Common Lakewood floor questions
A standard flake epoxy runs about $4 to $8 per square foot installed. Polyaspartic and metallic systems run higher per square foot. You get the exact number in writing before we start.
Most residential floors land around $4 to $8 per square foot installed for epoxy; polyaspartic runs higher, roughly $8 to $12, and metallic $8 to $15. The number depends on the system and how much repair the slab needs, and we quote the whole job, not a teaser rate.
Epoxy builds a thick base, polyaspartic adds a fast UV-stable topcoat, and metallic is a decorative finish for basements and showrooms. Most garages get an epoxy base with a polyaspartic topcoat.
For interior floor finishing in Lakewood and unincorporated Jefferson County, a building permit is generally not required since it is cosmetic finish work. We flag it if anything about your job is an exception.
Most residential floors are a one-day install once prep is done, walk-on the next day and drive-on within a few. Commercial floors take longer; you get the timeline with your quote.
No real prep and no moisture test. A roller kit over a smooth or damp slab has nothing to grip, and Front Range freeze-thaw lifts it within a season.
Yes, insured for residential, automotive, and commercial work across Jefferson County. We are happy to confirm the details before any job.
We grind dust-controlled and haul our waste. Leftover solvent coatings and acid stains go to the Rooney Road Recycling Center in Golden, and slurry stays out of the storm drains.
