Floors That Handle What Garages Go Through

Professional garage epoxy flooring installation in Shreveport built to last.

Your garage floor in Shreveport absorbs the weight of vehicles, the spills from oil changes, and the heat from summer afternoons that stretch well into triple digits. If you are still dealing with cracked or stained concrete, you already know how hard it is to keep clean and how fast the surface breaks down under daily use. Epoxy flooring replaces that rough, porous surface with one that resists chemicals, moisture, and the kind of wear that comes from backing in and out every day.

Get Floored Epoxy installs seamless epoxy systems designed specifically to withstand vehicle traffic and temperature swings common in Texas or Louisiana garages. The installation process includes surface preparation that addresses existing cracks and ensures proper adhesion, followed by application of a moisture-resistant coating that bonds to your concrete slab. You can choose from custom color blends and finish types that match how you use the space, whether that means high-gloss shine or a more textured surface for grip.

If your Shreveport garage needs a durable upgrade that makes cleaning easier and improves how the space looks, schedule a garage evaluation with Get Floored Epoxy to discuss your options.

What Happens During and After Installation

The work begins with grinding down your existing concrete in Shreveport to remove old coatings, dirt, and anything that would prevent the epoxy from bonding correctly. Once the surface is prepped and any cracks are filled, the epoxy base coat goes down, followed by optional color flakes or chips if you want added texture. The topcoat seals everything in place and gives the floor its final finish, whether you prefer a smooth, glossy look or something with more traction.

After the system cures, you will notice that spills no longer soak into the concrete and that sweeping or hosing down the floor takes less effort than it used to. The seamless surface means there are no grout lines or seams where dirt and fluids can settle, and the coating holds up under the weight of trucks, toolboxes, and anything else you roll across it. You will also see that the floor reflects more light, which makes the garage feel brighter without adding fixtures.

The system is built to handle moisture from underneath the slab, which matters in areas where humidity stays high and concrete can sweat during cooler months. Epoxy does not cover structural issues, so if your slab has significant settling or drainage problems, those need to be addressed first. Once the floor is in, it requires no waxing, sealing, or refinishing for years, and most homeowners find that it adds measurable value when it comes time to sell.

We Can Walk Through the Details With You

Homeowners in Shreveport often have similar questions before committing to epoxy, especially if they are comparing it to other garage floor options or wondering how long the work takes.

What makes epoxy better than painting a garage floor?
Epoxy bonds chemically to the concrete and creates a thick, durable layer that resists impacts, chemicals, and moisture. Paint sits on top of the surface and chips or peels under vehicle traffic, usually within a year or two.
How long does the installation take from start to finish?
Most garage floors take two to three days, including surface prep, coating application, and cure time. You will need to keep vehicles off the floor for at least 24 hours after the final coat goes down, and full cure happens within a week.
Why does surface preparation matter so much?
Epoxy only bonds correctly if the concrete is clean, dry, and slightly rough. Grinding removes old sealers and opens up the pores in the slab so the epoxy can lock in, which is what keeps the floor from peeling or bubbling later.
What happens if the concrete already has cracks?
Small cracks get filled during prep using a flexible filler that moves with the slab. Larger structural cracks or uneven settling may need repair work before epoxy goes down, and that gets discussed during the evaluation.
How do I clean the floor after it is installed?
You can sweep, mop, or hose it down with mild soap and water. The surface does not absorb stains, so oil and grease wipe up easily, and you do not need special cleaners or treatments to keep it looking good.
