Frequently Asked Questions

20+ answers to the most common questions Savannah homeowners and business owners ask about epoxy flooring.

Does Savannah's humidity affect epoxy floors?+

Yes — high humidity can cause blushing, hazing, or adhesion failure if a floor is installed incorrectly. We use moisture-tolerant primers, vapor barriers, and humidity-rated resins specifically formulated for coastal Georgia's climate so your floor cures hard and stays bonded.

How long does epoxy take to cure in Savannah's climate?+

Standard epoxy is walk-on ready in 12–24 hours and vehicle-ready in about 72 hours. With our polyaspartic systems we can have you back on your floor the same day and parking on it within 24 hours — even in the middle of August humidity.

How much does an epoxy floor cost in Savannah?+

Most residential garage floors in Savannah, Pooler, and Richmond Hill run $4–$12 per square foot depending on the system. Metallic, flake, and polyaspartic floors sit at the higher end. Every quote we provide is free, on-site, and itemized.

How durable is epoxy flooring?+

A properly installed epoxy or polyaspartic system will last 15–20+ years residentially and 8–15 years in heavy commercial use. It resists oil, gasoline, hot tires, salt, and household chemicals.

How do I maintain my new epoxy floor?+

Sweep regularly, mop with warm water and a pH-neutral cleaner, and wipe up oil or chemical spills promptly. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh acids.

Do I need to prep my garage floor before installation?+

We handle all prep. We diamond-grind, repair cracks, fix moisture issues, and vacuum every speck of dust before priming. Proper prep is 80% of why an epoxy floor lasts.

Can I park hot tires on an epoxy floor?+

Yes, on our polyaspartic top coats. Hot tire pickup is a real failure mode for big-box DIY kits, but our pro systems are specifically rated to resist it.

How long does the installation take?+

Most residential garages are completed in 1–2 days. Polyaspartic systems can wrap in a single day with the floor walk-on ready that evening.

Do you offer a warranty?+

Yes — every residential install includes a written 15-year warranty against peeling, delamination, and hot-tire pickup. Commercial warranties range from 3 to 10 years depending on system.

Can you install over an existing epoxy or painted floor?+

Sometimes. If the existing coating is well-bonded and not flaking, we can sand/grind and re-coat. More often we recommend full removal of failed coatings for a fresh start.

What colors are available?+

Hundreds. Solid colors, dozens of vinyl flake blends, metallic pigments in copper / bronze / blue / silver / gold, and quartz aggregates. We bring samples to every estimate.

Is epoxy slippery when wet?+

Not when finished with broadcast flake, quartz, or an aluminum oxide non-slip additive — all of which we offer at no extra cost.

Will epoxy yellow in the sun?+

Standard epoxy will. That's why we always top with a UV-stable polyaspartic or polyurethane that prevents yellowing for the life of the floor.

Do you serve commercial customers?+

Yes — warehouses, retail, restaurants, medical, manufacturing, and industrial throughout coastal Georgia. USDA/FDA compliant systems available.

Do you offer financing?+

Yes — 0% APR on approved credit for residential projects over $1,500.

What is polyaspartic flooring?+

Polyaspartic is a next-generation aliphatic polyurea coating that's faster curing, more UV-stable, more abrasion-resistant, and more flexible than traditional epoxy. It's the premium choice in coastal Georgia.

Can epoxy be installed in a basement?+

Yes — and we use vapor-barrier primers specifically for below-grade installations to handle the moisture vapor drive common in Savannah-area basements.

Do you do pool decks and patios?+

Yes — using UV-stable, cool-deck-rated, slip-resistant exterior coatings designed for coastal exposure.

How do I get a quote?+

Call (912) 555-0371 or fill out the quote form on our website. We'll text a confirmed appointment within one business day and come to you for a free, no-obligation on-site estimate.

Are you licensed and insured in Georgia?+

Yes — fully licensed, bonded, and insured with $2M in general liability coverage.

What's the difference between flake and metallic?+

Flake uses colored vinyl chips broadcast into the base coat for a uniform textured look. Metallic uses mica pigments that flow during cure for a 3D liquid-marble appearance. Both are stunning — different aesthetics.

Do you do residential and commercial?+

Both, equally. We install single-car residential garages and 50,000+ sq ft warehouses with the same crew and the same standards.

How soon can you schedule my project?+

Most projects can be scheduled within 1–3 weeks of estimate. Emergency commercial work can often be expedited to weekends or overnight.
