Metallic epoxy floors we put down
Metallic garage floors
A glossy, swirled epoxy floor over your garage slab. It suits a garage you park in, work in or just want to look finished when the door goes up.
Metallic floors for shops and rooms
The same layered system on a shop, showroom or indoor slab, when you want a floor with depth and movement instead of plain gray concrete.
What is metallic epoxy flooring, and is it right for my floor?
Metallic epoxy flooring is a coating we build in layers over the concrete in your Martinez, CA garage, shop or home. It's usually a primer that soaks into the slab, a colored base coat, a metallic epoxy coat and a clear finish on top, and you end up with a glossy floor that has swirls and depth a plain coating doesn't.
Most people who call us are looking at a gray slab that's stained, dusty or chipped, and they want a floor that looks finished. The price moves with the size of the floor, how much grinding and crack repair the slab needs, and the clear coat you choose. The schedule turns on that same prep and on each coat curing before the next one goes on. Your price comes in the written estimate after I've looked at the slab.
Prep, color and coats on a metallic floor
I look at the slab and how you'll use it first, and I'll say so if metallic isn't right. A busy shop may suit urethane cement flooring better, and a plainer look suits polished concrete flooring.
Moisture test first
We test the slab for moisture coming up from below before we coat it, because a damp slab is a common reason floors peel.
Grinding, repairs and cleaning
Our crew grinds the concrete, fills cracks and pits and pulls out oil, so the primer can soak in and hold.
Colors picked as one look
We choose the base coat and metallic colors with you as one finished look, rather than picking each off a chart on its own.
A clear coat that handles sun
In a garage we finish with a clear coat that stands up to sun, since one cost guide says an epoxy clear coat yellows within one summer.
Why Martinez owners pick Stonefield for metallic floors
I taught myself floor coatings on my own garage, then learned the rest working beside experienced crews, and I've run this business in Martinez since 2017. We put our time into the slab under the color, because that's where most peeling floors went wrong.
I look at your floor myself
I come out myself to look at your floor and write the estimate. Our crew does the prep and the install, and I'm on the job with them.
Licensed, insured, honest about variation
We're licensed and fully insured. One coating maker calls metallic systems extremely hard to install, with variables no installer controls, so I tell you up front how your floor may vary.
Satisfaction guaranteed, plan agreed first
Satisfaction guaranteed. Before you sign, I go over the prep, the colors and the clear coat we'll use, so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Metallic epoxy questions we hear
How much does metallic epoxy flooring cost per square foot?
Across the US, professionally installed metallic epoxy usually runs about $8 to $15 per square foot, and that includes grinding, moisture testing and a clear topcoat. Where your floor lands depends on its size, how much repair the slab needs and the clear coat you pick. Your own price comes in the written estimate after I've seen the slab.
How long does a metallic epoxy garage floor take to install?
One cost guide puts a standard garage at about 12 to 17 labor hours spread over 2 to 3 days. Plan to clear the garage out and park somewhere else for that stretch.
Why does the base coat color matter on a metallic epoxy floor?
The metallic coat is see-through, so the base color under it shapes how the whole floor looks. That's why you pick the base and metallic colors together, since the same metallic over a different base gives you a different floor.
How do I get my garage ready for a metallic epoxy floor in Martinez?
Move everything out and let us know about oil stains before we start. One coating maker says oil, silicone and other contaminants can cause fisheyes, small craters in the metallic coat, so we clean those spots before any coating goes down.
Is it safe to be in the house while an epoxy floor is installed?
It's best to keep yourself, kids and pets out of the space being coated. One maker warns epoxy vapor can cause headaches, nausea and irritation of the nose, throat and lungs, and strongly recommends respirators, so we keep the space aired out while we work.
What should I ask an epoxy floor installer before hiring them?
Ask whether the quote includes a moisture test and machine prep of the concrete. One maker says slabs should be tested for high moisture vapor before coating and recommends shot blasting or planetary grinding, machines that open up the surface, before its metallic system goes on. Our estimates spell out the testing and grinding we'll do.
Other floors worth a look
Urethane Cement Flooring
If your floor takes heat, hot water or heavy spills, as in a shop or commercial kitchen, this tougher system may serve it better than metallic.

If you like the look of bare concrete, we grind and polish the slab itself to a sheen, with no colored coating on top.

For a garage that needs a tough, practical floor more than a showpiece, a standard coating gets the same careful prep with a simpler look.

Metallic epoxy flooring in Martinez and nearby cities
The Martinez Building Department issues building permits to homeowners and licensed contractors for construction inside city limits, but that general rule doesn't settle whether a coating job like this needs one. If you want to check, call the city's permits line at (925) 372-3515, and the Permit Center is open weekdays from 8:00 to 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. If your job does need a permit, we sort out with you which city or county office covers your address and who pulls it, and we work with that office from there.
We're based in Martinez and take jobs here and in the cities around it in Contra Costa and Solano counties. Lots of garages we see have older slabs with oil spots, patched cracks or a worn coating, so we plan the grinding around what we find, the same as on jobs in Concord and Benicia.
