When homeowners search for epoxy driveways, they usually want a clean driveway that lasts long and doesn't require constant repair. At Floortek, with our extensive knowledge and expertise in driveway solutions, we understand that goal, but we also know there's a better option than traditional epoxy. In Birmingham, Alabama, Stuart, Florida, and nearby areas, our polyaspartic driveway coatings deliver long-lasting performance and professional results in just one day.

We offer something 10X better than epoxy—a polyaspartic coating that cures in one day, doesn’t fade or yellow, and is backed by our comprehensive Life-of-the-Home Warranty, ensuring your driveway stays in top condition for years. 

Are you ready to learn why many of your neighbors in Birmingham, Alabama, and Stuart, Florida, trust Floortek? Let’s dive in.

What Are Epoxy Driveways and Why Are They So Common?

Epoxy driveways are concrete surfaces coated with a type of resin. Many homeowners choose them because they seem affordable and familiar. However, while epoxy might look suitable for a few months, it often breaks down fast in hot sun or when exposed to moisture, two things we get plenty of in Alabama and Florida.

Epoxy can:

• Yellow in the sun

• Take several days to cure fully.

• Peel under the tire, heat, or heavy use

That’s why more homeowners are turning away from epoxy driveway coatings and looking for something better.

Why Polyaspartic Coatings Outperform Epoxy Driveways

At Floortek, we specialize in polyaspartic driveway coatings because they’re more durable, flexible, and longer-lasting than anything epoxy can offer. Here’s why:

• 1-day installation – You can walk and drive on it fast

• No yellowing – UV stable, perfect for sunny climates

• Better adhesion – Bonds strongly to concrete

• Resists wea—It handles heavy use without peeling, giving you peace of mind about the longevity of your driveway.
