Parking
Epoxy floors for parking areas, condo garages and ramps
The parking level is a building’s first impression and its hardest-working floor. A flake system seals the concrete, gives tires grip, and reopens to vehicles in 48 hours.
The starting point
The problem with the floor you have
Parking combines everything concrete dislikes: weight, turning tires, oil and water.
- Concrete dust
- Turning tires wear the surface. Dust coats the cars and travels up elevators and stairwells.
- Permanent oil stains
- Concrete absorbs every drip. No washing removes them, and every stall ends up marked.
- Ramps that get slick in the rain
- Smooth-troweled concrete loses grip when wet, right where a car needs traction.
- The basement look
- A gray, dark, stained floor takes value away from a condominium or office building right at the entrance.
The result
What changes with a seamless surface
The system seals the concrete pores and leaves a texture made for tires and wet shoes.
- Natural slip resistance: flake is broadcast to full coverage and then sealed.
- Oil stays on the surface and wipes off; it does not soak in.
- The concrete stops dusting.
- Foot traffic at 24 hours, vehicles at 48.
- The flake pattern hides tire marks and dirt between cleanings.
- Stall lines, arrows and numbering are coordinated as part of the project.
Recommended system
Flake, for grip and endurance
For vehicle traffic we recommend flake. Solid color is an alternative for covered, dry parking where a smooth, uniform finish is preferred.
Flake
$70–$90 USD per m² installed
Torginol Signature Series flake in 15 blends, over a 100% solids epoxy base with a final seal coat. Slip resistant, forgiving, and easy to hose or machine wash.

Quoted per space
For covered, dry basements. Seven smooth colors; lighter tones improve lighting in the garage.

The final price depends on the area, the condition of the substrate and the finish. We confirm it at the on-site assessment, which is free of charge.

How it’s done
Five steps, no surprises
In condos and buildings the parking area cannot close all at once. The work is split into sectors so vehicles can be relocated in turns, and the calendar is agreed with management at the assessment, which is free of charge.
01
Assess
Site visit, measurements and concrete tests: moisture, pH and surface profile.
02
Design
System, finish and a physical sample for you to approve.
03
Prepare
Mechanical grinding or polishing, and crack repair.
04
Install
The layers of the chosen system, 3 to 5 business days depending on area and weather.
05
Hand over
With written care recommendations.
Questions
What clients usually ask
When can cars come back in?
Vehicle traffic opens 48 hours after the final coat; foot traffic at 24. Typical installation takes 3 to 5 business days per sector, depending on area and weather.
Does it work on ramps?
Yes. On ramps we use the flake system for its slip-resistant texture. Slope, drainage and rain exposure are reviewed at the assessment to define the seal coat.
Is line striping included?
Stall lines, arrows and numbering are coordinated with you as part of the project. The scope is defined at the assessment and itemized in the quote.
How is the work organized in a condo with residents?
By sector. We agree with management which stalls are cleared in each stage and for how many days, so residents get advance notice. The products are zero VOC and virtually odorless, which matters in enclosed basements.
