Vehicles leak and drip different kinds of fluids on the surface of your parking garage. The oil spills can not only leave unsightly stains on the floor but corrode and destroy the surface over time. Vehicles carry salt and sand into the parking garage during times of adverse weather. We provide a heavy floor coating to help repel oil, brake fluid, grease, and de-icing salts from your garage surfaces.

Our expert team will apply a stain-resistant seal that penetrates the concrete. In fact, you need two coats to get the required quality. We can spray roll or brush it on the surface. If your floor is already marred with heavy stains, we will start the process with a degreasing agent by applying it about a week before applying the seal. One application of degreasing is enough to scrub the oil and fluid stains on your floor. Our epoxy coating comes in colored and clear options. We will also cast in paint chips or aluminum oxide to make the surface slip-resistant and look nicer.

Over 50,000 injuries and at least 500 deaths happen in parking garages across the Canada. every year. Most of these accidents occur when drivers try to navigate tight corners or shadowy passages.

The right parking garage floor coating helps reduce the risk of injuries in your parking garage. Adding aluminum oxide to a floor coating will help prevent dangerous slips and falls.

The slip-resistant additive won’t change the appearance of the color of the floor surface.
