What we help coat
Basement epoxy & concrete coatings for Apex homes
A bare basement slab collects dust, shows every stain, and makes the space feel unfinished. A properly prepped epoxy or polyaspartic coating seals the concrete, cuts dust, and gives you a floor you can actually live on — whether you're finishing a family room or just cleaning up storage.
Flake (Chip) Epoxy
Decorative vinyl chips for texture and grip — a popular choice for basement home gyms, playrooms, and finished living space.
Flake epoxy flooringMetallic Epoxy
A poured, marbled look with depth and shine — often chosen for finished basements and entertainment spaces that need to feel like design, not utility.
Metallic epoxy flooringGarage Floor Coatings
Full-flake or solid-color systems for hot tires and daily wear — the same contractors who coat basements also handle Apex garages.
Garage floor coatingsWhy prep matters
Moisture-aware prep for NC basements
Basement slabs often deal with humidity and vapor drive that garage slabs don't. Skipping moisture checks or grinding is a common reason basement coatings blister or peel.
Independent local contractors mechanically grind the slab, assess moisture, repair cracks and pits, and only then apply a system suited to below-grade concrete — so the finish bonds and holds up.
- Diamond grinding for a real mechanical bond
- Moisture-aware system selection for basements
- Crack, pit, and joint repair before coating
- Solid-color, flake, or metallic finishes

Common questions
Basement floor coating FAQs
Can you coat a basement floor in Apex?
Yes. Basements are one of the most common concrete coating projects — a sealed floor cuts dust, resists stains, and makes the space far more usable. A contractor will check for moisture and recommend the right system.
How much does basement floor coating cost?
Coatings typically run about $3–$7 per square foot depending on slab condition, moisture mitigation needs, and the finish you choose. Metallic and multi-coat flake systems sit toward the higher end. The best number comes from a free on-site estimate.
Will it handle humidity and moisture?
Below-grade slabs need moisture-aware prep and the right coating system. Independent contractors assess vapor drive and humidity during the estimate and choose a finish suited to basement conditions.
How long before I can use the basement again?
Most residential basement jobs are one to two days. Polyaspartic top coats often handle foot traffic the next day; traditional epoxy systems need a little more cure time. A contractor will give you exact timing for your finish.
