Epoxy Flooring in Clinton, UT

A lot of the epoxy flooring we install in Clinton replaces something. The city had just 670 residents in 1950 and only 1,768 in 1970. Then it took off: 5,777 people in 1980, 12,585 in 2000 and 23,386 in 2020. Wikipedia notes that Clinton grew especially fast in the 1990s. Garages poured during that boom are now 25 to 45 years old. Many have pitting near the door, oil shadows under the cars and a peeling store-bought coating from years ago.

What we usually find under a Clinton garage door

• Failed kit epoxy. Thin roll-on kits lift under hot tires. The peeled spots trap dirt and salt water.
• Salt scaling. The surface flakes off where slush has melted for many winters.
• Control joint damage. Saw cuts chip at the edges from tires and snow shovels.
• Oil and fluid stains. These soak deep into bare concrete and can block a new coating from bonding.

Every one of these is fixable. The old coating and the weak top layer come off with a diamond grinder. Deep oil gets cleaned and tested. Joints and pits get filled. Then the new system goes on clean, sound concrete.

From sand ridge to subdivision

Before the houses, this was dry farm country. Early settlers called the area The Range, Sand Ridge, The Basin and The Summit. They hauled drinking water in from the Weber River, and dry farming began in 1879. Today almost every resident lives in an urban area, and the 2020 census counted 6,930 housing units with just 1.9% vacant. Homeowner vacancy was only 0.7%, so people who buy here tend to stay. That makes a long-lasting floor worth the investment.

Picking a system for a Clinton home

With 50.8% of households raising children, many garages here double as play areas and storage. A flake floor hides dirt and adds grip. A polyaspartic topcoat holds its color near the open door and cures fast enough to keep the shutdown short. Homeowners with a car project or woodshop often choose a thicker shop-grade coating that handles dropped tools and solvents. For basements, we check the slab for moisture first and choose a primer to suit the result.

Replacing an old coating is different from coating bare concrete

When a floor already has a coating, we have to decide how much of it can stay. Usually the answer is none. Leaving a weak layer in place means the new floor is only as good as the old bond underneath. We grind to bare concrete across the whole slab and edges, then start fresh. Your written quote spells out how much removal the job needs, so the price reflects the real work.

A note on timing

In Clinton we coat most unheated garages between late spring and early fall, when slab temperatures stay in the right range for curing. Heated garages and basements can be scheduled in winter. If you are planning other work, like new garage cabinets or a door replacement, coat the floor first. Cabinets set on a finished floor look cleaner, and the installers will not be working around fresh coating. We give you a date for each step so you can line up the other trades.
