You may see other companies offering a “lifetime warranty,” but the truth is that epoxy floors are not lifetime products. These warranties often rely on vague language and hidden exclusions that leave homeowners unprotected. At Maverick Epoxy, we take a different approach. We’re upfront about what epoxy can realistically handle and how long it can last. Even with the best installation and care, like any coating, epoxy floors will eventually show wear—typically after 10–20 years, or sooner in heavy‑use environments.
Our 5‑year adhesion and delamination warranty reflects real‑world performance, not marketing hype.
Polyaspartic and epoxy are both excellent coatings with their own strengths. At Maverick Epoxy — just like many other professional installers — we use both to create the highest‑quality flooring system. Epoxy as the base coat provides unmatched adhesion and build, while polyaspartic as the topcoat delivers superior UV stability, durability, and long‑term protection. If you’ve seen ads claiming epoxy is “bad” or “outdated,” they’re very misleading. Neither product is inferior; they simply perform best when used together as a complete, professional system.
Our floors are sealed with polyaspartic, a highly UV‑stable topcoat that dramatically reduces the risk of yellowing over time. When floors peel — including issues like hot‑tire pickup — the cause isn’t the sealer, but what’s underneath it. Peeling happens when the wrong primer is used, the surface isn’t properly prepped, the coating is applied too thin, the product doesn’t cure correctly, or the layers aren’t compatible. At Maverick Epoxy, preventing these issues isn’t just part of the job — it is the job. We handle every step with precision so your floor bonds correctly, cures correctly, and lasts for years.
You can install epoxy yourself, but whether the time, money, and risk are worth it is debatable. Without experience, DIY installations often lead to floors that only look good for a couple months — or fail quickly and require professional removal. The risks come from the major things DIY kits simply don’t include:
• Proper slab grinding — The most important step. Without mechanical grinding, epoxy cannot bond to the concrete, leading to peeling, flaking, and delamination.
• Industrial‑grade materials — DIY kits use watered‑down coatings that finish around 5–8 mils thick. Professional systems (like ours at Maverick Epoxy) finish at 20–40 mils for real durability.
• Professional topcoats — Without a UV‑stable polyaspartic topcoat, epoxy will yellow, fade, and lose its gloss over time.
• Experienced installation — Once epoxy is mixed, the clock starts. You have a limited window to spread, level, and broadcast flakes correctly. Mistakes can’t be undone, and DIY kits offer no warranty if something goes wrong.
Installation timelines vary based on the scope of the project. A standard garage floor can typically be completed in one day, while larger or more complex projects may take several days to a few weeks. The exact duration depends on the materials selected, the size of the space, and the current condition of the concrete. We’ll review all timing expectations during your appointment so both parties have a clear understanding of the schedule.
You don’t need to leave your home during an epoxy installation unless the floor being coated is one you rely on every day. Our high‑quality products are low‑odor and low‑VOC (volatile organic compounds — the chemicals that create strong smells and can cause headaches or irritation). Most customers can walk on their new floor within 12 hours and drive on it within 24 hours.
If you’re highly sensitive to smells, stepping out for a bit may be a good option. The only other reason someone might choose to leave is the loud grinding and vacuuming noise during surface preparation.
At Maverick Epoxy, we believe in complete transparency with our pricing. Every system we offer has a clear starting rate, and final pricing may vary slightly based on the specific coating, finish, or customization you choose.
