Most residential garage or basement epoxy jobs are completed in 1–2 days. Larger commercial projects may take 2–5 days. The timeline depends on floor prep needed, the epoxy system chosen, and the square footage. We'll give you a firm schedule during your free estimate.

You don't need to leave your entire home, but the area being coated should be cleared of vehicles, furniture, and belongings before we arrive. Epoxy fumes are minimal with modern systems, but we recommend good ventilation. For garage projects, most homeowners simply stay inside the house.

Foot traffic is typically safe after 24 hours. You can drive on a garage floor after 72 hours (3 days). Full cure — meaning maximum hardness and chemical resistance — takes about 7 days. We'll give you exact timing based on the specific product used in your installation.

Standard epoxy can be slippery when wet. That's why we offer anti-slip additives — such as aluminum oxide or decorative flakes — that provide excellent traction without sacrificing the clean, polished look. All of our garage and commercial floor systems include slip-resistant options at no extra charge.
