Explore our most popular flake, metallic, solid-color and marble finishes. We bring physical samples to every free in-home estimate so you can see them on your slab.
Every layer engineered for Northeast Florida heat, Jacksonville humidity, and the demands of a real garage floor.
01
Prepared Concrete Slabdiamond-ground to CSP-2/3
Your existing slab, mechanically ground to a Concrete Surface Profile of 2 to 3. Cracks patched. Moisture verified — vapor drive through Jacksonville's flatwoods slabs is the top coating-failure driver, worst on poorly-drained soils like Mandarin. Every layer above depends on this.
A pigmented, 100%-solids epoxy poured and back-rolled wet-on-wet across the freshly ground slab. This basecoat builds the real film thickness and color depth that separate a bonded floor from a rolled-on paint job.
03
Vinyl Flake Broadcasthand-cast to full rejection
Vinyl flake hand-cast into the wet basecoat until the surface takes no more. Cured overnight, then scraped flat and vacuumed. Color, camouflage, and slip-grip underfoot in a single step.
04
Polyaspartic TopcoatUV-stable, chemical-resistant
The surface you actually walk on. This aliphatic polyaspartic topcoat seals the flake and stays UV-stable under Jacksonville's subtropical sun, shrugging off brake fluid, hot tires, and coastal salt air. The 25-year warranty starts here.

Jacksonville Epoxy FAQs
Answers From Our Epoxy Flooring Professionals
The questions Jacksonville homeowners actually search before coating a garage floor — answered honestly, including the downsides.
In Jacksonville, most 2-car garages come in somewhere between $1,800 and $2,700 installed. Our flake system is $2,300 for a 2-car and $2,700 for a 3-car, all-in with nothing tacked on later. Across the industry, professional coatings typically run $5–$15 per square foot, driven by the system you choose and how much slab repair the concrete needs. At your free in-home estimate you leave with one firm figure — not a spread.
At roughly 400 square feet, a 20×20 garage falls squarely into standard 2-car territory. On our flake system that puts you in the $2,300 range, provided the slab is in normal shape. Deep cracking, pitting, or an old failing coating that has to be ground off will push the number up — and you’ll hear that before we start, never after.
Nationwide, a professional 2-car install averages $1,500–$4,000, while a DIY kit runs $300–$900. Here in Jacksonville the typical range tightens to about $1,870–$2,700. A quote far under that usually points to thin material, an acid etch instead of diamond grinding, or a single-coat product that won’t go the distance.
Nearly always, it comes down to prep. A $900 quote buys a roller, a bucket, and an afternoon — no grinding, no moisture testing, no crack repair. A real quote covers mechanically diamond-grinding the slab to a CSP 2–3 profile, patching cracks, and checking moisture, which on Northeast Florida slabs is the failure driver we watch most closely. That prep is the single biggest reason one floor lasts 20 years while another peels in two.
All of it: diamond-grind prep, crack and pit repair, moisture testing, a 100%-solids pigmented epoxy basecoat, a full vinyl flake broadcast, a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat, and a written, transferable 25-year warranty. No trip charges, no surprise line items added after the work is done.
Compared with tile, generally yes — tile runs more to install, and in a humid Jacksonville garage the grout lines crack, stain, and hold mildew. Versus polished concrete the cost is roughly even, but a coated floor adds color, flake, and a sealed, non-porous surface that shrugs off oil and chemicals — something bare polished concrete simply can’t do.
Yes — when it’s prepped and installed correctly. A bare Jacksonville slab sheds concrete dust and soaks up every oil drip; a coating turns it into a sealed, non-porous surface you sweep or hose clean, one that shrugs off brake fluid and hot tires and makes the garage read as finished space. The payoff lives or dies on preparation — a coating sprayed over an unground slab is money thrown away.
Straight talk: a cheap epoxy floor can peel, un-topcoated epoxy can amber or yellow under direct sun, and any glass-smooth coating turns slick when wet. We engineer around all three — diamond grinding for a mechanical bond, a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat that holds its color against the subtropical sun, and a full vinyl-flake broadcast that leaves real grip underfoot. The downsides are genuine; they’re also entirely solvable.
When the slab isn’t ready. Active moisture vapor pushing up from below — common on Jacksonville’s poorly-drained flatwoods soils in areas like Mandarin — or major unaddressed structural cracking will defeat any coating; sealing over it simply traps the problem underneath. That’s why we moisture-test every slab before we quote. If yours isn’t a candidate, we’ll say so instead of selling you a floor destined to fail.
A smooth, high-gloss coating can be, yes. Our flake and quartz systems broadcast decorative chips into the wet basecoat, leaving a subtle profile that grips underfoot — which matters the moment you roll a dripping car in during one of Jacksonville’s summer thunderstorms. For wash-down zones or entries we can broadcast extra anti-slip aggregate into the topcoat.
It won’t move the appraisal like a kitchen remodel, but few upgrades are this visible for the money. A finished garage floor photographs beautifully in a listing, tells buyers the home has been cared for, and registers the moment someone walks in. And since our 25-year warranty transfers to the next owner, it’s a genuine selling point.
A professionally installed system runs 10–20 years, and often a good deal longer when the slab is prepped correctly. Big-box DIY kits tend to start peeling or yellowing inside 2–5 years — they’re thin, water-based, and laid over a slab that was never ground. Every floor we install across Jacksonville carries a written 25-year warranty.
Five years in, a flake floor that was installed right looks almost identical to day one — at most a touch less gloss along the main tire path. Skip the prep and the picture changes fast: patches lifting where the car sits, chips along the door line, and ambering wherever Jacksonville’s subtropical sun reaches it.
Not when the prep is done properly. The industry data on epoxy failures is blunt — up to 80% trace straight back to poor surface preparation. Peeling and hot-tire pickup come from a weak bond; bubbles come from moisture driving up through the slab, the leading cause of coating failure on Jacksonville’s poorly drained flatwoods soils. We diamond-grind to a CSP 2–3 profile and moisture-test every slab so neither can take hold.
Bare epoxy does amber over time under UV — that’s chemistry, not a workmanship flaw. It’s the exact reason we never leave epoxy as the wear layer. The aliphatic polyaspartic topcoat sitting on top is UV-stable, so the coating keeps its color through Jacksonville’s subtropical sun with the garage door open all summer.
Yes. Hot-tire pickup happens when hot rubber grabs a soft or weakly bonded coating and peels it up as the car cools. Our polyaspartic topcoat stays hard through a Duval County summer and is locked to a diamond-ground slab, so tires simply roll off it clean.
The honest answer is both, layered together — that’s our whole system. Epoxy brings film thickness, deep color, and a hard mechanical grip into the slab. Polyaspartic cures quickly and stays UV-stable and chemical-resistant, which earns its keep under Jacksonville’s subtropical sun. We roll a 100%-solids epoxy base, broadcast flake into it, then lock everything under a polyaspartic topcoat — the strengths of each, the weak spots of neither.
For the wear layer, yes — polyaspartic beats epoxy on UV stability, cure speed, and hot-tire resistance. For the base layer, a 100%-solids epoxy still delivers the best film build and bond for the money. Any installer pushing a one-product floor is streamlining their own labor, not protecting your slab.
Durability comes from a multi-layer build, not one product: a mechanically ground slab, a 100%-solids epoxy base, a full flake or quartz broadcast, and a polyaspartic wear layer on top. On the Jacksonville floors we coat, total film thickness and bond quality decide longevity — far more than the brand name stamped on the bucket.
You can, and on a light-use slab a kit might hold for a few years. The real tradeoff: big-box kits are thin, usually water-based, and lean on an acid etch instead of mechanical grinding — which is why so many start peeling within 2–5 years. Once you tally the grinder rental, materials, and a lost weekend, DIY often lands closer to a professional Jacksonville quote than folks expect.
Only once the old coating is handled properly. If that layer is already delaminating, laying fresh epoxy over it just inherits the same failure. We grind the previous system off down to sound concrete and rebuild from a clean profile. That does add labor, and we’ll quote it honestly at your estimate.
Nearly every residential garage in Jacksonville wraps up in a single day. The crew diamond-grinds the slab first thing, rolls the basecoat and broadcasts the flake, and seals it with polyaspartic before evening. A big commercial or industrial floor can stretch to two days — either way, you’ll have the timeline in hand before we begin.
Foot traffic is fine in roughly 4 hours; you can pull the car back in after 24. Credit the polyaspartic topcoat for that quick turnaround — a straight-epoxy floor would have you parking in the driveway for the better part of a week.
Think in layers, not coats. On Jacksonville’s moisture-prone flatwoods slabs we start with a vapor-barrier primer, then roll a pigmented 100%-solids epoxy basecoat edge to edge, broadcast vinyl flake to rejection, and seal with a clear polyaspartic topcoat — the flake scraped and vacuumed flat before that final coat.
Upkeep is genuinely minimal. Sweep or dust-mop the grit, and hose it down or mop with a mild cleaner whenever it needs it — no wax, no resealing, no specialty products. Because the surface is non-porous, oil and brake fluid bead on top and wipe away instead of soaking in.
Absolutely. Localized damage — a dropped jack stand, a gouge from a toolbox — gets spot-repaired and feathered back in without redoing the rest of the floor. It’s a quiet perk of a flake finish: the mottled pattern swallows the patch so you’d be hard-pressed to spot it.
Just about any time. Polyaspartic cures across a wide temperature range, and because installs happen inside your garage, summer humidity doesn’t stop us. The real caveat is a Jacksonville winter freeze night — a cold slab cures slower, so we schedule around hard cold snaps and moisture-test in every season, since slab moisture outweighs the calendar.
Yes, on the install — not the cured floor. Jacksonville’s summer humidity narrows the window we can safely coat in, and moisture vapor rising through the slab is the bigger concern, the top cause of coating failure on poorly-drained flatwoods soils like Mandarin’s. We moisture-test every slab and prime with a vapor barrier wherever the readings call for it.
Salt air goes after porous surfaces — it seeps into bare or lightly sealed concrete and pits it over time. A seamless, non-porous, fully bonded coating gives chlorides nothing to grip, which is why an oceanfront garage in Atlantic Beach or Neptune Beach gets built exactly the same way as one inland in San Marco.
Not beneath a system installed right. Mold needs moisture and a food source, and a fully bonded, non-porous coating over a moisture-tested slab leaves no gap for water to collect. Trouble only starts when someone coats a damp slab with no vapor barrier — which in a climate as humid as Northeast Florida’s is exactly the failure our moisture testing exists to prevent.
Yes — all of Duval, since Jacksonville and Duval County have been one consolidated government since 1968. That means Jacksonville proper and the Beaches (Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach), plus Mandarin, Riverside, Avondale, San Marco, Southside, Arlington, Baymeadows, Orange Park, Ponte Vedra, and Nocatee.

AAlex Johnsona year ago
We hadn’t updated our floor in years, and it was really starting to show. I came across epoxy flooring during my research and loved the bold colors and durability. Apex stood out for their excellent reviews and warranty, so I gave them a call. They offered great options, were easy to work with, and finished the job quickly. I’m thrilled with the outcome and highly recommend them!
DDonovan Stonea year ago
They are the best flooring contractor I’ve worked with! I had previously dealt with four other contractors, but their estimates were way too high, so I had to put my project on hold. Then, I saw Apex’s work at my neighbor’s place and decided to give them a try. Their estimate was lower than the others, and after hearing great things from my neighbor, I went ahead with them. It was all true! They made my floor stunning, and I truly believe they are the best!
