When upgrading their garage floor, homeowners most commonly choose between polyaspartic and epoxy garage floor coatings. At Floortek, with our extensive experience and expertise, we’ve helped hundreds of families in Birmingham, Alabama, and Stuart, Florida, make the right choice. We want to help you, too. This guide will explain why polyaspartic is the best choice for your home and why epoxy doesn’t hold up in the long run.

What Homeowners Should Know About Garage Floor Coatings

Your garage floor takes a beating. Concrete alone doesn't stand a chance long-term, from car traffic and oil spills to temperature swings and heavy equipment. And while many companies still promote epoxy, it's outdated. Polyaspartic vs. epoxy garage floor coating is not a fair comparison—polyaspartic wins every time in hot, humid places like Birmingham and Stuart.

Your garage is more than a storage space—it's part of your home. Whether you use it as a workshop, parking spot, or extension of your living space, it should look clean, polished, and durable enough to last for years.

Polyaspartic vs Epoxy Garage Floor Coating: Key Differences

When comparing polyaspartic vs epoxy garage floor coating, start with durability. Polyaspartic coatings are:

10X Better than Epoxy
With polyaspartic, you won't have to wait long for your new garage floor to be ready for use. It cures faster, allowing you to walk on it in a few hours and drive the next day, respecting your time and schedule.
UV stable (no yellowing in sunlight)
Resistant to spills, stains, and everyday wear

Epoxy, our competitor, requires multiple days to cure, yellows in the sun, and often peels over time, especially in high-humidity areas like Alabama and Florida.

At Floortek, we're committed to providing you with a lasting coating. Our polyaspartic system, backed by Lab-Formulated for Durability products, ensures your floor resists fading, cracking, and bubbling. This means you'll enjoy a beautiful finish that looks brand new for years, a testament to our expertise and dedication to quality.
