Epoxy Flooring FAQ — Wilmington & New Castle County

How much does epoxy flooring cost in Wilmington, DE?

A standard 2-car garage (400-500 sq ft) costs $1,200-$2,500 for a chip flake finish. Premium metallic finishes run $1,800-$3,500. Commercial epoxy runs $3-$12 per sq ft by system. Every estimate is free and on-site.

How long does an epoxy floor last?

10-20 years residential with proper prep. The single biggest factor is diamond grinding versus acid etching — we grind. Commercial high-traffic floors last 5-10 years before a recoat, which costs a fraction of the original install.

How long does installation take?

1-2 days for most residential jobs. Walk-on in 24 hours, vehicles in 3-7 days. Commercial schedules can be phased around your operating hours.

Is epoxy slippery when wet?

Glossy epoxy can be. We add anti-slip aggregate to the topcoat on patios, pool decks, laundry rooms, and commercial kitchens at no extra charge. Garage and basement floors can have it added on request.

Can you coat over painted concrete?

Yes — the diamond grinder removes paint down to sound concrete. Coating over paint without grinding is the #1 cause of epoxy delamination, which is why we never skip it.

When is the best time of year to install epoxy?

Any season — we work year-round. Concrete temperature needs to stay above 50°F for curing, which matters for unheated garages in January. We schedule around it.
