Before and After: Two-Car Garage Transformed with a 1/4" Granite Flake Polyaspartic Floor System

United Floor Coatings • October 20, 2025

A Stunning Garage Makeover in Chapel Hill, NC

When it comes to upgrading your home, few improvements make as dramatic a difference as a garage floor transformation. In Chapel Hill, North Carolina, a homeowner recently turned their dull concrete floor into a sleek, high-performance surface with a 1/4" Granite flake polyaspartic floor system—expertly installed by United Floor Coatings.

This before-and-after project showcases not only aesthetic appeal but also long-term durability, proving that function and beauty can go hand-in-hand in one of the home’s most used spaces.


From Bare Concrete to Beautifully Finished

Before the installation, this two-car garage in Chapel Hill showed typical signs of wear—oil stains, cracks, and a dusty surface that was hard to clean. The United Floor Coatings team began by mechanically grinding the surface to ensure a strong bond, then applied a high-quality epoxy base coat.

Next came the highlight: a 1/4" Granite flake broadcast, adding both texture and depth. To finish, a clear polyaspartic topcoat was applied—known for its superior UV protection, chemical resistance, and glossy, showroom-style finish. The result is a floor that not only looks incredible but performs flawlessly in every season.


Why Homeowners in Chapel Hill Choose Polyaspartic Garage Floors

A polyaspartic garage floor system offers a perfect blend of durability, quick installation, and low maintenance, making it one of the most popular options among Chapel Hill homeowners and real estate professionals alike.

Here’s why:

  • Fast Curing Time: Most installations are completed in a single day.
  • Superior Durability: Resistant to hot tires, abrasions, and chemicals.
  • UV Stability: Won’t yellow, fade, or peel—even under North Carolina sun.
  • Easy to Maintain: A quick sweep or mop keeps it spotless.
  • Elevated Appearance: Decorative flakes like Granite or Tuxedo enhance any space.


A floor like this transforms an ordinary garage into a functional, visually stunning extension of the home—a space built for cars, hobbies, or even gatherings.


Long-Lasting Value for Homeowners and Realtors

A professionally installed polyaspartic garage floor isn’t just a cosmetic improvement—it’s a smart investment. Homeowners enjoy a cleaner, more durable environment, while real estate professionals recognize it as a value-boosting feature that helps properties stand out in the Chapel Hill market.
