Solid-color epoxy
The budget-friendly classic. A clean, seamless solid finish for garages, workshops, and utility spaces that see lighter vehicle traffic.
$3.50–$6 per sq ft installed
Basements & patios
The same flake system, tuned for living spaces and outdoor slabs. Moisture-tolerant primers available for below-grade concrete.
$5–$8 per sq ft installed
Shops & commercial
Shops, pole barns, warehouses, and retail floors. Heavier-build systems with added slip resistance, quoted per project after a site visit.
Custom per-project pricing
How a one-day install works
Prep is 80% of a floor that lasts. Every install follows the same five steps, whether it's a 1-car garage in St. Paul or a 40×60 shop in Lakeville.
1
Free quote
We measure your floor, test the concrete for moisture, and give you a written, fixed price — no per-square-foot surprises later.
2
Diamond grinding
Industrial grinders open the concrete's pores and strip old paint or sealer, so the coating bonds mechanically to bare slab.
3
Repairs
Cracks, pits, and spalls are filled and ground flush. This is where older Minnesota slabs get their strength back.
4
Basecoat + flake
A pigmented polyurea basecoat goes down, then decorative vinyl flake is broadcast to full coverage for texture and grip.
5
Polyaspartic topcoat
A crystal-clear, UV-stable topcoat locks it in. Walk on it in hours — park on it the next day.
Popular flake finishes
Every floor is a full-broadcast flake system — no thin "sprinkle" finishes. These three blends cover most Twin Cities garages; custom blends are available at your quote visit.
Gravel
The classic. Gray, black, and white flake that hides Minnesota road grime between cleanings and matches nearly any garage.
Nightfall
Charcoal and black with a deep-blue fleck. The dramatic pick for finished garages, show cars, and home gyms.
Sandstone
Warm tans and browns that brighten north-facing garages and pair well with wood cabinetry and lake-home style.
Garage floor coating pricing
Short answer: $5–$8 per square foot for a polyaspartic flake floor, fully installed. Square footage sets the base price; the condition of your concrete — cracks, pitting, old coatings to remove — is what moves a quote up or down. Every quote is a fixed written price after we see the floor.
| Floor | Typical size | Polyaspartic flake | Solid epoxy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-car garage | ~250 sq ft | $1,250–$2,000 | $900–$1,500 |
| 2-car garage | ~440 sq ft | $2,200–$3,500 | $1,550–$2,650 |
| 3-car garage | ~660 sq ft | $3,300–$5,300 | $2,300–$3,950 |
| Basement | per sq ft | $5–$8 / sq ft | $3.50–$6 / sq ft |
| Shop / pole barn | per sq ft | $5–$8 / sq ft | Quoted per project |
Ranges reflect typical 2026 professionally installed pricing for the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro and include diamond-grind prep, standard crack repair, basecoat, full flake broadcast, and topcoat. Heavy spall repair, moisture mitigation, or removing a failed existing coating can add $1–$3 per sq ft. Your written quote is fixed before work begins.

Garage floor coating questions, answered
The questions Twin Cities homeowners ask us most — with the short answer first.
How much does a garage floor coating cost in the Twin Cities?
$5–$8 per square foot for polyaspartic flake, installed. A standard 2-car garage usually lands between $2,200 and $3,500, including diamond-grind prep, crack repair, basecoat, full flake broadcast, and topcoat. Concrete condition moves the price more than anything else — which is why every quote starts with a free on-site look at your actual floor.
How long does installation take?
One day for most garages. You can walk on a polyaspartic floor in about 4–6 hours and park on it within 24 hours. Epoxy systems need 2–3 days before vehicles return, which is one reason most of our customers choose polyaspartic.
Is polyaspartic better than epoxy?
For most Minnesota garages, yes. Polyaspartic cures in 24 hours, won't yellow in sunlight, stays flexible through freeze–thaw cycles, and resists hot-tire pickup. Epoxy costs less up front but yellows over time and is more prone to peeling where road salt and moisture reach the slab.
Will it hold up to Minnesota winters and road salt?
Yes — it's built for exactly that. The surface is non-porous, so salt brine and slush sit on top instead of soaking into the concrete and causing freeze–thaw pitting. Squeegee the slush off in winter and the floor underneath stays protected.
What warranty do I get?
15 years against peeling, delamination, and hot-tire pickup on residential installs. If the coating ever lifts from concrete we prepared, we repair or replace the affected area at no charge.
Do I need to empty my garage?
Yes — the floor must be fully clear on install day so we can grind edge to edge. Most customers use a driveway pod, basement corner, or short-term storage. Because the floor cures in 24 hours, everything goes back the next day.
Can you coat over my old epoxy or painted floor?
We grind it off first. A coating only bonds as well as the surface under it, so failed epoxy, paint, and sealers come down to bare concrete before we start. Skipping this step is the #1 cause of peeling floors — and it voids most warranties.
How do I clean and maintain it?
Sweep, and mop a few times a year. Warm water with a mild cleaner handles oil drips and tire marks; the non-porous surface releases grime easily. In winter, squeegee off salt slush as needed. No waxing, sealing, or special products required.
Which areas do you serve?
The full Minneapolis–St. Paul metro — about a 35-mile radius including Edina, Minnetonka, Plymouth, Maple Grove, Woodbury, Eagan, Lakeville, Blaine, and Roseville. See the full list in our service area section.
