If you’ve been considering getting either your garage or basement floors coated with epoxy, you might be feeling overwhelmed by the number of decisions you have to make. Let us help make your decision easier with some different factors to consider when selecting the right epoxy for your home. Read on as we discuss how to choose the proper epoxy coating for your home’s garage and basement floors!
How to Choose the Proper Coating
Though this certainly isn’t exhaustive, here are a few tips on how to choose the proper epoxy coating for your garage and basement floors:
Consider Cost
For any home project, the cost is certainly an important factor to consider. Be sure to look for options that fit your budget. Costs vary greatly depending on the type of coating. For example, water-based coatings are typically more expensive on a per-gallon basis than one-part epoxy coatings.
Consider Drying Time
Drying time is another important factor to consider. Some coatings require a full dry time of a few days, while some dry within a day or less. Ask yourself whether you will need the space sooner rather than later or if you can wait for a slightly longer curing process.
Consider Reapplication Needs
Some epoxies are more prone to needing touch-ups than others. Be sure to do your research on whether the type you’re considering will need touch-ups on a regular basis or less frequently. Professional application usually helps lessen this need.
Consider Cleaning Requirements
Be sure you know what to expect from a cleaning need. Some types of epoxy require special cleaners, while some can handle being cleaned with just soap and water. Be realistic with yourself about what you can handle from a cleaning maintenance perspective.
