When you need a new garage floor, you want something durable that will hold up to the wear and tear vehicles cause it. You need something attractive and affordable, and something that does not take too long to install.
A polyurea floor coating can meet all these requirements. While many homeowners believe epoxy flooring is their only option, a polyurea garage floor will give you a sound floor for much less cost.
Keep reading to examine all aspects of a polyurea garage floor coating cost.
Polyurea Garage Floor Coating Cost
As with all flooring, the total cost of a polyurea floor coating depends largely on the size of your floor. Generally speaking, a polyurea floor coating costs between $5 and $7 a square foot.
Most companies offer free estimates before they start laying your floor. So contact several companies to find the best deal.
More Than Money
The cost of new flooring will consist of more than just the financial cost. If time is money, then you also must consider how long a polyurea garage floor takes to install and how long you will not be able to use your garage.
Time
Compared to other flooring covers, a polyurea floor will cost you less time. It dries immediately upon application, yet it does not dry out in the container.
Installation experts can apply it evenly without clumps, allowing it to absorb in every pore of your concrete.
A polyurea floor takes between 4 and 8 hours before it sets. After 24 hours, you can drive your car on your newly installed polyurea floor.
Thus, if you do business where you’re laying the flooring, you will lose less downtime and less business loss.
You don’t even have to endure a strong smell since polyurea has little to no odor, making it an ideal coating for indoor surfaces. Polyurea is naturally low in volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, the elements that create a strong smell in epoxy.
Durability
A polyurea floor coating has proven to be stronger than epoxy. It resists the damage typically caused by ultraviolet light, not fading or yellowing as the epoxy floor does.
The second layer of polyurea will resist moisture and protect your concrete. Because the flooring cures so fast, fewer bubbles form as it hardens.
A polyurea flooring can last up to 10 years which means you do not have to go through the stress of replacing your garage floor very often. You can plan on a long-lasting floor.
Easy Installation
If you live in a place where extreme weather expands and contracts your concrete, polyurea coating is a good option. Installation experts can install it quickly and at almost any temperature.
Epoxy flooring takes much longer to cure than the 24 hours of a polyurea floor coating. Furthermore, the epoxy coating has a much more sensitive time window since it does not withstand extreme heat or cold upon installation.
Consider the Alternative
A polyurea garage floor coating cost is much less than that of epoxy floor or other traditional garage coatings. It costs less money and time to install. It also lasts up to ten years whereas epoxy flooring lasts two to three years.
