Flooring Contractor in Antioch, CA - Garage and Shop Floors Built on Good Prep
Pittsburg Epoxy Floors and Concrete is a flooring contractor working in Antioch, CA, where we coat, polish, seal and resurface concrete floors in garages, homes, shops and warehouses, and take on the odd floors others pass on.
Antioch floors we're called out to
Antioch sits right next door to Pittsburg, so it's a short drive for our crew, and the calls we get here run from home garages and backyard patios to shop and warehouse floors in the city's commercial areas. Homeowners usually call when a garage floor is stained, dusty or peeling from a coating that didn't last, and business owners call when a floor can't keep up with carts, forklifts and spills. We do the same work nearby in Concord and Oakley.
What's already on the slab decides most of an Antioch job. A lot of the garages we see have been sealed, painted or patched over the years, and every one of those layers has to come off before a new coating will hold, so I want to see the floor and check it for moisture before I tell you what it can take.
What Antioch slabs have to stand up to
Most floors I'm called to look at in Antioch are garages, patios and shop floors, and the trouble with them usually starts in the slab, not the coating on top.
Antioch averages about 13 inches of rain a year, so garage floors and patios spend most of the year dry and in the sun.
A dry climate doesn't mean a dry slab, because moisture can still come up from below and lift a coating that went down over it.
Hot tires can lift thin store-bought garage coatings, which is one of the failures we're called most often to fix.
Shop and warehouse floors here take forklifts, dropped tools and spilled chemicals, so they need a heavier system than a house garage does.
That's why I want to see your floor in person, so the estimate fits what your slab can really handle and not what a brochure says.

Floor and concrete services we offer in Antioch
Epoxy Floor Coatings
A solid epoxy coat turns a dusty, stained Antioch garage or workshop slab into a floor you can sweep clean, once we've ground it and fixed the cracks.
Commercial & Industrial Epoxy Floor Coatings
For shops, warehouses and service bays in Antioch that see forklifts, spills and steady traffic, we put down a thicker system built for the abuse.
Garage Floor Coatings
Garage floors are what we're best known for, usually flake color under a tough topcoat that stands up to hot tires, oil drips and dragged trash bins.
Polyaspartic Floor Coatings
Polyaspartic cures faster than epoxy and holds up in sun, so it suits an Antioch garage you need back quickly or a floor by an open door.
Metallic Epoxy Flooring
Metallic epoxy gives a living room, home office or showroom a glossy, swirled finish, and it only looks right over a slab we've prepped flat and clean.
Urethane Cement Flooring
Urethane cement is what we suggest for Antioch commercial kitchens, food prep rooms and wash bays that see hot water, grease and harsh cleaners every day.
Polished Concrete Flooring
If your house or shop already has a sound slab, polishing it brings up a hard, glossy surface without adding a coating that could peel later.
Stained Concrete Flooring
Stain puts color right into the concrete on patios, entries and interior slabs, and a sealer on top helps it hold that color through sunny summers.
Terrazzo Flooring
Terrazzo suits an entry, lobby or commercial space in Antioch where you want stone or glass chips set into a smooth, hard floor.
Basement Flooring
For a basement or below-grade room, we check the slab for moisture first, since that's what usually ruins a basement floor before anything else does.
Concrete Grinding & Surface Preparation
Our coating jobs in Antioch start here, grinding off old sealer, paint and stains so the new floor bonds to clean, open concrete.
Concrete Sealing
A good sealer helps driveways, patios and bare garage slabs shed oil and dirt, and it needs redoing now and then as the sun wears it down.
Concrete Resurfacing & Overlays
When a patio, walkway or garage slab is worn, flaking or patched but still solid underneath, an overlay gives you a new surface without tearing it out.
Self-Leveling Concrete & Overlays
Self-leveling overlay fills dips and uneven spots in a slab, so tile, wood or a coating can go down on a flat floor instead of a wavy one.
Pool Deck Coatings & Resurfacing
We resurface and coat Antioch pool decks with a textured finish that gives better footing when it's wet, and lighter colors stay cooler in the sun.
Concrete Floor Stripping & Removal
We strip peeling coatings, garage paint, tile mastic and worn sealer down to bare concrete, so your new floor isn't bonding to an old failure.

Why Antioch homeowners and shop owners call us
I sold floor coatings for years before I installed them, so I'll tell you plainly what your floor can handle and skip the pitch. We've been doing this work since 2017.
I look at your slab myself
I come out for every estimate and check the concrete for cracks, old coatings and moisture before I recommend anything. I'm on the job for the prep too, since that's where most floors go right or wrong.
Our own crew, licensed and insured
We're licensed and fully insured, and our own installers do the work. I check in through the rest of the job after prep, and every floor is backed by our satisfaction guarantee.
Permits checked before work starts
We check with the City of Antioch for your address before we start, and if your job needs a permit, we pull it and handle the paperwork. Call (925) 318-8041 and ask about yours.
Antioch floor coating questions we hear
Do I need a permit for an epoxy garage floor in Antioch, CA?
The city's permit rules don't name floor coatings, so we check with Antioch's Building Services Division for your address before any work starts. The division issues building permits and inspects construction, and its exempt list covers most residential concrete flat work, but a coating or overlay isn't spelled out there. If your job needs a permit, we pull it and handle the paperwork.
Does work on my driveway apron need a separate permit in Antioch?
Yes, if any of the work is in the public right-of-way, the city's land along the street, the Engineering Division requires a separate encroachment permit, and that includes curb cuts and driveway changes. Resurfacing or sealing the part of the driveway on your own lot is a different question, and we check it with the city like any other job. Owners and contractors can apply online, and when one is needed, we pull it.
When does a flooring contractor need a California state license?
In California, a contractor needs a state license when the project needs a building permit, uses any additional workers, or costs $1,000 or more in labor and materials, counted across all the contracts on the job. That's the Contractors State License Board's rule, and on top of it, Antioch requires a current business license from anyone doing business in the city, subcontractors included. We're licensed and fully insured.
What causes garage floor coatings to peel in Antioch?
Most peeling coatings went wrong before the first coat went down, because the slab wasn't ground open, old sealer was left on, or moisture was coming up through the concrete. Hot tires then pull the weak spots loose. The dry weather here doesn't rule out a damp slab, so I take readings where they're needed and we grind to bare concrete before we coat.
How much does an epoxy garage floor cost in Antioch?
Your price comes down mostly to the size of the floor, how much prep the slab needs and which coating system you choose, so I give you a written number after I've seen it. Grinding off old sealer, stripping a peeling coating, filling cracks or dealing with moisture all add work, while a sound, bare slab keeps it down. A flake garage system, a polyaspartic topcoat and a metallic finish each price differently, and I'll walk you through what each one gets you.
How long does a garage floor coating take before I can park on it?
The wait before you park on it is set by the coating maker's cure time, and it's usually longer for epoxy than for a fast-curing polyaspartic. The rest of the schedule turns on prep, since a slab that needs stripping, crack repair or moisture work takes longer to get ready than a clean one. I'll tell you what to plan for when I give you the estimate.
