helps. A coated floor keeps salt water on top, where you can rinse it off.

Plan ahead. Standard epoxy needs a warm slab, so spring and fall fill up fast. Ask early for your spot.

HOA? If your home is in an HOA, check whether they need to know about the work.

Lots of garages, lots of slabs. Most of Bartlett is neighborhoods of single-family homes, many built from the 1980s on, with attached two- and three-car garages. Slabs that age often have shrinkage cracks and worn, dusty patches near the door.

Not only homes. Bartlett also has business parks, such as Brewster Creek, with warehouses and shops on large slabs. Those floors suit polished concrete or a commercial coating, and we grind and repair them first in the same way.

Three counties, one village. Bartlett spreads across Cook, DuPage and Kane counties, about 12 miles southwest of our Palatine base, so a visit to measure your garage is an easy trip.
