In Michigan, garage floors endure freeze–thaw cycles, road salt, high moisture, and long winters. Those conditions make a strong warranty essential—but many garage floor coating warranties fall apart the moment moisture or damage appears. Garage Floor Coating of Michigan wants homeowners to know how to protect themselves before they sign anything. These five questions reveal whether an installer truly stands behind their work.
- “Does your warranty cover all moisture-related issues?”
Most installers quietly say no. They promote long warranties but exclude moisture using confusing thresholds (3 lbs or 6 lbs MVER, or Tramex readings homeowners never verify). When a coating fails—often because vapor pressure pushes upward through cold, damp concrete—the installer points to the numbers and voids the warranty.
We include a moisture-mitigating epoxy vapor barrier primer on every project, with no moisture exclusions.
- “Is moisture mitigation included automatically, or only if you ‘discover’ a problem?”
A common tactic is the install-day upcharge: the contractor grinds the concrete, claims they’ve found moisture, and pressures the homeowner into buying a costly add-on.
In Michigan, moisture isn’t a surprise—it’s a certainty.
Our garage floor systems include moisture mitigation up front, with no unexpected fees.
- “Does your warranty exclude tire staining?”
Plasticizer migration—permanent tire staining—is a widespread issue in cold climates where cars track in heat, salt, and chemical residue. Most 1-day systems and thin epoxies are vulnerable, so installers simply exclude staining from their warranties.
Our industrial-grade systems use 100% solids materials, a full-broadcast flake layer, and two polyaspartic clear coats that resist tire staining and winter contaminants.
- “Is the warranty full coverage, including labor?”
Some companies offer “lifetime” warranties that sound strong but only cover materials. That leaves Michigan homeowners paying most of the cost to repair a failed coating.
Garage Floor Coating of Michigan provides full materials-and-labor coverage, so protection actually means protection.
- “Can you provide Technical Data Sheets for every product used?”
Installers who hesitate usually rely on thin-mil products not suited for high-moisture Midwest concrete. A trustworthy company should have complete specs ready to share.
We provide full transparency for every system we install.
