About Flake & Seal

Flake & Seal is a new epoxy flooring business in Louisville, one year in, with a team of four. It works on residential and commercial floors, and its posted hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, with no weekend hours.

The listing does not break out specific services, but the name points to a common style of coating: a base coat with decorative vinyl flakes broadcast into it, sealed under a clear topcoat. That finish is popular on garage floors because the flakes hide dust and minor imperfections and add some texture underfoot.

In Kentucky, garage floors take a beating from winter road salt and slush dripping off cars, which can pit and scale bare concrete. A coated floor resists stains from oil and chemicals and is easier to sweep and mop. The quality of the result depends heavily on preparation: the concrete is usually ground to open the surface so the coating can grip, cracks and pits are filled, and any moisture coming up through the slab is checked, since trapped moisture can cause coatings to lift. Curing time matters before parking cars on the new surface.

When you contact Flake & Seal, give the size of the floor, its current condition including cracks or old coatings, and how the space is used. Ask about color and flake options and how long the area will be out of use.
