A peeling paint or DIY kit has to be ground off before anything new bonds. Budget more labor than a bare slab.
Cracks, pits, spalled edges and trench-drain lips get filled and ground flush. Priced by how much there is.
Older and below-grade Northwest Arkansas slabs can push vapor up from underneath. Where the test says so, a moisture-tolerant primer is added.
Solid color is the low end, flake the middle, metallic the top. Extra clear coats add wear thickness and cost.
Slip-resistant additive, border lines, coved base, painted walls or a second display bay each add to the number.
| Big-box DIY kit | Professional system | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical cost | $150–$600 in materials | $5–$9 / sq ft installed |
| Prep method | Acid etch (kit instructions) | Diamond grinding |
| Coating thickness | Thin, often water-based | 100% solids high build |
| Hot-tire resistance | Commonly lifts in 1–2 seasons | Rated for hot tires |
| Your time | A full weekend plus grinder rental | None |
Asked and answered
A typical two-car garage in Northwest Arkansas is 400 to 480 square feet, and a professionally installed flake epoxy system runs about $2,000 to $4,300. A solid color is roughly $1,200 to $2,900 and a metallic pour is $3,200 to $6,700. Removing an old failing coating, patching cracks or treating slab moisture is quoted on top of those ranges.
$3 to $6 per square foot for solid color, $5 to $9 for a flake system, $7 to $11 for quartz broadcast, and $8 to $14 for metallic — installed, including diamond grinding and a polyaspartic topcoat.
Almost all of the difference is prep and film build. A kit is thin, usually water-based, and tells you to acid etch. A professional install diamond-grinds the slab, repairs it, primes it and lays a 100% solids base under a polyaspartic topcoat, which is what survives hot tires.
Yes. Grinding off a failing coating and repairing cracks, pits and spalled edges is labor, and labor is the majority of a coating quote. We look at the slab or clear photos of it before giving a number.
No. Estimates are free anywhere in Northwest Arkansas — Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers, Bentonville, Bella Vista, Siloam Springs, Lowell and Centerton — and the quote breaks out prep, coats and topcoat so you can compare it against other bids line by line.
Most residential garages are a one to two day install. Foot traffic returns first and vehicles after the topcoat reaches full cure; you get dated milestones for your specific floor at the estimate.
