Garage Floor Coating - The Great Lakes

08/26/2026

Thinking of getting a professional garage floor coating? Ask your bidding contractor this simple question: Is your direct-to-concrete primer (base) coat a moisture v***r barrier?

If the contractor uses a polyurea or polyaspartic as the primer coat, THIS IS NOT A MOISTURE V***R BARRIER. Choose a contractor that uses a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer coat…never a polyurea-polyaspartic. Polyurea-polyaspartics should be used as clear topcoats only!

Application of a proper moisture v***r barrier is one of several critical steps in the installation of quality garage floor coatings.

No moisture v***r barrier? Look for another contractor.

The simplest and best way to ensure you get a quality garage floor coating is to take the time to ask the contractor the right questions.

Why due diligence matters when looking for a garage floor coating:

When homeowners take time to compare systems, they begin asking better questions.

✅ Does the system include a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer?
✅ What is the total mil thickness?
✅ How many coats are applied?
✅ Is there one clear polyaspartic topcoat or two?
✅ What does the warranty cover? What exclusions apply?

These questions often reveal significant differences between concrete coating systems.

Homeowners should take time to compare quotes, review the full warranty in writing, understand all exclusions, ask how the system handles moisture, and evaluate the complete coating system, not just the product name.

A reputable contractor should encourage homeowners to make an informed decision, not pressure them into signing before they understand what they're buying.
