Epoxy Flooring in Willard, UT

Epoxy flooring in Willard often means a shop or outbuilding as much as a house garage. Willard is a small Box Elder County city of 1,978 people (2020), and about a third of residents live in areas the census counts as rural. Its economy grew on fruit crops, gravel and worked stone. Willard Bay State Park lies inside the city limits. Put those together and you get acreage, tractors, trailers, boats and RVs, all parked on concrete.

Boats, RVs and Willard Bay

Willard Bay is a 9,900-acre freshwater reservoir behind a 36-foot earth dike finished in 1964. It is filled with water from the Weber River and used for boating, fishing and camping. Many Willard owners keep a boat or camper close to it. Those garages and pole barns see:

• Fuel, oil and gear lube drips under trailers and engines
• Wet hulls and tires bringing water and mud indoors
• Heavy tongue weight on trailer jacks and stands

A chemical-resistant shop coating keeps fluids from soaking into the slab. A textured topcoat gives footing when the floor is wet.

Historic stone homes

Willard is known for its stone houses. Between 1862 and 1883, stonemason Shadrack Jones quarried local rock and built homes here, and more than thirty still stand. Many are contributing buildings in the Willard Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. Houses that old were built before cars. Their owners usually park in a garage or shop added much later. Those added floors vary a lot in thickness and quality, so we look closely before we recommend a system.

Working on rural concrete

Outbuilding slabs are often poured without the same finish or base as a house garage. Some are thin. Some have no control joints, so they crack in random lines. We check each one for:

• Moisture, especially in buildings without a vapor barrier
• Cracks that are still moving
• Oil and fertilizer soaked into the surface
• Hardness, so we know how aggressively to grind

If a floor is too far gone for a coating, we tell you that at the estimate.

What we install in Willard

Most Willard jobs are shop and warehouse grade systems for outbuildings and flake or polyaspartic floors for attached garages. We also coat basements and mudrooms in older homes. The drive up I-15 is short for us, and we schedule around fruit season and boating season when you need the building in use.

Keeping a shop floor in service

Shop floors work hard, so a little routine care goes a long way. Wipe up fuel and oil spills when you see them, even though the coating resists them. Put plywood or a pad under jack stands and trailer jacks. Sweep out gravel brought in on tires so it does not get ground in. Wash the floor once or twice a year with a degreaser made for coated floors. If the topcoat shows wear in a high-traffic lane years from now, it can be lightly sanded and recoated without starting over.
