If you’re considering a new epoxy garage coating in Berthoud, you might be wondering what the process looks like. At NuWave Garages, we keep things simple, straightforward, and focused on high-quality results. Here’s how it all works:
1. Quote & Approval
We’ll start with a fast and easy quote. If you know the square footage of your garage, we can usually provide an estimate right away, or we can schedule a time to visit the project location in person. Once you’re ready to move forward, we’ll request a deposit to lock in your install dates and requirements, confirm the details, and schedule your project.
2. Prep: Garage Must Be Empty
Your garage will need to be cleared before we arrive. If that sounds like a hassle, don’t worry—we’ve got solutions. We offer optional enclosed trailer rentals for secure, on-site storage, making the prep process way more convenient.
3. Installation: Done in 2 Days
Most residential epoxy garage floor installs in Berthoud are finished in just two days. Here’s what happens:
Day 1: Prep & Basecoat Application
- Concrete is mechanically ground to remove impurities and open the pores for maximum adhesion.
- Cracks or surface damage are repaired.
- We apply a polyaspartic basecoat and broadcast decorative flake across the surface.
Day 2: Scraping & Topcoat
- The floor is scraped to smooth out excess flake and reduce sharpness, then vacuumed thoroughly.
A UV-stable, non-yellowing topcoat is applied to lock everything in and provide long-term protection.
4. Post-Install Guidelines
Once the install is complete, we recommend waiting:
- 24 hours before walking on the surface
- 48 hours before moving items back in
- 72 hours before full use, including vehicles
Ongoing care is easy: sweep regularly, mop with a pH-neutral cleaner like Simple Green, or power-wash as needed to keep it looking sharp.
