If you are dreaming of a beautiful epoxy floor for your Orlando garage floor but believe its only value is aesthetics, think again. Epoxy floors are more than just a pretty face. Read below to learn the importance of a Garage Design Works epoxy floor.

• Many car owners enjoy working on their vehicles. This often involves liquids, such as oil, gas, or transmission fluid, that seep from leaky compartments. Spills that permeate concrete floors are usually difficult to clean, especially if they have had a chance to settle. Spills on epoxy-covered floors are easily wiped away with a clean cloth or a soft mop.
• For spills that adhere to an epoxy floor over time, use a solution of ammonia and water and gently scrub. This will keep the floor from becoming sticky and unsafe.
• If your existing floor had any inconsistencies, such as cracks or divots, an epoxy floor covering will cover small discrepancies, and after larger areas are repaired, the epoxy surface makes the floor level and uniform in texture.
• Florida is the Sunshine State. Most painted surfaces cannot withstand extended periods of time in the ultraviolet lights that prevail, especially during hot summer months. We have coatings that are UV-resistant.
• Because of its durability, homeowners will not have to repaint or repair epoxy-finished floors. Daily use, such as driving your car onto the surface or rolling a toolbox from one side of the garage to the other, will not harm the floor. When using a jack to work beneath the car, though, be sure to place a sheet of plywood under the jack to prevent marking the surface of the floor.
