Garage Epoxy Floor Cost Calculator

Enter your garage size and coating system to estimate kits, surface prep, labor, and total budget.

Prefills a crack-repair allowance you can edit below.

Epoxy and polyaspartic are different resin systems with different coverage and durability.

Diamond grinding gives a better profile than acid etching for pro-grade systems.

Important: Epoxy and polyaspartic release solvent fumes during application — ventilate the space and wear appropriate respiratory protection. Professional-grade systems require a proper surface profile (usually diamond grinding). Always follow the manufacturer instructions.

How We Calculated This

  • Floor area = length (ft) × width (ft).
  • Kits needed = ceil(area × coats ÷ coverage per kit), where coverage is per the chosen resin system.
  • Materials = kits × kit unit price.
  • Surface prep = area × prep rate (etch or grind), added to Other.
  • Labor = area × labor rate × (1 + 0.3 × (coats − 1)) — coats add sub-linear labor on top of the material multiplier.
  • Crack repair = user allowance (prefilled from floor condition), added to Other.
  • Total = materials + surface prep + labor + crack repair + contingency. Cost per sq ft = total ÷ area.

Assumptions

  • All prices are editable planning assumptions, not verified national averages.
  • Epoxy and polyaspartic are different resin systems with different coverage and durability.
  • Concrete must be fully cured and dry before coating.

What's excluded

  • Moisture vapor barrier remediation
  • Major slab repair or leveling
  • Floor drain work
