4800sqft Shop & Garage Epoxy Polyaspartic Coating - Caldwell Idaho
Caldwell, Idaho – Hybrid Epoxy + Polyaspartic System
This custom home in Caldwell, Idaho featured an impressive 4,800 square foot oversized garage and shop designed for RV storage, vehicles, equipment, and workspace. While the home itself was beautifully finished, the bare concrete floors didn’t reflect the same level of craftsmanship.
The homeowner wanted a durable, professional-grade floor coating that would protect the slab long-term while elevating the overall appearance of the space.
The Total Garage installed our proven hybrid epoxy + polyaspartic coating system — engineered for durability, longevity, and Idaho’s climate.
Surface Preparation – The Foundation of Every Successful Floor
Every high-performance coating system begins with proper preparation.
For this project, we mechanically diamond ground the entire 4,800 sq ft surface to:
• Remove surface laitance and weak concrete
• Open the concrete pores for proper adhesion
• Eliminate contaminants
• Create a clean mechanical bond profile
Cracks and minor imperfections were repaired prior to coating application. Proper grinding is what ensures a coating system lasts — not just looks good initially.
High-Build Epoxy Base Coat
After preparation, we installed a premium, high-solids epoxy base coat designed to:
• Penetrate deeply into the slab
• Strengthen the concrete surface
• Build structural thickness
• Provide long-term durability under vehicle traffic
Epoxy serves as the structural backbone of our system.
Full Decorative Flake Broadcast
A full flake broadcast was applied to provide:
• Added slip resistance
• Improved wear resistance
• Visual texture and depth
• A clean, uniform finish
• A professional, finished appearance
For large custom garages and shops, a full flake system provides both performance and aesthetics.
Polyaspartic Clear Topcoat
The system was completed with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat that delivers:
• Chemical resistance (oil, fuel, solvents)
• Hot tire resistance
• Abrasion protection
• Non-yellowing performance
• Fast cure time
This top layer seals and protects the system while maintaining a clean, bright finish.
Built for Idaho Conditions
Concrete floors in Caldwell and the greater Treasure Valley are exposed to:
• Freeze-thaw cycles
• Snow melt and road salts
• Mud and moisture
• Heavy vehicles and equipment
Our hybrid epoxy + polyaspartic system is designed specifically to withstand these conditions without peeling, bubbling, or premature wear.
The Finished Result
The transformation elevated the entire space:
• Brighter, more reflective interior
• Easy-to-clean surface
• Reduced concrete dust
• Increased durability
• Professional, finished look
The garage and shop now match the quality and craftsmanship of the custom home itself.
