Durable, Textured Floors That Hide Dirt and Stand Up to Daily Use
A flake epoxy system is the most popular floor we install — and for good reason. Decorative vinyl flakes are broadcast into the base coat and sealed under a clear topcoat, creating a speckled, granite-like finish that adds texture, hides dust and wear, and stands up to tires, tools and foot traffic. It's the go-to choice for garages and a hard-working option for basements, workshops, locker rooms and commercial spaces across Chicagoland.
A full-broadcast flake floor turns bare, stained concrete into a bright, seamless surface that's easy to sweep and mop. The flakes add grip underfoot, hide everyday dust and salt residue, and make the floor more forgiving of small scratches than a plain color.
Every system starts with grinding the slab and repairing cracks and pitting so the coating bonds to sound concrete, then finishes with a clear protective topcoat that resists road salt, oil and hot tires.
Flake systems aren't just for homes. Hallways, locker rooms, restrooms, break rooms, showrooms and service areas all benefit from a seamless, textured floor that cleans quickly and keeps looking good under heavy foot traffic.
Choose a flake blend to match your brand or interior, from subtle grays to bold multi-color blends.
Flake epoxy combines durability, grip and good looks in one system, which is why it's the most requested floor for garages and high-traffic spaces.
The multi-color pattern breaks up the surface, so dust, salt residue and small scratches are far less noticeable than on a solid color.
Broadcast flakes add texture for better footing, and extra anti-slip additive can be included for wet areas.
A multi-layer flake system adds thickness that stands up to tires, dropped tools and daily wear.
Choose from a wide range of flake blends and base colors to match your home or business.

It's a multi-layer system: a base coat with decorative vinyl flakes broadcast into it while wet, sealed under a clear protective topcoat. The result is a textured, speckled floor that's durable and easy to clean.
A professionally installed flake system typically lasts 10–20 years or more, depending on traffic, prep and maintenance.
Flake floors have more texture than smooth coatings, which helps with footing. For wet areas we can add an anti-slip additive to the topcoat.
Most residential flake floors are completed in 1–2 days, depending on the size of the space and the condition of the concrete.
