Garage Floor Epoxy
in North Kamloops, BC
Diamond-ground prep. UV-stable topcoat. Ready for vehicles in 24 hours.
Garage floor epoxy is our most requested residential service, and for good reason — a properly installed epoxy system transforms a dusty, stained concrete slab into a durable, easy-clean surface that holds up to vehicles, chemicals, and BC Interior winters. We diamond-grind every slab to CSP 3–4 profile, moisture-test before applying anything, repair cracks and joints, apply a 100% solids epoxy base coat, broadcast decorative flake or finish smooth, and seal with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat. The floor is ready for light foot traffic in 12 hours and vehicles in 24.
Garage Floor Epoxy in North Kamloops: what you need to know
North Kamloops has some of the city's oldest garage slabs — we routinely encounter hairline cracking from settlement, surface laitance that prevents coating adhesion, and old oil staining from decades of vehicle use. Every North Kamloops garage gets crack repair, diamond grinding back to solid concrete, and a moisture test before the first drop of epoxy goes down. It's more prep work, but it's what makes the coating last.
Properties and context in North Kamloops
Older residential neighbourhood with heritage-era homes, 1960s–70s builds, and newer infills on smaller lots. A mix of small commercial and light industrial properties along the main corridors. Compact lots with attached or detached single-car garages are typical.
North Kamloops is a tight-knit community with a long history in the city, and it's been undergoing a quiet renewal with newer infill homes alongside original long-term residents. There's a strong community identity here.
Concrete conditions in North Kamloops
North Kamloops has some of the oldest residential concrete in the city. Hairline cracking from foundation settlement is common, and many slabs show surface laitance — the weak carbonated top layer that forms on older concrete and prevents coating adhesion unless properly ground away. We always grind back to solid concrete in this neighbourhood, not just clean the surface.
Climate and floor performance in North Kamloops
North Kamloops sees cold winters, river valley humidity, freeze-thaw cycles, some wind exposure from the Thompson canyon. We spec epoxy and polyaspartic systems for this area with the local conditions in mind — UV stability, thermal flexibility, and moisture management are all part of our system selection process, not afterthoughts. A coating system that performs well in a temperate climate and a properly spec'd system for the BC Interior are not the same product, even if they look similar on the day of install.

How a Garage Floor Epoxy install works in North Kamloops
Free on-site quote
We come to your garage, assess the slab condition, check for moisture, measure the space, and discuss finish options with real samples. No guessing — the quote is based on what we actually see.
Surface prep (Day 1)
Diamond grinding with industrial planetary grinders opens the surface to the profile epoxy needs to bond. We vacuum with HEPA systems as we go. Cracks get repaired with semi-rigid polyurea or rigid epoxy mortar depending on type.
Base coat + broadcast
100% solids epoxy primer and base coat go down. Decorative flake is broadcast while the base coat is still wet, then knocked down and vacuumed once cured. Colour and flake density match your sample selection.
Polyaspartic topcoat
The UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat seals the system and provides the hard, scratch-resistant surface. It cures in 2–4 hours at normal temperatures and reaches full hardness within 72 hours.
