Unincorporated Clackamas covers a lot of ground. So does what we coat here: 2-car garages, sloped garages, and 1,200-foot shops.
Free In-Home EstimateDraw a circle around Clackamas Town Center and you get three kinds of floor inside it. The Sunnyside and Sunnybrook subdivisions from the 1970s to 2000s have 30-year-old 2-car slabs with tire wear and joint cracks. Up Mount Scott the garages are built into the hill and slope with it. Out toward Carver and Damascus the properties are acreage, and the shop is a big broom-finished slab built for a truck and a tractor. Same crew, three different setups.
We are about 30 minutes south on I-205, which makes Clackamas an easy two-day install and a normal estimate trip. The moisture meter comes with us because the area is not uniform: the hills toward Damascus catch more rain, the Clackamas River bottom stays damp, and the flats near the Town Center are ordinary valley weather. Where a slab sits decides what the first coat is.
The material does not care what parks on it. An epoxy base at 100% solids, locked into ground concrete, flake thrown until the surface is full, and a polyaspartic topcoat at 30 to 40 mils total handles a minivan in Sunnyside and a skid steer in Carver equally. It does not lift under hot tires, it stands up to road salt brought in off Highway 212, and diesel and hydraulic fluid wipe off it. Five-year workmanship warranty on both the garage and the shop.
What changes is the prep. Subdivision slabs get a grind that removes tire marks, old sealer, and any previous coating, plus polyurea in the joint cracks. Mount Scott slabs get the epoxy applied at a controlled thickness so it holds on the slope, with cold joints filled and drains kept open. Shops get a heavier grind to even out the broom finish and any waves from a hand pour, and a moisture test because a thick slab on damp ground dries slowly.

Sunnyside, Sunnybrook, and the streets around Clackamas Town Center are the subdivision garages: 1970s to 2000s builder concrete, sound but scuffed, some with a peeling kit. Mount Scott garages pitch toward the driveway or a drain, and the pours meet at cold joints that need flexible filler. The acreage toward Carver, Damascus, and out Boring Road has shops of 1,000 square feet and up, broom-finished, thick, and often on ground near the Clackamas River or Mount Talbert Nature Park that holds water into spring. Those get a moisture test. Thirty minutes on I-205 puts all of it in easy range for a two-day install.

Every slab is different, so we price each floor after a free in-person inspection. Slab condition, old coatings, cracks, moisture and size are what move the price, and exact pricing comes after that inspection, with a written quote.
Inside the coating
Every floor starts with a properly prepared slab and is built up one layer at a time, each with a specific job.
For concrete floors
Yes, and it is more efficient. We grind and base-coat both on day one and topcoat both on day two, one setup for two floors. The shop takes longer to grind because of the broom finish and the size, but the crew is already there. Ask for a combined quote at the estimate.
None we have not handled before. High-solids epoxy has enough body to hold on a garage pitch when it is squeegeed out and back-rolled. Cold joints get flexible polyurea, and the drain stays open with the slope intact. The finish reads as one continuous floor.
Three reasons. We diamond grind or shot blast instead of acid etching, so the epoxy locks into the concrete. We use 100% solids epoxy at ten times the thickness of a kit. And we top it with polyaspartic, which does not soften under hot tires the way a water-based clear does. Those three are the whole difference.
It does. A thick shop slab on river-bottom ground can hold moisture well into spring, and vapor pushing up through it will lift an unprepared coating. We test with calcium chloride and, if the number is high, use a moisture-mitigating primer first. After that the shop floor is as durable as any.
Yes. It is roughly a 30-minute run down I-205, one of the closer Oregon trips we make. Estimate in person with sample boards and a moisture meter, then two install days. No trip charge for Carver or Damascus.
