Epoxy Flooring in Flower Mound, TX

Epoxy flooring in Flower Mound is mostly a garage business, because Flower Mound is mostly houses. Census survey figures summarized by Point2Homes show 85.9% of the town's housing units are detached single-family homes and 82.5% are owner-occupied. The same data shows 40.3% of homes were built in the 1990s, more than any other decade, and puts the median year built at 1997. That adds up to thousands of two- and three-car garages with slabs around 25 to 30 years old.

How the town grew

Flower Mound voted to incorporate on February 25, 1961, to avoid being annexed by Irving. It stayed small for years. The town counted 1,685 people in 1970 and 4,402 in 1980. Construction of DFW Airport, about 4 miles south, set off rapid growth after it opened in 1974, and the 1990 census counted 15,527. By 2000 the population was 50,702, and the 2020 census counted 75,956. Most of the slabs we see here were poured in that 1990 to 2000 rush.

SMART Growth and what it means for garages

In 1999 Flower Mound adopted its Strategically Managed And Responsible Town (SMART) Growth Program, followed by a formal plan in 2000. The goal was environmentally sensitive development and less sprawl. A 1999 Attorney General opinion said the town could cap how many building plans it approves. Census survey data summarized by Point2Homes shows only about 3% of the town's homes were built in 2020 or later. Many owners here are improving the house they already have, and the garage floor is a common place to start.

What a 1990s Flower Mound garage usually needs

• Removal of old coatings. Many of these garages have been painted or kit-coated once already, and the old layer is peeling at the tire paths.
• Stain treatment. Twenty-plus years of oil drips leave contamination that has to be ground out or treated before anything bonds.
• Joint and crack work. Control joints chip at the edges, and hairline cracks open over time. We fill and grind them flush with Concrete Crack Repair.
• A coating sized to the space. A three-car garage with a workshop corner may get flake in the parking bays and a tougher topcoat at the bench.

Systems Flower Mound owners ask about

Most estimates here compare a full Epoxy Flake floor against a Polyaspartic system. Flake hides dust and tire marks and adds grip. Polyaspartic cures faster and resists UV, which helps on west-facing garages where the door stays open in the afternoon. Some owners finishing a game room, gym or home office over a slab ask for Metallic Epoxy instead, which gives a poured, swirled finish.

Shale gas, soils and slabs

Much of Flower Mound sits over the Barnett Shale, and Wikipedia notes that gas drilling near neighborhoods has divided the community. The town is in the Eastern Cross Timbers subregion, and the Denton County soil series named on its Wikipedia page are Silawa, Nawo and Gasil. We cannot tell you how the ground under a specific house behaves. We can tell you what your slab is doing now: which cracks are fine hairlines and which ones have moved and should be looked at by a foundation contractor before a coating goes over them.

Garages with a second job

With median household income listed at $118,763 in a 2011 Census estimate and 71.2% of 2020 households made up of married couples, many Flower Mound garages double as a gym, a workshop or storage for sports gear. We ask how you use the space before choosing a system. A home gym corner may need extra thickness under racks. A woodworking bench area needs a topcoat that shrugs off glue and finish drips. A plain parking bay can take a standard flake build.

Pricing

Cost depends on square footage, the condition of the slab and which system you choose, so we price after we measure. Call (972) 645-4494 for a free on-site estimate in Flower Mound.
