Why flake broadcast is the most popular floor we install
A full-flake floor is the workhorse of epoxy finishes. Vinyl color flakes are broadcast wall-to-wall into a wet pigmented base coat, then locked under a clear topcoat. The speckled surface reads like granite, hides dust and tire scuffs between cleanings, and adds real traction compared to a smooth gloss floor.
It is the finish most Boise homeowners pick for a garage, and the one that keeps looking clean the longest in a hard-working shop. If you want the deep marbled look instead, see our metallic epoxy floors; for warehouses and bay floors, see commercial epoxy.
Pick from more than 80 flake colors
Flake blends run from subtle gray-on-gray to bold multi-color mixes, in flake sizes from 1/16 inch up to 1 inch. Custom combinations can be created to match your home or style, so the floor can be as quiet or as loud as you want it.
Epoxy or polyaspartic underneath, your call
Both systems take a flake broadcast well. Epoxy absorbs into the concrete for the strongest bond and dries overnight; polyaspartic is a one-day process with a fast return to service. We explain the trade-offs plainly on the free estimate, and epoxy systems are backed by a lifetime warranty against peeling or lifting.

How your flake floor gets installed
Diamond-grind prep
We mechanically grind the slab to open the concrete's pores, then repair cracks and spalling. Prep is what keeps a coating from peeling, so we never skip it.
Base coat and full flake broadcast
A pigmented base coat goes down, and flakes are broadcast to full coverage while it is wet, wall to wall with no thin spots.
Scrape and clear topcoat
Once cured, the excess flake is scraped smooth and the floor is sealed under a clear protective topcoat that carries the gloss and the durability.

Flake epoxy questions, answered
What is flake epoxy flooring?
A flake (or broadcast) epoxy floor starts with a pigmented epoxy base coat. While that coat is still wet, vinyl color flakes are broadcast across the whole surface, then the floor is scraped smooth and sealed under a clear protective topcoat. The result is a speckled, granite-look finish that hides dust and scuffs, adds texture underfoot, and wipes clean.
How many flake colors are there to choose from?
More than 80 flake color blends, with flake sizes from 1/16 inch up to 1 inch. Custom color combinations can also be created to match your home or style, so you are not locked into a handful of stock looks.
Is a flake floor slippery?
Flake floors are naturally more textured than a smooth high-gloss coating, so they offer better traction, including when wet. That texture is one of the main reasons flake broadcast is the most popular system for garages and shops in the Treasure Valley.
How much does a flake epoxy floor cost in Boise?
It depends on square footage, slab condition, and the system you choose. As a market reference, national cost guides such as HomeGuide and Angi put professionally installed epoxy flooring at roughly $3 to $12 per square foot. The phone estimate that pins down your number is free.
How long does a flake epoxy floor last?
With proper diamond-grind preparation, a flake epoxy floor is a long-term surface, not a coat of paint. Epoxy systems carry a lifetime warranty against peeling or lifting, and polyaspartic systems carry a 10-year warranty against peeling or lifting.
Epoxy or polyaspartic under the flakes: which should I pick?
Both take a flake broadcast well. Epoxy absorbs into the concrete and is the stronger, more chemical-resistant build; it dries overnight, so the job finishes the next morning. Polyaspartic is a one-day process with a fast return to service. We walk you through the trade-offs on the free estimate and install whichever fits how you use the space.
How long does a flake epoxy floor take to install?
Most flake jobs run prep and the base coat with the flake broadcast on the first visit, then the scrape and the clear topcoat once that coat cures. With an epoxy base that dries overnight, so the job finishes the next morning; a polyaspartic build runs as a one-day process. Square footage and slab condition move the schedule, and the timeline is in your free estimate.
Does flake epoxy work on an old, stained garage slab?
Usually, yes. The slab gets diamond-ground to open the surface, and cracks, pits, and spalling get repaired before any coating goes down. Old stains and past paint jobs come off in the grind. What stops a job is a slab with a serious moisture problem or wide, actively moving cracks, and we tell you that at the estimate rather than after.
How do you clean and maintain a flake floor?
Sweep out grit and winter road sand, then damp mop with mild soap and water when it needs it. Oil, brake fluid, and antifreeze sit on top of the sealed topcoat instead of soaking in, so spills wipe up. Skip harsh solvent cleaners, which can dull the topcoat over the years. The flake texture also hides everyday dust and scuffs between cleanings.
What should I clear out before the crew arrives?
Clear the space of vehicles, stored items, and anything mounted low on the walls so the crew can reach the whole slab. You do not need to supply anything else; we bring all equipment and materials. Prep and coating create some odor and dust, so keep the interior door to the house closed while we work.
