Epoxy Flooring in Auburn, KY

Epoxy flooring in Auburn is mostly about homes. The city is small, at 1.83 square miles with 1,589 residents and 710 housing units in the 2020 census. That means most of our work here is one- and two-car garages, outbuildings and the occasional basement. We treat each one like a full project, with the same grinding and repair we use on large floors.

A short history

Auburn was first called Federal Grove. The present name dates from the 1860s and honors Auburn, New York, the former home of several early settlers. The state assembly incorporated the city in 1865 and again in 1878. Just east, the South Union Shaker Village was founded in 1807 and closed in 1922. Its 1824 Centre Family dwelling now houses the Shaker Museum, and the district is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Why Auburn floors vary so much

In a town this old, garages were added over many decades. We see:

• Detached garages with thin, cracked slabs
• Additions poured next to older concrete, with a joint between them
• Floors with old paint or sealers that are peeling
• Newer attached garages with smooth, slick concrete

Each one needs a slightly different start. Old coatings get ground off. Cracks get filled. Smooth new concrete gets ground until it is rough enough to bond.

Our recommendations for Auburn homes

For most garages here, our Garage Floor Coating with an Epoxy Flake Floors broadcast is the practical choice. It hides dust and tire marks, gives some grip and is easy to sweep. We top it with a Polyaspartic Floor Coating clear coat when the garage faces west or the door stays open in the afternoon. Polyaspartic resists yellowing in sunlight better than epoxy does.

For a basement or a finished bonus room, Metallic Epoxy Floors can replace carpet with a glossy, seamless surface. For a farm shop or equipment building outside town, the thicker Shop & Commercial Floor Epoxy build is a better match.

Fixing the slab first

Our Concrete Crack & Slab Repair service handles the problems that would show through a new coating. That includes cracks, chipped joints, pitted spots and small low areas. We grind repairs flush so they disappear under the finish. If a slab has heaved or sunk badly, we will tell you before you spend money on a coating.

Caring for a coated floor

A coated garage floor is simple to keep up. Sweep or use a dust mop often, because grit is what dulls a topcoat over time. Rinse or mop with a mild cleaner when it gets muddy. Wipe up oil, brake fluid and battery acid soon after they land, even though the coating resists them. Put a pad under kickstands and jack stands so they don’t press into one spot. Avoid dragging heavy steel items across the floor. With that care, a properly prepared and coated floor stays easy to clean for years. If you ever get a chip, call us. Small spots can usually be repaired without redoing the whole floor.
