Are garage tiles cheaper than epoxy?

Up front, usually. Over ten years the gap closes fast because tiles shift, stain and get replaced while a properly prepped coating gets a recoat.

Can I put epoxy down after removing tiles?

Yes. We grind off whatever the tiles left behind, patch the slab and pour.
