A New Standard for the Modern Garage

For decades, garages were treated like unfinished afterthoughts — dusty concrete, stains, cracks, and clutter. Today, homeowners across the country are transforming their garages into clean, durable, high-performance extensions of their living space. At the center of this movement is the epoxy flake floor.


Durafloor is proud to be part of the Finished Garage Revolution, helping homeowners create spaces that look better, function better, and last longer than ever before.


What Exactly Is a Flake Floor?

Flake floors — also called decorative chip floors — combine industrial-grade epoxy or polyurea with vinyl flakes and a protective topcoat. The result is a garage floor that is:

  • Damage-resistant

  • Slip-resistant

  • UV-stable

  • Easy to clean

  • Engineered to last 10–20+ years


It’s the most popular choice for homeowners who want a garage that looks finished, polished, and professional.


Why Flake Floors Have Become the Gold Standard

1. The Aesthetic Transformation Is Immediate

Flake floors turn a dull concrete slab into a smooth, clean, designer surface. It’s the type of transformation you can see from the street as soon as the garage door opens.


2. Durability That Outperforms Bare Concrete

Oil spills, chemicals, salt, road grime, heavy equipment — flake floors handle it all. They protect the concrete underneath from damage and extend the lifespan of the garage itself.


3. A Cleaner, Healthier Space

Bare concrete produces dust. Flake floors seal the surface, eliminating concrete dust and creating a healthier environment inside the home.


4. A Better Experience Every Day

A finished floor makes the entire garage feel more welcoming — whether you’re working on a project, parking the car, or using the garage as a home gym or entryway.


The Role of Flake Floors in the Finished Garage Revolution

Homeowners today expect their garages to be as polished as the rest of the house. A modern garage is:

  • Part storage system

  • Part workshop

  • Part showroom

  • Part clean entryway into the home

A flake floor is the foundation that makes the rest of the transformation possible.
