Epoxy Flooring in Carrollton, TX

Epoxy flooring in Carrollton often starts with a slab poured during the city's fastest growth. Carrollton had 13,855 residents in 1970. By 1980 it had 40,595, a jump of 193%, and by 1990 it had 82,169. ACS figures summarized by Point2Homes show 17.8% of homes were built in the 1970s and 28.4% in the 1980s, the largest share of any decade. The median year built is 1988. Many of these garages have never had a real coating, or have one that is long past its life.

What we find in a 1970s or 1980s garage

• Settled and cracked slabs. After 35 to 50 years, most floors have a few cracks and some chipped joints.
• Old patches. Past repairs may be soft, hollow or a different texture from the rest of the floor.
• Deep oil staining. Decades of drips soak in and must be ground out or treated before a coating will hold.
• Worn surface paste. The top layer of concrete wears down and dusts, leaving a weak surface.

Our prep handles all of this. We grind the whole floor, cut out weak patches and fill with Concrete Crack Repair before any coating goes down.

A city in three counties

Carrollton sits in portions of Dallas, Denton and Collin counties. Its 2020 census count was 133,434, with 53,080 housing units. About 58% of occupied homes are owner-occupied and the rest are rented. We coat garages for both. Landlords often pick a solid-color Garage Floor Epoxy system for easy cleaning. Owners more often choose a full Epoxy Flake floor.

Industrial and commercial floors

Carrollton has more industry than most suburbs around the lake. Its 2019 top employers on Wikipedia include Western Extrusions, AER Manufacturing, Cencora, Halliburton and Thomson Reuters, and the city is the headquarters of FASTSIGNS International. Manufacturing, distribution and office buildings all have concrete that takes a beating. Our Commercial Floor Epoxy work here covers:

• Production and assembly areas with cart and forklift traffic
• Shop and maintenance rooms exposed to oil, coolant and solvents
• Break rooms and restrooms that need a sealed, washable floor
• Retail and restaurant back-of-house space

We can phase the job by area and plan around shifts.

Koreatown and retail space

Carrollton has the largest Korean community in Texas, and Koreatown at Old Denton Road and the President George Bush Turnpike holds many restaurants and shops. For retail floors that need to look good, a Metallic Epoxy or a clean solid color with a durable topcoat are the usual choices. Kitchens and prep areas need a different, textured system, and we will talk through that at the estimate.

Moving older floors forward

Carrollton was incorporated in 1913 after the Dallas-Wichita Railroad came through Trinity Mills in 1878, so a few slabs near the older parts of town are much older than the boom years. Older concrete can be softer at the surface, uneven or patched many times. We test hardness and moisture on those floors and talk through whether a coating, a resurfacing layer or simply a sealer makes the most sense.

Heat and scheduling

Carrollton's record high is 112°F, set in 1980. Epoxy has a working temperature range, so summer jobs start early in the day. A Polyaspartic coat can be a better fit when timing or temperature is tight. Call (972) 645-4494 for a free on-site estimate.
