Professional-GradeGarage Floor Coatings in
Brighton & Ann Arbor, MI
Stop Painting Your Floor. Start Protecting Your Investment.
Most garage floor "coatings" fail because they are essentially just thick paint. They look good for six months, then they peel under the heat of your tires. At Killen Epoxy, we don't do "coatings-in-a-box." We provide a multi-layered, professional-grade flooring system designed to outlast your mortgage.
In the concrete world, prep is 80% of the job. If a contractor shows up with a jug of acid to "etch" your floor, ask them to leave.
We use heavy-duty planetary diamond grinders to remove the "laitance" (the weak top layer) of your concrete. This opens the pores of the slab, allowing our base coat to fuse into the concrete. If there isn't a mechanical bond, the floor will fail. We don't take that risk.
The Killen Difference
Preparation Over Paint
The Anatomy of a Permanent Floor: Our 4-Layer System
We believe in transparency. We don't hide our process behind fancy marketing names. Here is the professional-grade breakdown of exactly what we build on your concrete:
We use heavy planetary grinders to open the concrete's pores for a permanent mechanical bond. We never use acid.
A high-solids moisture barrier that penetrates deep into the slab to prevent peeling, bubbling, and delamination.
Step 1: Diamond Grinding
Step 2: Professional Base Coat
A dense layer of decorative vinyl flakes in your choice of pattern. This adds impact resistance and a non-slip texture.
A UV-stable, chemical-resistant finish that’s 4x stronger than epoxy. It won't yellow and stands up to hot tires.
Step 3: Custom Flake Broadcast
Step 4: Polyaspartic Top Coat

CLEAR ANSWERS FOR Michigan HOMEOWNERS
Frequently Asked Questions
Why shouldn’t I just use a DIY kit from a big-box store?
Those kits are water-based and thin. They lack the solids content to create a real bond. Without diamond grinding, you are just painting over dirt and loose concrete. It will inevitably peel.
How long does the installation take?
Most residential garages in Hartville and Tallmadge are completed in 1 to 2 days, depending on the condition of the concrete and the amount of crack repair needed.
Is the floor slippery when wet?
No. The vinyl flake broadcast creates a tactile surface. We also add an anti-slip aggregate to the final topcoat to ensure safety even when the floor is wet from rain or snow.
Can you fix the cracks in my garage floor first?
Yes. We use a professional-grade mender to fill cracks and divots before we grind. The goal is a seamless, monolithic surface.
Will the color fade if my garage door is left open?
No. Unlike standard epoxy, our professional-grade polyaspartic top coat is 100% UV-stable. It is designed to withstand direct sunlight without yellowing, chalking, or fading over time.
How do I clean and maintain my new floor?
Maintenance is simple. Because the surface is non-porous, dirt and road salt won't stick. A soft-bristle broom and an occasional mop with water and a pH-neutral cleaner are all you need to keep the "showroom" finish.
