What To Look for When Choosing Garage Floor Installers
Whether it's for a home garage or a commercial shop, your garage floor is going to take a lot of abuse. You want a flooring solution that can stand up to high usage, liquids that cause stains, heavy dropped items, and more.
However, this isn't always the case. If your garage only has a bare concrete floor, it's going to be vulnerable to cracking, as well as soaking up spills like a sponge to create permanent ugly stains.
If you have a bare concreate garage floor, hiring garage floor installers to improve it is a great idea!
What to look for in garage floor installers and their products?
1. Certified Experience
There are plenty of contractors out there who will do flooring - but how much experience do they really have? The longer a garage flooring contractor has been in business, the better. Be sure to check their references and reviews to make sure they can back up their warranty claims!
2. Detailed Written Estimates
One of the biggest red flags of a dodgy home/commercial improvement contractor is if they refuse to give written estimates, or don't include any details in the estimate, just a price tag. In both cases, this suggests they're setting up to add more fees and charges on later by giving inaccurate estimates.
Contractors who provide detailed estimates, with cost breakdowns are going to be much more reliable when it comes time to pay.
3. Strong Warranty Protections
Flooring installation is easy to mess up. For example, many resinous floor coats will be substantially weakened if the underlying concrete is not properly prepared before installation. You need to know that your garage floor installers will stand by their work and fix any mistakes that might have been made. Always ask about their warranty before signing any contracts.
4. Great Products
There are numerous types of garage flooring on the market, mostly revolving around resinous coats such as epoxy, urethane, or polyaspartic materials. The quality of these products can vary greatly depending on both the component materials used in the mix, as well as the skill of the installers. For example, how many layers/coats they use.
