If you’re planning a garage floor coating project in Erie—whether you’re in Colliers Hill, Vista Ridge, or tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac—there are a few easy steps that can help everything go off without a hitch.
Here’s how to prepare for your NuWave garage floor coating:
Step 1: Schedule Your Quote
The first step is getting on our schedule for a quote. We’ll walk through your garage, show you flake options, and answer any questions about the coating system or install process.
Step 2: Discuss Any Special Requests
We want to make sure your garage floor is everything you’re envisioning. If you’d like:
Stairs coated
Control joints filled for a seamless look
Or have anything unique in your space (like heavy built-ins or tricky shelving)
Let us know early so we can account for it in the quote and our prep plan.
Need temporary storage? Let us know during the quote if you’d like to rent our secure enclosed trailer. It helps with space, keeps your belongings protected, and lets us schedule the install with your timeline in mind.
Step 3: Clear Out the Garage
We’ll need the garage to be fully cleared out before installation begins. That includes:
Cars, tools, bins, or shop equipment
Wall-mounted items near the floor
Anything resting on the concrete
If you’re tight on space, our trailer rental is a great option for keeping things safe and dry during the project. It comes with wheel locks and door locks, and we deliver it right to your driveway.
Step 4: Understand the Two-Day Process
We don’t do rushed, one-day installs. At NuWave, we follow a two-day process that allows for proper cure time between coats—so your floor lasts longer and holds up better.
Day 1:
Mechanical diamond grinding
Repairs to cracks and joints
Basecoat application + full flake broadcast
Day 2:
Excess flake removal
Touch-ups + polyaspartic topcoat
Cure time begins
We’ll let you know exactly when you can walk and drive on your new floor.
