United Floor Coatings • October 9, 2025

A Stunning, Long-Lasting Upgrade That Combines Strength, Style, and Easy Maintenance

A Premium Finish for Everyday Performance

When it comes to garage flooring, homeowners are looking for more than just aesthetics—they want durability, longevity, and easy maintenance. That’s exactly what this 1,000 square foot garage with a ¼” granite flake epoxy finish delivers. Installed by United Floor Coatings, this floor combines professional-grade materials and expert installation to create a seamless, high-gloss surface that stands up to daily use while enhancing the overall look of the space.

The ¼” granite flake blend is one of the most popular choices for residential garages, thanks to its natural stone appearance and excellent resistance to wear and tear. It’s a versatile finish that fits both modern and traditional home styles, offering a clean, timeless look that never goes out of style.


Why Choose a ¼” Granite Flake Floor

Homeowners often ask what makes flake epoxy systems superior to bare concrete or DIY paint kits. The answer lies in the multi-layer system and professional installation process that ensure both beauty and performance:

  • Surface Preparation: The concrete is diamond-ground to open the pores and remove any imperfections, ensuring a solid bond.
  • Basecoat Application: A high-solids epoxy basecoat is applied to anchor the flake system.
  • Flake Broadcast: ¼” granite-colored vinyl flakes are broadcast to full coverage for even texture and color consistency.
  • Topcoat Finish: A UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat seals the surface, delivering a glossy, stain-resistant finish that’s ready for use in just 24 hours.


The result is a garage floor that’s easy to clean, slip-resistant, and built to last for decades—all while maintaining a polished showroom appearance.


The Benefits Go Beyond Aesthetics

A ¼” granite flake system doesn’t just look great—it performs exceptionally well under pressure. Key benefits include:

  • Durability: Resists impact, tire marks, oil stains, and chemicals.
  • Low Maintenance: A simple sweep or mop keeps it looking new.
  • Safety: Slip-resistant texture provides traction even when wet.
  • UV Stability: Won’t yellow or fade over time.
  • Value Boost: Adds long-term value to your property with a professional, finished look.


Whether it’s housing vehicles, storing tools, or doubling as a home gym, this coating transforms your garage into a functional, inviting space that complements the rest of your home.
