Client: Private Residence
Location: Reston, VA
Project Type: Residential Interior Garage and Exterior Porch Coating
Completion Date: February 26, 2024
A homeowner in Reston, Virginia, sought to enhance both the functionality and aesthetic appeal of their property by upgrading the flooring of their garage and porch. The aim was to achieve a uniform look that blends indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly.
The main challenge was to ensure a consistent finish across different environments—the interior of the garage and the exterior porch. Both areas needed a durable solution that could withstand various weather conditions while maintaining a high level of aesthetic appeal.
FloorTech Concrete Coatings recommended the “Domino” chip flake for its versatility and durability. This choice allowed for a harmonious look between the garage and porch, with a stylish finish that complemented the home’s overall design.
Surface Preparation: Both the garage and porch concrete were in good condition but required standard sanding to prepare them for the coating. This ensured a smooth application and optimal adherence of the coating materials.
Coating Application: The “Domino” chip flake was applied to both the garage and porch. Its blend of colors was ideal for masking everyday use and wear while providing a sleek, modern finish.
Quality Assurance: Our team conducted thorough inspections post-application to ensure that the coating was uniform and met all quality standards, providing a perfect finish in both indoor and outdoor settings.
The project successfully enhanced the visual appeal and functionality of both the garage and porch. The “Domino” chip flake not only beautified the spaces but also provided a durable surface that would hold up against the elements and everyday use.
The homeowner was delighted with the transformation, noting the enhanced beauty and utility of both areas. The quick and efficient one-day transformation was particularly appreciated, minimizing disruption to the household.
This case study exemplifies FloorTech Concrete Coatings’ capability to deliver high-quality, durable solutions for both interior and exterior spaces. The project in Reston, VA, demonstrates our commitment to providing seamless and efficient service, ensuring customer satisfaction with every project we undertake.

Project Type: Residential House Floor Coating
The homeowner desired a significant upgrade to the entire flooring of their house. The goal was to enhance the durability and visual appeal of their living space with a modern and robust flooring solution. The existing concrete was in decent condition but required a makeover to rejuvenate its appearance and functionality.
For this comprehensive project, the homeowner selected the “Mount Everest” chip flake. This choice was made for its striking appearance that mimics the natural look of granite, adding both elegance and resilience to the floors.
Key Steps Taken:
The project was successfully completed in just two days, which was faster than typical for such extensive coverage. The new floor coating has significantly improved both the aesthetic and the durability of the home’s interior. The homeowner was particularly impressed with the swift turnaround and the transformative look of their living spaces.
“Our home feels completely transformed! The new floors are not only beautiful but also so much easier to maintain. FloorTech did a remarkable job in just two days, and we couldn’t be happier with the results!”
This project is a testament to the effectiveness of choosing high-quality materials and employing expert craftsmanship. The “Mount Everest” chip flake is an excellent choice for homeowners looking for a durable, low-maintenance solution that doesn’t compromise on style.
Although epoxy offers initial cost savings, polyurea is better choice in terms of overall performance and long-term cost-effectiveness, owing to its durability and lower maintenance requirements. The decision between epoxy and polyurea ultimately hinges on your needs. Go with polyurea if want a long-lasting, durable coating with minimal upkeep. Alternatively, if you’re pursuing a shorter-term solution or operating on a tighter budget – epoxy might suit your needs. For those with the requisite skills and time, a DIY approach could also be considered.
Typically, the cost of materials and labor varies, averaging around $6.50 per square foot for larger areas like 900 square feet, and going up to $9.00 per square foot for smaller spaces of around 300 square feet.
Polyurea and epoxy are both used for coating concrete, but they’re quite different. Polyurea is stronger and lasts longer, about 15 years, compared to epoxy’s 3-5 years. It bonds deeply with concrete, making it less likely to chip or peel. Epoxy, while protective, just sits on the surface and can wear out faster, especially with heat and sunlight. When applying polyurea, the surface needs more preparation, but this makes it more durable. In simple terms, polyurea is like a stronger, longer-lasting protective layer for your concrete surfaces.

It is always a good idea to consult your HOA regarding rules about painting or installing coatings in outdoor areas visible from the outside. Typically, this would only apply to driveway and sidewalk coatings. We advise you to check with your HOA, review their documentation, and see whether there is any mention of concrete coatings. If there isn’t, you should be clear to have your coating installed.
Epoxy and some other polyurea coatings can only be installed during warmer months of the year. But, our polyurea coating can be installed year-round even in winter, and still only takes a day for installation.
