Illustrative example of a full-broadcast flake epoxy finish.
Full-broadcast color-flake floors for Treasure Valley garages and shops. Textured underfoot, easy to squeegee clean, and tough enough for hot tires and dropped tools.

A full-flake floor is the workhorse of epoxy finishes. Vinyl color flakes are broadcast wall-to-wall into a wet pigmented base coat, then locked under a clear topcoat. The speckled surface reads like granite, hides dust and tire scuffs between cleanings, and adds real traction compared to a smooth gloss floor.
It is the finish most Boise homeowners pick for a garage, and the one that keeps looking clean the longest in a hard-working shop. If you want the deep marbled look instead, see our metallic epoxy floors; for warehouses and bay floors, see commercial epoxy.
Flake blends run from subtle gray-on-gray to bold multi-color mixes, in flake sizes from 1/16 inch up to 1 inch. Custom combinations can be created to match your home or style, so the floor can be as quiet or as loud as you want it.
Both systems take a flake broadcast well. Epoxy absorbs into the concrete for the strongest bond and dries overnight; polyaspartic is a one-day process with a fast return to service. We explain the trade-offs plainly on the free estimate, and epoxy systems are backed by a lifetime warranty against peeling or lifting.

We mechanically grind the slab to open the concrete's pores, then repair cracks and spalling. Prep is what keeps a coating from peeling, so we never skip it.
A pigmented base coat goes down, and flakes are broadcast to full coverage while it is wet, wall to wall with no thin spots.
Once cured, the excess flake is scraped smooth and the floor is sealed under a clear protective topcoat that carries the gloss and the durability.
Square footage, slab condition, and the system under the flakes set the price. As a market reference, national cost guides such as HomeGuide and Angi put professionally installed epoxy flooring at roughly $3–$12 per square foot. Our cost guide breaks down typical Boise garage sizes, and the on-site estimate that pins down your exact number is free, with no obligation.
A flake (or broadcast) epoxy floor starts with a pigmented epoxy base coat. While that coat is still wet, vinyl color flakes are broadcast across the whole surface, then the floor is scraped smooth and sealed under a clear protective topcoat. The result is a speckled, granite-look finish that hides dust and scuffs, adds texture underfoot, and wipes clean.
More than 80 flake color blends, with flake sizes from 1/16 inch up to 1 inch. Custom color combinations can also be created to match your home or style, so you are not locked into a handful of stock looks.
Flake floors are naturally more textured than a smooth high-gloss coating, so they offer better traction, including when wet. That texture is one of the main reasons flake broadcast is the most popular system for garages and shops in the Treasure Valley.
It depends on square footage, slab condition, and the system you choose. As a market reference, national cost guides such as HomeGuide and Angi put professionally installed epoxy flooring at roughly $3 to $12 per square foot. The on-site estimate that pins down your number is free.
With proper diamond-grind preparation, a flake epoxy floor is a long-term surface, not a coat of paint. Epoxy systems carry a lifetime warranty against peeling or lifting, and polyaspartic systems carry a 10-year warranty against peeling or lifting.
Both take a flake broadcast well. Epoxy absorbs into the concrete and is the stronger, more chemical-resistant build; it dries overnight, so the job finishes the next morning. Polyaspartic is a one-day process with a fast return to service. We walk you through the trade-offs on the free estimate and install whichever fits how you use the space.
