We know you’ll love them as well.
Who is Our Manufacturer of Choice?
For our standard luxury garage floor installations, Craftsman Concrete Floors’ manufacturer of choice to transform the everyday, average residential concrete floor is, Westcoat.
And for a variety of reasons.
Unlike garage floor paint (another common garage floor coating for many residential concrete floors) which is usually comprised of one component – acrylic garage floor paint– epoxy floor coatings are a perfect blend of two components: an epoxy resin and a polyamine hardener. This dual-component product informs many things for the consumer such as its extreme strength against heavyweights and loads, ability to withstand high traffic, and more.
However, it’s not just the product itself we favor but the details that back our manufacturer of choice. Westcoat’s American-made products only use inputs sourced from Germany, or domestically, which ensures a high standard of quality control.
So what might this mean for Craftsman Concrete Floors clients?
A standard of quality control that is both stringent and reliable means we can ensure the quality of the epoxy coating systems we apply to every square foot of our residential garage floors are always:
- Strong
- Easy-to-clean
- Durable against even the highest of traffic, loads, and chemical and oil spills.
Adding an extra incentive to the mix, Westcoat’s line of epoxy products is also VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) compliant. As a business that strives to always leave our environment better than we found it, Craftsman Concrete has committed ourselves to an environmental pledge in which the products we use meet a stringent level of expectations and regulations as to not add to our world’s air and water pollution.
On the other side of the coin, however, are lower-quality epoxy products that can be found through many other independent businesses and local hardware stores. These lower, less-regulated products depend on Chinese inputs. Throughout the years we’ve found these inferior products to have a host of quality control issues that can impact the longevity and appearance of the installation, as well as a negative impact on the environment.

Epoxy Services We Offer
Other Epoxy Services we Offer
ESD EPOXY
ESD epoxy floors are a two-part resin system designed to create a conductive surface that eliminates static electricity build-up and prevents electrostatic discharge. This specialized material is used to safeguard delicate electronic components from static electricity and minimize the possibility of damage or explosions. We install ESD epoxy floors for many different uses such as electronics manufacturing and testing, logistics, and data centers.
Urethane Cement
Urethane cement is an extremely durable flooring material commonly used in manufacturing installations such as food and beverage manufacturing, pharmaceutical manufacturing and defense industry manufacturing. Urethane cement is made up of three components: a urethane polymer binder, Portland cement and sand aggregates. This tough combination allows the surface to stand up to extreme wear and tear–offering high chemical resistance and extreme resistance to thermal shock.
