There are all sorts of garage floor solutions. Some are professional solutions, such as our decorative chip floor coatings. Some are DIY, such as the epoxy paint kits sold at the big box stores or the snap together tiles. But the one we would recommend the least has to be the large, rollout floor mats people use to cover their garage floors.
Driving past a condo building where new siding is being applied. Since the old siding is currently removed from many areas, issues with the underlying wood are evident.
But new siding is being placed right over the damaged wood to hide the issues – no repairs are taking place before the new siding is installed. The phrase “Lipstick on a pig” immediately comes to mind.
Just superficial or cosmetic changes - not a real solution.

Just Because You Can, Doesnt Mean You Should. This is a saying that I constantly reiterate to my staff and sometimes to our customers. Usually, its because someone has asked us to utilize our epoxy coatings in a way that is outside of their appropriate usage model. Or, we receive a request to install other types of concrete coatings or decorative concrete overlays that we have purposely chosen not to install.
