Is a polyaspartic coating right for my concrete floor?
A polyaspartic floor coating is a fast-curing finish we lay over concrete in West Hollywood garages, basements and businesses. It gives you a tough, glossy floor, and you get the room back much sooner than you would with epoxy.
Most people who call us have a garage, basement or shop floor that's stained and dusty, and they can't give up the space for a week. Sometimes an old coating has to come off first, and that's a job for concrete floor stripping. The price moves with the size of the floor, how much grinding and crack repair the slab needs, and the finish you choose. The schedule depends on the slab too, because a new pour or damp concrete means waiting before we can coat. After I've seen your floor, you get a written estimate that lists each step in order.
How we put down a polyaspartic floor coating
People pick polyaspartic to get the room back fast, so I put our care into the slab underneath. First we test the concrete, because what's in and under the slab decides whether any coating holds. Then we grind the surface so the coating has open concrete to grip, fill the cracks and chips, and vacuum up the dust. After that we lay the coats, broadcast any flakes while the base is still wet, and keep fresh air moving through the space while it cures. If the tests say your concrete isn't right for polyaspartic, I'll tell you, and we'll talk through other options.
Polyaspartic isn't the only finish we install. If you want a poured, swirling look with real depth, metallic epoxy flooring gives you that, though it takes longer to cure. If the floor sees heat, spills and steady washing, urethane cement flooring is usually the tougher choice.
Flake finish for garages and storage
We scatter colored vinyl flakes into the wet base coat and seal them under a clear top coat, so the floor hides dust and tire marks and has a little texture. It suits most garages and workrooms that get used every day.
Solid color or clear finish
A single color, or a clear coat over the ground concrete, gives shops, studios and rooms people see a clean, even look. It shows dirt more than a flake finish does, so it's best on floors that get swept often.
If an old coating is already peeling, or you're working toward a move-in or opening date, call now rather than later, because the slab testing needs to be planned in.
What happens when you call us about a polyaspartic floor?
I'll walk you through it in order. Here's who does what from your first call to the clean floor, and what you'll know at each step before the work starts.
Call or send a message
Call (213) 329-1493 or use the form, and tell us where the floor is and how you use it. We'll get back to you and set a time for me to come look.
I look at the slab
I come out, look at the concrete, measure, and ask how you use the space. Then we send a written estimate that lists each step in order and what drives your price, and if anything changes after you sign, California requires that change in writing with your right to cancel spelled out, so you'll get it that way from us.
We build in every wait
Once you say yes, we set a schedule with every test and wait built in, planned around the city's construction hours. West Hollywood allows construction from 8 AM to 7 PM on weekdays and interior work only on Saturdays, with none on Sundays or city holidays, and the city enforces those hours with stop-work orders and fines.
Our crew preps, coats, cleans
Our own crew does the prep, the coating and the cleanup, so the people on your floor are the ones I planned the job with. The work is backed by our satisfaction guarantee.

(213) 329-1493What a polyaspartic floor coating job involves in West Hollywood
The city's Building & Safety Division reviews permit applications and inspects construction projects in West Hollywood, and whether a coating job on its own needs a permit is something I check rather than guess. During the estimate we look at that for your job, and if a permit is needed, we handle the application and the city's paperwork for you. If the floor is in a store, office or other commercial property, the city requires a licensed contractor for the building permit, and we're licensed and insured.
Many of the slabs we coat here are under older homes and apartment buildings, where garages are tight and the concrete often has old paint, sealer or patches that must come off before anything new will stick. We're based in West Hollywood and work across the cities around it in Los Angeles County, and we see the same tired garage floors on jobs in Beverly Hills and Santa Monica.
Polyaspartic floor questions from West Hollywood owners
How soon can I walk or park on a polyaspartic floor?
You can usually walk on a polyaspartic floor in 4 to 6 hours and park on it within 24 hours, compared with 5 to 7 days for epoxy. That fast cure is the main reason people choose it over epoxy.
How much do polyaspartic floor coatings cost in West Hollywood?
Installed polyaspartic floor coating across the US usually costs about $4 to $9 per square foot, and that's the general market range, not our price. Where your floor falls depends on its size, how much grinding and repair the slab needs, and the finish you pick, and the written estimate gives you your own number.
Can moisture in my concrete make a polyaspartic coating fail?
Yes, moisture in the slab can ruin the coating. One maker says its polyaspartic doesn't breathe, so moisture in the concrete builds up underneath and eventually makes the coating blister and peel away from the floor. The condition of the slab decides whether the finish holds, and that's why we test it before we coat.
Will a polyaspartic garage floor be slippery when wet?
It can be, because one maker's data sheet says all floor coatings may become slippery when wet. Where grip matters, that maker describes broadcasting an anti-slip grit by hand into the wet coating and rolling over it to seal it in, and we can talk through whether your floor needs that.
How long does new concrete need to cure before it can be coated?
One maker says new concrete should cure for at least 30 days before its coating goes on. If you're pouring a new slab, plan the coating for after that wait, and we can set the date once the pour is done.
What is the best way to choose between polyaspartic and epoxy for my garage?
Choose polyaspartic when getting the garage back fast matters most, or when sun hits the floor, because it's UV stable and resists yellowing and fading. Epoxy cures more slowly but can suit some finishes and budgets better, and I'll tell you which one fits after I've seen your slab.
Related floor services to consider with polyaspartic
If you'd rather have a glossy, flowing finish with depth and movement in it, metallic epoxy suits living areas and showrooms where the floor is the feature.
For kitchens, food prep rooms and wash-down floors that face hot water and harsh cleaners every day, urethane cement holds up where thinner coatings can struggle.
