To prepare for a garage epoxy installation, remove vehicles, belongings, and other obstacles from the garage so the crew has full access to the floor. We'll explain any additional requirements before work begins.

Clear the floor completely

Vehicles, storage, tools, and anything sitting on the floor generally need to be removed before work begins. The crew needs the entire surface accessible for preparation and coating.

Plan where things will go for the duration — a driveway, a neighbor's garage, or temporary storage all work.

Plan for the timeline

Installation time depends on surface preparation, the coating system, and curing conditions. We'll discuss the expected timeline and when your floor can safely be used before work begins.

Georgia's heat and humidity play a role in curing conditions, which is one more reason to work with a local company that plans around them.
