Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing a garage floor coating in Greater Atlanta is not just about color. It is about concrete preparation, coating chemistry, moisture, price, warranty details, and who will answer your questions after the estimate.
What is the difference between epoxy and polyaspartic coatings?+
Epoxy is a broad category many homeowners recognize, but Garage Glow often recommends commercial-grade polyaspartic coating systems for garage floors. Polyaspartic systems can cure faster and offer strong durability when installed over properly prepared concrete. Exact product specifications should be confirmed in the estimate.
Are DIY garage floor kits worth it?+
DIY kits can make a floor look better for a short time, but the weak point is usually surface preparation. If the concrete is not ground, cleaned, and profiled correctly, the coating can peel or wear unevenly. Garage Glow focuses on prep because the finish depends on it.
How much does garage floor coating cost?+
Garage floor coating and metallic coating pricing is tailored to each project. Final pricing depends on square footage, concrete condition, cracks, spalling, moisture, stem walls, steps, finish selection, and access.
How long does installation take?+
Many garage coating projects can be completed quickly, but timing depends on surface condition, repairs, coating system, weather, and cure requirements. Garage Glow will explain when you can walk on the floor, move items back, and park vehicles.
Do cracks need to be fixed before coating?+
Cracks should be reviewed before coating starts. Some cracks can be repaired or filled as part of surface prep, while moving structural cracks may need a different conversation. Garage Glow will identify visible issues during the estimate instead of hiding them under a coating.
What about moisture in the concrete?+
Moisture matters because coatings need the right conditions to bond. If moisture is suspected, Garage Glow should discuss testing or system limitations before work begins.
What kind of warranty do you offer?+
Garage Glow offers a 15-year warranty. Workmanship warranty details are provided with every estimate, and manufacturer-backed product warranty details are explained when they apply to the selected system.
Are you insured?+
Yes. Garage Glow is fully insured. Homeowners can request documentation during the estimate process.
What makes Garage Glow different from other coating companies in Atlanta?+
Garage Glow is new, owner-led, and built around fast communication. Mauricio Blanco brings a real estate sales background and builder/realtor relationships, so follow-up, presentation, and clear expectations are treated as part of the service.
Do you handle commercial epoxy projects?+
Yes. Garage Glow offers commercial epoxy and coating services for spaces such as warehouses, auto shops, commercial kitchens, kennels, and airplane hangars. The estimate should review traffic, cleaning requirements, slip needs, and downtime before a system is recommended.
What areas do you serve?+
Garage Glow serves Atlanta and the Greater Atlanta area, including Marietta, Alpharetta, Roswell, Suwanee, Johns Creek, Decatur, Stone Mountain, Norcross, Peachtree Corners, Smyrna, and Sandy Springs. If your city is nearby, call and ask about availability.
Do I need photos before requesting a quote?+
Photos are helpful, but not required. If you have them, send wide shots of the full floor, close-ups of cracks or stains, the garage entry, steps, stem walls, and any areas where water collects.
