Garage Floor Coating
in Ann Arbor, MI.

Ann Arbor's housing spans more than a century. About one in seven homes in the city was built before 1940 — the Queen Annes, bungalows, and Tudors of Burns Park and Lower Burns Park, and the 1860-to-World-War-I frame houses of the Old West Side. But the single biggest building decade was the 1960s, which accounts for more than a fifth of the city's housing. That's the era of Georgetown's brick ranches and Cape Cods near Ellsworth and Stone School Road, the Lansdowne ranches and tri-levels off Scio Church Road, and Glacier Highlands on the northeast side, where homes typically came with full basements and two- or three-car attached garages.

Those eras wear out differently. A 1960s attached-garage slab has lived through roughly sixty Michigan freeze-thaw seasons — pitting at the apron, spalled control joints, spider cracks, and decades of oil and salt soaked into bare concrete. Older basements in the pre-war neighborhoods tend to be the real project: patched, uneven, and porous floors that have never been sealed. And in Ann Arbor Hills, where mid-century modern homes sit next to historic estates and brand-new construction, we see everything in a single street. We grind, repair, and moisture-test each floor for what it actually is.

And Ann Arbor garages work hard. Kayaks and paddleboards headed to Argo Park and Gallup Park, bikes for the Border-to-Border Trail along the Huron River, sleds for the hills at Burns Park, tailgate gear on Michigan football Saturdays — the garage is the staging area for all of it. A coated floor makes it a space you can actually keep clean.
