Around Alanson
Epoxy floors for Alanson.
Alanson is small: 778 people, incorporated in 1905, with a swing bridge over the Crooked River and a former railroad depot. The buildings are older in-town garages, homes and shops, with cottages and pole barns on the roads toward Crooked Lake and Burt Lake. Bare concrete in older buildings soaks up oil and salt. Drips and road salt are what show first.
US-31 goes through downtown and M-68 starts here, running east along Burt Lake to Indian River, so winter vehicles come in with brine on the tires from both. That salt soaks into raw concrete and freeze-thaw lifts the surface. Every slab is different, so the first step is looking at yours. Call and ask for a quote.

Questions
Epoxy floors in Alanson: questions.
Can an older Alanson garage slab be fixed before coating?
Cracks, pitting and spalled edges are filled and cut flush before the base coat, after the grinder takes off any old paint, sealer or coating. What is needed depends on the slab, so ask for a quote and we look at it.
Does epoxy go on a basement near Crooked Lake or Burt Lake?
Basements are checked for moisture coming up through the slab first. That check matters for lake-country places that sit closed up. Bare basement concrete sheds dust, which a flake floor stops. Ask for a quote.
Do you install epoxy floors in Alanson?
Yes. Alanson is in Emmet County, inside the Northern Michigan area we cover. Call (989) 255-1435 or send a photo of the slab and a rough size. We look at the concrete before anything is quoted.
Can I just roll a hardware store kit onto my garage floor in Alanson?
You can, but it usually lifts by spring. A roller and a jug of etching acid do not open the troweled surface of the concrete, so the coating dries onto a skin. Hot tires and salt brine peel that skin off. Grinding is the difference.
Can a floor in Alanson be coated in the winter?
Yes. Epoxy cures inside a closed building, so this is year-round work. Before the snow is easier, though: the garage is easier to empty and nobody is driving a salted vehicle back onto a new floor. How long to stay off it is something we tell you for your floor when we quote it.
