How to Make Your Floor Practical and Stylish With Epoxy

Whether you are renovating your home or just trying to freshen up your office space or garage, a new epoxy floor can do the job. This beautiful finish can add artistic appeal, durability, and cleanliness to your space. If you are looking for an affordable way to update your space you may want to consider this type of floor finish.

One of the biggest advantages to epoxy flooring is that it comes in many colors, designs, and even textures. Because it is an epoxy, almost any color can be added to the mixture before it is applied to the floor. The color can be mixed in completely for a solid look or only partially to create a swirled effect. Other materials, such as mica flecks or quartz pieces can also be added to the epoxy to give texture, traction and custom designs. Images or logos may also be placed underneath the epoxy for a designer look.

An epoxy floor may be much more durable than other flooring options. The epoxy has a flexibility unlike concrete or tile and chemical resistance unlike carpet or vinyl. Epoxy will hold up against foot or vehicle traffic, spilled coffee or oil, dropped tools and more.

Whether you choose a smooth finish or an orange peel texture for traction, epoxy is much easier to clean than most surfaces. Wet spills remain on the surface of the epoxy and can be wiped up without leaving any residue or moisture behind. Dry spills are easily swept up leaving a shiny, clean surface that appears dust free. This is ideal for kitchens, cafeterias, garage floors, restaurants, warehouses and more. Because of the stain and chemical resistance of the flooring plus the ease of cleaning, this type of floor is ideal almost anywhere.

Epoxy flooring is a low maintenance, versatile way to decorate and improve your home, office or garage. Whether you are building new or renovating an existing space an epoxy floor may be worth considering.
