Metallic Epoxy Floors in Wilsonville, OR

Villebois garages are small, alley-loaded, and parked in tight, so the door thresholds and the edges near the walls take a beating that the middle of the floor never sees. For metallic that matters, because a clear coating over an edge that was chipped and worn for years shows the repair unless the edge is ground even and rebuilt. We spend more time on the perimeter of a Villebois garage than on the field.

Across the river in Charbonneau, the 1970s golf-course homes have 50-year-old slabs, usually painted at least once, and the paint has soaked in. Every trace of it has to be ground out or it reads as a stain under the pigment. Frog Pond and Canyon Creek are the opposite: new, flat, and still wet inside. Three prep plans, one drive of about 45 minutes.

Warm Dry Summers That Speed the Cure, Foggy Winters That Stall It

Wilsonville's flat river valley gets warm, dry summers that keep a metallic cure right on its one-week schedule, which is the best case for this coating. The foggy winters can stretch it past a week with the garage closed and heat running, and slow cure lets pigment keep drifting if the space is left cold. We plan installs here around the season more than in most towns.

The finish is clear epoxy at 100% solids with metallic pigment worked in by hand, a one-off pattern, protected by polyaspartic that stands up to oil and gas, 40 to 60 mils when finished. It is priced above flake because the prep on a chipped Villebois edge or a painted Charbonneau slab has to be perfect under a clear coat, and because the pour and cure take longer. The moisture probe goes in on every slab, since the river keeps the valley damp.

Alley Garages, 1970s Slabs, and Fresh Frog Pond Concrete

In Villebois the slabs are recent and flat but the edges and thresholds are worn from tight parking, so we grind the perimeter even and rebuild chips before the pour. Charbonneau's 1970s slabs across the river have old paint, hairline cracks, and no vapor barrier, which means paint removal, crack leveling, and a mitigating primer are all standard. Frog Pond and Canyon Creek homes from the 2000s to 2020s have machine-troweled slabs that carry curing compound on the surface and moisture inside for the first couple of years. Old Town Wilsonville near Boones Ferry is a mix. About 45 minutes down I-5, so the three install days get booked as a block.

Metallic Pricing From Villebois to Charbonneau

Villebois alley garages are small, 350 to 400 square feet, so the metallic range of $9 to $16 gives $3,150 to $6,400, with the edge work putting it mid-range. Charbonneau two-car garages around 450 square feet price from $4,050 through $7,200 and sit high for the paint and primer. A Frog Pond three-car near 650 square feet lands between $5,850 and $10,400 and sits low if the slab reads dry. Measured before we quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

The threshold of my Villebois garage is chipped from years of tight parking. Will that show?

Not after we rebuild it. Chipped edges get ground even, filled with a rigid repair, and blended so the clear coat runs to a clean line at the door. It is fiddly work on a small garage and it is where the time goes on a Villebois job. The field of the floor is usually flat and fast.

Charbonneau slabs are 50 years old and painted. Is metallic realistic?

Yes, with the prep priced in. The paint has to be ground completely out because a shadow of it shows under a clear coat, hairline cracks are leveled flush, and a mitigating primer goes down because there is no vapor barrier. It ends up a showpiece floor on a slab that started out gray and cracked.

Our Frog Pond house is new. Can you do the floor before we move in?

Only if the slab passes the moisture probe, and new concrete often does not in the first year or two. We test it; if it is over the limit, the options are a primer under the metallic or a date in late summer. Either way the grinder takes off the builder's curing compound.

Does a warm Wilsonville summer change how you pour the metallic?

It shortens the working time. We begin early with the door down so the pigment stays open long enough to finish shaping it. Foot traffic still waits a day or two, and the car about a week. Winter installs are the reverse: more working time, longer cure, heat on.

Is 45 minutes too far for you to come back if something needs a touch-up?

No. The floor carries a 15-year warranty and we stand behind it wherever it is. We do our own walkthrough before we call it finished, and if anything shows up later you call us and we come down. We would rather drive than leave a floor we are not proud of.
