Epoxy floors in Kalkaska, Michigan.
Kalkaska sits on US-131, M-66 and M-72, so trucks here carry brine from three routes into shop and garage slabs.
Around Kalkaska
Epoxy floors for Kalkaska.
Kalkaska is a county seat that grew on oil and gas, and shops, pole barns and service garages are common here. Trucks run US-131, M-66 and M-72 all winter, and the brine rides in on the tires and into the pores of the concrete. Freeze-thaw lifts the surface. Oil and fuel soak in too, and a bare slab holds on to them.
The first step is looking at the slab: soundness, cracks and what has soaked in. A diamond grinder with dust extraction cuts off any old coating, cracks and pitting are filled, and a wet base coat bonds to the slab. Flake goes down by hand and gets a clear coat. A new pole barn is easiest, coated before the walls close in. Get a quote by calling.

Questions
Epoxy floors in Kalkaska: questions.
Can an oil-stained shop slab near Kalkaska be coated?
The first step is looking at the slab and what soaked into it. Grinding with a diamond grinder takes off the closed surface and old coatings, then cracks and pitting get filled. We look at your slab and tell you what it needs at quote time.
Do you coat new pole barns around Kalkaska?
New pole barns are the easiest floors, coated before the walls close in. Call while the build is still going and ask for a quote. How long to stay off the floor is told per floor, never as a flat number.
Do you install epoxy floors in Kalkaska?
Yes. Kalkaska is in Kalkaska 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 Kalkaska?
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 Kalkaska 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.
