How Long Does a Garage Floor Coating Take?

Most flake garage floors are installed in one day. Here's what happens hour by hour and when you can park on it.

The short answer

A standard two- or three-car garage is usually finished in one day. You can walk on it that evening and park on it in about 24 hours.

What happens during install day

Morning: we diamond grind the concrete and repair cracks. Midday: the base coat goes down and decorative flakes are broadcast to full coverage. Afternoon: excess flake is scraped and the clear polyaspartic topcoat is rolled on.

What can add time

Heavy oil staining, large cracks, moisture problems or old coatings that must be removed can add extra prep. We'll tell you at the free estimate.
