Textured Floors That Hide Wear and Add Grip

Flake epoxy flooring installation in Shreveport for garages, shops, and commercial spaces that need durability and traction.

Flake epoxy flooring gives you a surface that does more than look good. The color flakes broadcast into the wet epoxy create texture that improves slip resistance and hides small imperfections, scuffs, and dirt better than a solid-color finish. If your garage, workshop, or commercial space in Shreveport sees heavy use, wet conditions, or equipment traffic, flake systems give you a durable, forgiving floor that holds up without showing every mark.

Get Floored Epoxy installs flake epoxy systems using color blends that range from subtle to bold, depending on the look you want and how the space gets used. After the concrete is prepped and the base coat is applied, colored flakes are scattered across the wet surface until the desired coverage is reached. Once the flakes are locked in with a clear topcoat, you get a seamless, textured floor that resists impacts, stains, and moisture while staying easy to clean.

What You Get from a Flake System Installation

The installation in Shreveport begins with grinding your concrete to remove old coatings and open up the surface for proper adhesion. Once the base coat goes down, color flakes are broadcast by hand or machine, and the amount of coverage determines how much texture and color variation the floor will have. After the flakes are applied, a clear topcoat seals everything in place and adds a protective layer that resists abrasion and chemicals.

Once the floor cures, you will notice that it feels slightly textured underfoot, which helps with traction in areas that get wet or greasy. The flakes also break up the appearance of the floor, so dirt, dust, and small scratches blend into the surface instead of standing out like they would on a solid color. The system holds up well under rolling toolboxes, vehicles, and foot traffic, and the seamless finish makes sweeping and mopping faster than it would be on bare concrete or tile.

Flake epoxy is one of the most versatile systems because it works in both residential and commercial settings, and the color blends can be customized to fit the look of the space. Full-broadcast systems, where flakes cover the entire surface, provide the most texture and hide the most imperfections, while partial-broadcast systems show more of the base color and create a cleaner, less busy appearance. The floor does not require waxing or resealing, and most systems last for years without needing refinishing or repair.

Let Us Clear Up What You Are Curious About

Homeowners and business owners in Shreveport who are considering flake epoxy usually want to know how much texture it adds, how the color blends work, and how it compares to other epoxy finishes.

What is the difference between full-broadcast and partial-broadcast flake systems?
Full-broadcast systems cover the entire surface with flakes, giving you more texture and a busier appearance that hides dirt and imperfections. Partial-broadcast systems leave some of the base coat visible for a cleaner, more uniform look with less texture.
How do flake floors improve slip resistance?
The flakes create a slightly rough surface that gives your feet more grip, especially when the floor is wet or oily. The topcoat can also include slip-resistant additives if you need even more traction.
What color options are available for flake systems?
You can choose from pre-mixed blends that combine multiple colors or create a custom mix to match your space. Options range from neutral grays and tans to bold blues, reds, and multicolor blends.
Why do flake floors hide imperfections better than solid colors?
The random pattern of the flakes breaks up the visual surface, so small scratches, dirt, and scuffs blend into the texture instead of standing out against a single-color background. This makes the floor look cleaner with less effort.
How long does a flake epoxy floor last?
With proper installation and normal use, flake epoxy floors last ten years or more without needing resurfacing. High-traffic commercial spaces may see wear sooner, but the system can be recoated without removing the existing floor.
