The workhorse floor that happens to be beautiful.

Full Broadcast Only

Why we refuse to do 'sprinkle' flake

There are two ways to install flake. A partial broadcast scatters a light handful of flake into the base coat — it’s cheap, fast, and every imperfection, roller mark, and future scratch shows straight through. A full broadcast throws flake to complete rejection: the floor literally can’t absorb another chip. Excess is scraped and recovered, and what remains is a dense, uniform, three-dimensional surface.

Full broadcast is the one worth paying for. It uses several times the material, and it’s the difference between a floor that looks like granite and a floor that looks like someone seasoned the concrete.

The flake itself does real work: it adds natural slip resistance, hides dust and tire marks between cleanings, and masks the crack repairs and slab patches underneath — permanently.

Beyond the Garage

Where flake systems work hard

Garages & workshops

The classic application: hot-tire proof, impact-tolerant, and forgiving of everything a working garage throws at it.

Basements & laundry rooms

Moisture-tolerant with a vapor-barrier base, and the texture stays grippy around washers and utility sinks.

Covered porches & patios

UV-stable polyaspartic won't chalk or yellow outdoors, and we spec heavier anti-slip grit for rain-exposed concrete.

Kennels & pet facilities

Seamless, scratch-resistant, and sanitizable — no grout lines for odors to live in. A favorite for vets and groomers.

Commercial back-of-house

Stockrooms and prep areas get the same system with a thicker build coat, rated for pallet jacks and rolling loads.

Stairs & steps

We coat connected steps and landings in the same blend with aggressive grit — a finished look with real traction.

How It's Installed

Five steps, and none of them get skipped.

Fast doesn’t mean rushed. Every step below exists because skipping it is what turns a ten-year floor into a two-year floor.

  1. Slab inspection & itemized quote

    The floor gets measured and checked for moisture, cracks, spalling, and old coatings — all of which change the scope. You get an itemized price before any work begins.

  2. Diamond grinding, not acid etching

    Planetary grinders mechanically profile the concrete so the coating can key into it. This is the step budget jobs skip, and it's the most common reason coatings peel.

  3. Repair & moisture control

    Cracks get chased and filled, pits patched flush. If the slab tests wet — common in NC basements and older garages — a moisture-vapor barrier goes down first.

  4. Base coat & broadcast

    A pigmented base coat is rolled into the profiled concrete, then flake or metallic pigment is applied to full coverage — no thin spots or bare patches.

  5. Protective topcoat

    A UV-stable, chemical-resistant clear coat locks it all in. Polyaspartic topcoats cure fast enough that most floors are back in service quickly.
