From Bare Concrete to a Durable, Designer Finish
Overview
StoneCare of Texas recently completed the final phase of a garage remodel in Boerne, Texas. The homeowner had updated the space for a modern look but wanted to take it a step further with a high-performance floor. After reviewing their options, they chose our Polyurea-Polyaspartic chip system—an excellent choice for durability, appearance, and ease of maintenance.
The Challenge
The garage floor was plain, unfinished concrete—stained, porous, and difficult to clean. While the rest of the garage had been modernized, the floor still looked like a construction zone. The homeowner wanted a surface that would be:
- Visually appealing to match the updated space
- Durable enough to stand up to heavy use and hot tires
- Easy to clean and maintain
- Slip-resistant and UV-stable for long-term performance
Our Solution
We installed our Polyurea-Polyaspartic chip system, designed to deliver both beauty and lasting protection.
1. Surface Preparation
We began by mechanically grinding the bare concrete to remove surface contaminants and create the ideal profile for coating adhesion. Any cracks or imperfections were patched to ensure a smooth finish.
2. Base Coat Application
A polyurea base coat was applied, offering exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and fast curing times.
3. Chip Broadcast
Decorative vinyl chips were broadcast across the surface while the base coat was still tacky, ensuring full coverage and adding texture for slip resistance.
4. Topcoat Sealing
After removing excess chips, a polyaspartic topcoat was applied to lock everything in. This final layer offers superior UV protection, high gloss, and impact resistance.
The Results
✅ Long-Lasting Durability – The new surface resists hot tire pickup, chipping, peeling, and staining.
✅ Modern, Finished Look – The decorative chip blend adds a sleek, professional touch to the updated garage.
✅ Easy Maintenance – The seamless, non-porous surface makes sweeping and mopping a breeze.
✅ Fast Return to Service – Thanks to quick cure times, the homeowner was able to use the garage again in short order.
Conclusion
With the installation of our Polyurea-Polyaspartic chip system, StoneCare of Texas helped this homeowner complete their garage makeover in style. The new floor delivers the perfect combination of beauty, strength, and easy maintenance—proof that even bare concrete can be transformed into something spectacular.
