Concrete Garage Floor & Parking Pad Installation
New Garage Floor Installation
Building a solid garage floor starts with careful grading and a base that won’t settle over time. Gravel is compacted layer by layer, and steel reinforcement is placed before pouring the slab to handle daily traffic from cars, trucks, or storage. Slabs are poured at a thickness matched to garage use, then finished to prevent dust and make sweeping up easy.
Garage Floor Replacement
Broken, pitted, or stained garage floors are removed section by section, with tools chosen to avoid damage to nearby footings or walls. Crews inspect the sub-base for moisture, soft spots, and previous repairs that might affect the new pour. Once the old slab is cleared, they rebuild the base as needed, lay in fresh steel mesh or bars, and pour a new slab designed to last.
Parking Pad Construction
Parking pads cover everything from family cars to larger vehicles or seasonal storage. The sub-base is graded and packed to prevent settling, with concrete poured to handle the expected load and anchored to keep the pad tight against existing surfaces. Finishing includes precise forming so edge lines stay straight, and a gentle slope for water runoff.
Quality pads keep vehicles stable and make snow removal or washing simple, while standing up to years of use.
Surface Sealing & Coating
Garage and pad surfaces can see tough stains and residue from vehicles, tools, and lawn equipment. Specialized sealers are applied to slow down water absorption and block oil or chemicals from soaking in. Epoxy or slip-resistant coatings can later be used for workshops or high-traffic spaces, improving both appearance and function. These treatments make washing and sweeping easier while helping the concrete resist wear and tear.
Resurfacing & Overlay for Garage Floors
Not every old floor needs to be removed. If the foundation is still solid, a resurfacing overlay repairs surface cracks, minor pitting, or stains. Crews grind the original slab, patch any major areas, and apply a new layer for a consistent look. This process is more cost-effective than full tear-out, gives a fresh finished surface, and provides new opportunities for decorative textures or color upgrades.
Crack & Joint Repair
Small cracks and worn joints need timely attention to stop water and dirt from getting below the surface. Specialized fillers and sealants create a durable, flexible repair that allows for seasonal movement. Crews clean and prep each crack, then match the repair materials to the slab for a smooth finish and longer floor life.
Custom Drainage Solutions
Water is the enemy of any slab or pad. Custom-installed trench or channel drains, along with precise grading, move runoff away from the floor and foundation. For garages that flood or collect puddles, these upgrades are vital for protecting both vehicles and building contents. Drainage plans are mapped out before the first pour for peace of mind with every rain.
Ramp and Threshold Construction
A well-built ramp or threshold ensures a smooth transition between garage floors and parking pads or driveways. Proper pouring and slope allow vehicles to enter and exit effortlessly, while eliminating raised lips or trip hazards. Reinforced edges also protect against chipping and repeated tire traffic. Finished ramps blend with the look of the overall slab and make both daily driving and storage simpler.
Whether it’s replacing damaged concrete, making room for extra vehicles, or fixing drainage issues that cause puddles or stains, every concrete job needs proper planning for the best result.
