Epoxy Flooring in Hickory Creek, TX

Epoxy flooring in Hickory Creek covers more than attached garages. The town incorporated in 1963 with about 219 residents. It counted 1,422 people in 1980, 3,247 in 2010 and 4,718 at the 2020 census, then about 5,668 by the 2023 estimate. That steady growth means a mix of slabs: some homes from the 1980s, plenty of newer builds, and a share of larger lots with detached shops and barns.

Room to spread out

The 2020 census classified 12.5% of Hickory Creek residents as rural, which is unusual for a town this close to Dallas. Wikipedia puts the town 30 miles north of downtown Dallas, covering about 4.6 square miles with very little water inside its limits. On bigger lots we see:

• Detached shops and garages used for trucks, tractors, mowers and projects
• Workbenches and welding areas where sparks, solvents and oil land on the floor
• Equipment parking where heavy tires and dropped tools wear concrete fast

For these, we often recommend a thicker Commercial Floor Epoxy style build, even in a private shop, with a chemical-resistant topcoat.

Tree City USA

Hickory Creek was recognized as a Tree City USA in August 2008. Trees are part of the town's character, and they also drop leaves, pollen and sap that get tracked into garages and shops. A sealed floor sweeps clean. Bare concrete holds stains from wet leaves and tannins. A full Epoxy Flake broadcast is the easiest finish to keep looking clean through fall.

A Lake Cities neighbor

Hickory Creek is one of the four Lake Cities. Hickory Creek is also the name of one of the waterways the 1954 Garza-Little Elm Dam combined with Lake Dallas and Little Elm Creek to form Lewisville Lake. Many residents have a boat or lake gear, so many of our Hickory Creek garages get the same treatment as lakefront homes: extra build at the trailer jack and a topcoat that resists fuel.

Newer homes, smoother slabs

About 1,859 housing units stood here in 2020, up from 808 in 2000. A garage poured in the last 20 years is often in good shape, but its surface is usually smooth and hard. We diamond grind every slab so the coating bonds. Owners of newer homes often pick a Polyaspartic system for its quick return to service, and some ask for Metallic Epoxy in a game room or home gym.

Owners who stay

The homeowner vacancy rate was only 1.3% in 2020, and the median age was 44.6. Many Hickory Creek owners plan to stay put for years, which is when a coating that lasts pays off. We build floors to the thickness the product calls for, grind every slab and fill cracks first. A floor that is prepped right is worth more to someone who will use it for the next decade.
