Stained, dusty or cracked concrete in your garage or shop? We grind, test and repair it first, then lay down a coating that bonds.
What goes into an epoxy floor coating in Seguin?
Seguin Epoxy Floors & Concrete Polishing puts epoxy floor coatings on garage, shop and basement floors in Seguin, TX, and every job comes in two parts, preparing the concrete and then applying the coating over it.
Most calls start with a floor that's showing its age, like oil stains that won't scrub out, dust coming off bare concrete or an old coating peeling up in patches. I'll tell you what's wrong with your slab before I tell you what it takes to fix it, because the fix depends on what's underneath.
Price comes down to the size of the floor, how many cracks and low spots need repair and whether old paint or sealer has to come off first. The schedule turns on those same things plus what the moisture test shows, and the written estimate I give you after checking the slab puts a figure on your floor. If the concrete itself is in rough shape, concrete resurfacing and overlays may need to come before any coating.
- Covers garage, shop and basement floors, wherever you've got bare or worn concrete to coat.
- Includes grinding the slab clean and checking it for moisture before any coating is mixed.
- Old paint, sealer, grease and oil come off first, since a coating won't hold over them.
What happens when you call us about an epoxy floor?
From the first call to the final walk-through, you deal with me and our own crew. Here's how a typical epoxy floor job runs, so you know what happens at each step.
Call or send the form
Call (830) 340-0036 or send a message through the form, and we'll get back to you to set up a visit. Our hours run seven days a week, so a call after work is fine.
I walk and test the floor
I come out myself, check the slab for moisture and cracks and ask how you use the space, whether that's parking, a workshop or storage. You get a written estimate based on what the slab actually showed, not a guess over the phone.
Our crew preps and coats
If you go ahead, we set a date and our own crew does the grinding, repairs and coating, with me running the job. Prep takes most of the effort, and it's the part you won't see once the coating is down.
We walk the finished floor
Before we pack up, I walk the finished floor with you so you see exactly what you're getting. We clean up before we leave, and it's satisfaction guaranteed on every job.

These are the questions people usually ask me at the estimate, about price, prep and what a slab needs before it's coated. If yours isn't here, ask it when I come out.
How much does an epoxy floor coating cost around Seguin, TX?
Epoxy floor coating in the San Antonio area usually costs about $4 to $7 per square foot, counting materials, floor prep and application. That's what the market runs, not a quote, and a floor that needs more repair or has old coatings to strip lands higher. You get your own figure in the written estimate after I check the slab.
Why does concrete need to be ground before an epoxy coating?
Epoxy needs concrete that's clean, dry and free of old coatings, curing compounds, grease and oil, and grinding or shot blasting is how you get it there. Both suit the job, so it's fair to ask any crew which one they use. One coating maker's guide says acid etching or pressure washing is rarely suggested, because the concrete soaks up the extra water.
What happens if you put epoxy on damp concrete?
Moisture in the slab can discolor epoxy, interrupt its curing and make it delaminate, which means it lifts off the concrete. One maker's guide says to test for moisture before coating even when the slab has a vapor barrier, because most floors on grade have one and moisture can still be a problem. That's why I take readings at the estimate, and if your slab is too wet I'll tell you before you spend anything on a coating.
What is the best way to fix cracks in concrete before an epoxy coating?
The best way is to repair cracks, chipped spots, worn joints and uneven areas near drains and doorways before any coating goes on. The other route is a coating system built to make up for their thickness, but I'd rather fix the floor than cover the problem. I'll show you which spots need work when I come out.
How do I get old paint off a concrete floor before epoxy?
Old paint usually has to be ground off the concrete, since a new coating won't hold over a layer that's already letting go. Removing old paint may release lead paint dust, which is toxic, so tell me about any painted floor at the estimate and we'll go over how we handle the dust before we start. Heavy layers sometimes call for concrete floor stripping and removal first.
Does a flooring contractor need a license to work in Seguin, TX?
Yes, any contractor hired for a phase of a building job has to be licensed with the City of Seguin and register with the city before a permit is issued. The city also requires contractors to provide a certificate of liability insurance, so it's fair to ask to see it. We're fully licensed and insured, and I'll show you ours.
Epoxy floor coatings in Seguin and the cities around it
Seguin's Building Official issues permits, and the city's list of work that needs no permit names painting and minor repairs but not floor coatings, so I ask the building office about your job and we apply as your contractor if one's needed. Clay soil across Guadalupe County swells and shrinks in ways that can crack slabs, and we see those cracks here and in New Braunfels and Schertz.
