Concrete Staining and Epoxy Floor Covering
The process of concrete staining adds a permanent color to the surface, which bonds tightly so you won’t have to worry about peeling or chipping. The end result is a beautiful translucent hue that enriches the look and feel of any space, indoor or out.
Many property or homeowners choose to epoxy their floors for a variety of reasons. When the epoxy is applied to a concrete floor, it provides a clear, durable, stain-resistant finish that protects the surface. It also repels water and reduces slipperiness, perfect for high-traffic areas.
Both residential and commercial properties can benefit from the beauty of concrete staining and the protection of epoxy. Concrete staining is especially popular in these areas:
- Sidewalks
- Walkway
- Driveway
- Basement floor
- Garage floor
- Patio
- Pool deck
- Courtyard
- Showroom floor

Common Questions About Epoxy Flooring Projects
How much does epoxy flooring cost?
Pricing will vary depending on the size of the area, the type of epoxy used, and the labor rates in your area. Set up a free estimate appointment with CertaPro Painters® of Richmond Hill and Vaughan to get accurate pricing information for your unique project.
Are epoxy floors slippery?
Non-slip coatings are optional. An epoxy floor without chips can be slippery when wet, so most applications include anti-slip steps like chips or texturing of the epoxy for safety.

The duration of the project will depend on the size of the area and the product used. Some floor coating products can be installed in one day. Most standard residential projects can be completed within 1-3 days.
How long does it take for epoxy floors to dry?
The cure time will vary depending on the epoxy product used. Some products require as little as 24 hours cure time. If you are getting epoxy installed in your garage, we recommend waiting at least 48 hours before driving on the surface.
