Want a garage floor that looks finished instead of just painted? Decorative flake flooring is the upgrade path from a solid-color epoxy coat.
San Tan Valley Epoxy Pros runs flake systems on a lot of newer garages, where homeowners want a showroom look over a bare slab that's never been coated. The chips also hide the minor surface variation common on recently poured concrete.

What's included with Decorative Flake Flooring

Customer prep: clear the space fully, since flake broadcast needs clean, uninterrupted floor access.

How our Decorative Flake Flooring process works
Step 1Design Consultation
We review color and flake pattern options against what you actually want the finished floor to look like.
Step 2Surface Preparation
The concrete gets ground and cleaned so the base coat bonds properly.
Step 3Base Coat Application
A pigmented base layer goes down as the background for the flake pattern.
Step 4Flake Broadcast
Chips get broadcast by hand or machine across the wet coating until full coverage is reached.
Step 5Scrape & Smooth
Excess flake gets scraped off to leave an even, uniform texture.
Step 6Clear Topcoat Seal
A clear topcoat locks the flakes in and seals the whole system.

What does a Decorative Flake Flooring cost in San Tan Valley?
Flake flooring runs a premium over solid-color epoxy because of the extra labor step, broadcasting and scraping back the chips before the clear topcoat. Get a free estimate for an exact number based on your garage or patio size.

Decorative Flake Flooring FAQs
Which brand is best for epoxy flooring for flake systems?
Retail flake kits use pre-mixed chips and thin base coats. Professional systems use a dedicated pigmented base and full broadcast coverage, which holds up longer under vehicle traffic.
How much should epoxy flooring cost with a flake upgrade?
Expect to pay more than solid color, typically a few hundred to over a thousand dollars more depending on garage size and flake density.
Can I pick my own flake color blend?
Yes. We review color and density options during the consultation so the finished look matches what you have in mind.
Does flake flooring hide cracks in an older slab?
It helps hide minor surface imperfections, but existing cracks still need repair first. Flake doesn't fix a structural problem underneath it.
How long before I can walk on a new flake floor?
Light foot traffic is usually fine within a day after the topcoat goes on. Full cure for vehicles takes longer.
