Hello,
I was wondering if anybody can recommend a garage flooring contractor in Calgary? From my research it looks like polyaspartic coating in the best, has anybody used anything else?
Cheers

is that different than epoxy?
You should get a big "QUATTO" silk-screened into the floor. lol
It’s supposed to be more durable than epoxy.
It was QUATTNO lol, but 3/6 of my vehicles are BMW so I’ll have to figure out something different
i forgot that quattro wouldnt work...haha.
maybe just go with a plain floor. i need to re-do the garage floor as well. And I'm thinking about installing a lift to fit another car. So might do it all at once.
I had my garage floor done by Elite Coatings. They do both epoxy and polyaspartic coatings. I went with the Epoxy as I saw no benefit going to the polyaspartic coating. If you're working with harsh chemicals often it may be something to consider.
These guys were great They removed everything in my garage, did the work over 2 days then moved everything back in for me.

Here's my mini review of Garage Granite from a few years ago (with pics). Still loving my flooring, time to rinse it off now that the snow is gone so I can see how purdy it is again

Any pictures? And did they throw down sand or something to keep it grippy in the winter?
Granted it's in a different City but I just priced some polyaspartic this week for a commercial job, little over $9.00/sf. I just completed a nice epoxy coat with colour flake on another project at $5.50/s.f.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I say stupid shit all the time.
Was that $5.50 for everything including labour, or did you do it yourself for $5.50?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Been wanting to do this for a while.
My neighbour used Ultimate Garage and his is quite nice but expensive.
Price has me second guessing though, have an oversized triple and suspect it's going to be a fair bit of coin.
Got a few quotes and they were around $5-$6/sf for epoxy and $7/sf for polyaspartic.
I think I will be going with Garage Living as they seemed to be the most professional and seem to do the most prep work.
Going to go 6” up the walls and getting the strairs done too.
Do you currently have a pony wall or are they just going to go up the drywall?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I’m interested in doing the same but my garage isn’t as level as I would like it to be and I’m worried about water ruining the edges and drywall with snow melting off the cars in the winter.

The Garage Store did my polyaspartic flooring 2 years ago. I got them to wrap it up the walls to where it meets the drywall and the stairs as well, averaging ~$7/sqft. Just power washed it last week and looks practically brand new.
Really pleased with their workmanship. Their product also comes with a 20 year warranty (most other places were 10 or less at the time I got quotes).
Not a great pic but it's the only one I took. Mine looks exactly like post above except more gloss.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
About $6/sqft. I think their original quote was $7? before discount. They charged more for the stub walls, closer to $10 iirc. A bit pricey, but after watching them do everything (especially the prep stage) I wouldn't ever take this on myself haha.
I forgot to ask for anti-slip stuff to be applied, and was going to ask them to come back to do it but it was only slippery when it was brand new or if I'm using soap when washing the cars.

That was all in from the vendor we hired. Real all in, not Enrich all in. It looks like your local pricing is relatively the same by the subsequent comments.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I’m putting in some 6” baseboards and they will take the coat up them.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I think they will level it out with their industrial concrete grinder but who knows, I guess it would depend on how out of level it is.
I originally thought about doing the project myself as well but after watching a crew the other day I figured I would let the professionals handle it lol.
I’m having the same debate.
I’m not too far or if spec but I get a bit of pooling in one corner which freezes and doesn’t flow out. Even a couple mil of extra epoxy would probably do the trick to get it to flow out the door.

I used Ultimate Garage a few years ago. Did it all the way up the foundation wall.
