How United Floor Coatings Turned a Standard Garage into a Durable, Designer Space

A Two-Car Garage Gets a Professional-Grade Upgrade

For many homeowners, the garage is more than just a place to park cars—it’s a workspace, a storage area, or even an extension of the home. But with daily wear, tire marks, and exposure to oil or moisture, standard concrete floors quickly show their age. That’s why more homeowners across North Carolina are choosing epoxy and polyaspartic floor coatings from United Floor Coatings to give their garages both beauty and long-lasting protection.

In this project, our team transformed a two-car garage using a 1/4" Gravel flake system, a blend known for its timeless, natural-stone look and subtle contrast. The result? A garage that’s not only visually stunning but also ready to withstand heavy use for years to come.


Why Choose the 1/4" Gravel Flake System

The 1/4" Gravel flake is one of our most popular flooring styles for residential garages. Its neutral tones—mixes of gray, beige, and white—complement virtually any home design, from modern to traditional. But looks are only part of the story.

Key Benefits of This Coating System:

  • Superior Durability: Our commercial-grade epoxy and polyaspartic coatings create a surface that’s resistant to impacts, abrasion, and hot tire pickup.
  • Quick Turnaround: This two-car garage was completed in just one day and ready for light traffic in under 24 hours.
  • Low Maintenance: Unlike raw concrete, epoxy-coated floors are easy to clean—just a quick sweep or mop keeps them looking like new.
  • Slip-Resistant Texture: The embedded flake system provides traction, making it safer for everyday use.
  • UV and Chemical Resistance: Perfect for garages that double as workshops or storage areas.


The United Floor Coatings Process

Every successful installation starts with proper surface preparation—and that’s where United Floor Coatings stands apart. Our team doesn’t cut corners. We mechanically grind the surface to open the concrete’s pores, ensuring maximum adhesion. Then, we apply our high-solids base coat, broadcast the 1/4" Gravel flake evenly across the floor, and seal it with a durable polyaspartic topcoat for a smooth, glossy finish.


This meticulous process results in a floor that’s stronger, longer-lasting, and more beautiful than DIY kits or cheaper alternatives.


Designed for Real Life

Whether you’re parking vehicles, using your garage as a gym, or hosting weekend projects, your flooring should be built to perform. The 1/4" Gravel flake epoxy floor combines function and aesthetics—giving homeowners a professional look with industrial-grade performance.


If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your garage, now’s the time. A one-day installation means minimal disruption, and every project comes with a lifetime warranty for total peace of mind.
