Lockhart homes, shops and the slabs under them

Lockhart is one of the cities we drive to from Seguin, the same as Luling and Selma. The calls here look like the ones we get everywhere around us: homeowners with a garage or shop floor that's peeling or stained, and small business owners who need a working floor back in use.

Most people know the city by its historic square, with the Caldwell County Courthouse and the clock museum. What shapes our work is the slab under each house or shop, because a garage poured decades ago and one poured last year need different prep, and I won't know what yours needs until I've checked it.

Concrete floor services we bring to Lockhart

We do the full run of concrete floor work in Lockhart, from garage and shop coatings to polished, stained and resurfaced floors, pool decks and terrazzo. Every job gets planned from the slab up. I come out, walk the floor and take the slab readings, because the slab decides which system will hold. Then I tell you what's wrong with the floor and what it'll take to fix it, before we talk colors or finishes.

  • Epoxy Floor Coatings

    Lockhart garages, shops and workrooms that take traffic, spills and dropped tools are where epoxy earns its keep. We grind the slab open first so the coating bonds instead of sitting on top.

  • Commercial & Industrial Epoxy Floor Coatings

    Small businesses in and around Lockhart need floors that handle carts, forklifts and cleaning chemicals. We plan the coating around your traffic and your hours so the floor gets back in use.

  • Garage Floor Coatings

    A garage slab with hot-tire marks, oil stains or peeling store-bought paint is the most common call we get. We strip what's failing, grind and fix cracks, then lay a coating built for cars.

  • Polyaspartic Floor Coatings

    When you can't give up the garage or shop floor for long, polyaspartic is the faster-curing option. It still needs the same grinding underneath, so we don't cut prep to save a day.

  • Metallic Epoxy Flooring

    For a home office, studio or showroom where you want the concrete to look like something, metallic epoxy gives a marbled finish. We level and smooth the slab first because every flaw shows through.

  • Urethane Cement Flooring

    Restaurant kitchens and wash-down areas see heat, hot water and harsh cleaners that plain epoxy can't take. Urethane cement handles that abuse, and we install it at the thickness the space calls for.

  • Polished Concrete Flooring

    Shops, storefronts and homes with sound slabs can skip a coating and polish the concrete itself. We grind it in stages to the sheen you want, so there's nothing on top to peel.

  • Stained Concrete Flooring

    Patios, living areas and shop fronts with plain gray concrete can take a stain that adds color. We clean and open the slab first so the stain takes evenly.

  • Terrazzo Flooring

    Lobbies, entries and busy commercial spaces that want a hard-wearing floor with real character often choose terrazzo. We check that the slab underneath is sound and flat enough before we commit to it.

  • Basement Flooring

    Below-grade rooms, where a house has one, see more slab moisture than other floors. We test for it before picking a coating, because moisture pushing up is what usually lifts these floors.

  • Concrete Grinding & Surface Preparation

    Old sealer, paint, glue or a smooth troweled finish will keep any new floor from bonding. We grind the slab to clean, open concrete, which is the step that decides whether a coating holds.

  • Concrete Sealing

    Driveways, patios and bare garage slabs soak up oil, water and stains when nothing protects them. We clean the concrete and apply a sealer that suits how the surface is used.

  • Concrete Resurfacing & Overlays

    A slab that's pitted, flaking or patched over the years can often be resurfaced instead of torn out. We repair the worst spots, then bond a new overlay layer across the whole surface.

  • Self-Leveling Concrete & Overlays

    Uneven slabs in older homes and add-ons make new flooring sit wrong. We pour a self-leveling layer, a cement that flows flat on its own, so the next floor starts level.

    Explore service
  • Pool Deck Coatings & Resurfacing

    Backyard pool decks take splash water, pool chemicals and bare feet, and old coatings crack or turn slick. We repair the concrete and lay a textured finish that grips better underfoot.

    Explore service
  • Concrete Floor Stripping & Removal

    A peeling DIY kit, old tile adhesive or a failed coating has to come off first. We strip it to bare concrete so the new floor bonds to the slab, not the old mistake.

Working in Lockhart: permits, licenses and what moves the price

Lockhart has its own permit office and its own contractor license, and it helps to know how each works before you book. Here's how we handle them, and what actually moves the price of a floor job here.

Permits and contractor licenses in Lockhart

Lockhart's Building Division issues permits for construction work, along with the plan review and inspections that go with them. Review starts once the permit is paid for, and the city says it can take up to 10 business days. That's why any permit wait goes on the calendar before I book the crew, so we're not grinding on a floor the city hasn't cleared.

You can check a contractor here, too. On a new subdivision or new facility, each contractor has to hold a City of Lockhart contractor's license, which expires every December 31, so ask for a current one on that kind of job. We're fully licensed and insured, and that's the first thing you should ask anyone who wants to work on your floor.

  • I check with the city's building office about your job before we start.
  • If a permit is needed, we apply for it as the contractor.
  • You get a copy of the permit for your own records.

What moves the price and the schedule

The slab sets most of the price. A floor that's sound and clean needs light grinding, while one with old coating, oil soaked in, cracks or low spots needs stripping and repair first, and that prep is where the hours go. Size matters, and so does the system. Polished or stained concrete, a garage coating and a full overlay each take different work and material.

The schedule turns on the same things, plus how long the coating needs before you walk or drive on it and whether a permit wait comes first. I walk the floor, check the slab and give you a written estimate, so you see the prep, the system and your price on paper before you decide anything. If the slab isn't ready for what you want, I'll say so there.

  • Cracks, chipped spots and low areas get fixed before any coating goes on.
  • Slab readings tell us whether moisture will push a coating off.
  • Faster-curing systems shorten the wait but don't shorten the prep.

Slab problems we look for around Lockhart

Most floors we're called to have the same few problems we see across the cities around Seguin. These are the ones I check for first, because each one changes what the floor needs before a coating goes on.

  • Peeling store-bought garage paint

    Roll-on kits from the hardware store are the most common failure we see in garages. They sit on a smooth, unground slab, so hot tires lift them in patches. All of it has to come off before a real coating goes down, or the new one fails the same way.

  • Oil soaked into the concrete

    Shop and garage slabs that have held cars or equipment for years usually have oil worked into the surface. A coating won't stick to it, so we clean and grind until we reach concrete that will hold a bond, and I'll tell you if a stain runs too deep.

  • Moisture coming up through the slab

    A slab can look dry and still push moisture up from below, and that moisture is what usually lifts a coating from underneath. Some slabs need a primer made for it, and a few aren't ready for a coating at all yet.

  • Cracks and old patches

    Most older slabs have cracks, chipped edges or patches from past repairs. We fill and grind them flush so they don't show through the finish, though a crack that keeps moving can come back through any coating, and I'll tell you that up front.

  • Concrete too smooth to bond

    A shiny, hard-troweled slab or one with old sealer looks clean but won't let a coating bite. We grind it to an open profile, a texture a bit like fine sandpaper, so the coating has something to grab.

Why homeowners and shop owners hire us

Most floor failures we're called to fix go back to a slab nobody checked first. Here's how we work so yours doesn't end up the same way, starting with the step that gets rushed most.

We check the slab before we sell anything

I spent years on the sales side of flooring, and I watched a lot of floors fail because nobody checked the slab first. So when I come out, I take the readings myself and look for what's wrong before I recommend anything. If the slab isn't ready, I'll tell you, even if that means we don't get the job.

The prep is the part you won't see once the floor is done, and it decides whether the coating holds. Our own crew does the grinding, repair and install with me running the job, so the person who checked your slab is the one making sure it's prepped right. I've run the business that way since I started it in Seguin in 2021.

  • Licensed and insured for floor work

    We're fully licensed and insured. Ask for proof from us and from anyone else you're comparing, because a floor job puts grinders, coatings and a crew in your garage or shop, and you want to know who covers it if something goes wrong.

  • Readings taken on site, not guessed

    I come out myself and take the slab readings instead of guessing from photos, because a slab can look fine and still not be ready. Those readings are what the estimate is built on, so the system we recommend fits your floor.

  • A straight answer on your system

    If a simpler coating will hold on your slab, I'll say so, and if the system you saw online won't, I'll say that too. The choice is yours, but you'll make it knowing what your concrete can take.

  • Satisfaction guaranteed on every job

    That's our promise on every floor, from a single-car garage to a working shop. When you're ready, call (830) 340-0036 or send the form, and I'll come out and look at your slab.

Lockhart floor questions, from permits to price

These are the questions people ask us before a floor job in Lockhart, from permits to digging to price. Where the city has a rule that touches your job, the answer says so plainly.

How much does an epoxy garage floor cost in Lockhart, TX?

I can't give you an honest number until I've seen your slab, because prep is the biggest part of the price and it changes from one garage to the next. Floor size and the system you pick move it too, as covered above. Call (830) 340-0036 and I'll walk the floor and put your price in a written estimate.

How do I get underground lines marked before digging in Lockhart?

Call Texas811 by dialing 8-1-1 before any outdoor work that digs 18 inches or more, and they'll send a technician to mark the underground utility lines at no charge. The city wants the confirmation number from that call on the permit request before it's submitted. Most of our work stays on top of the slab, so this only comes up when an outdoor job digs that deep.

Do Lockhart city rules apply if my home is outside city limits?

City codes and ordinances apply to property inside Lockhart city limits, while property in the extraterritorial jurisdiction, the area outside the limits where the city still has some say, falls under its subdivision and signage rules. If you're not sure which side your home sits on, I'll sort that out when I check with the city about your job.

How do I find out if my floor project needs a permit in Lockhart?

Contact the city before you apply, because Lockhart asks anyone unsure about permit requirements to reach out first. Staff may also check whether your project needs Planning or Engineering approval before a permit application goes in. If we're doing your floor, that call is mine to make.
