Finished floors for Shore properties
In Avalon and Stone Harbor, an unfinished concrete floor is often the one space that still feels like an afterthought — a bare garage, a utility room, a storage area. A professionally prepared coating turns that slab into a cleaner, more intentional part of the property: easy to sweep out after a day at the beach, simple to keep clean through sand and everyday use, and finished in a way that sits comfortably with the rest of the home. We plan every project around the existing concrete, how the space is used, and the look you're after — not a single default floor.
Homes & Second Homes
Primary residences and second homes alike, where an unfinished slab can be turned into a cleaner, more intentional part of the property.
Garages & Utility Spaces
Garages, storage rooms, and utility areas that see vehicles, gear, and everyday Shore use — kept easy to sweep and simple to clean.
Finish That Fits the Property
Flake, metallic, and solid-color finishes selected to sit comfortably with the look of the surrounding home rather than stand out.
Local Businesses
Retail, restaurants, and service spaces that need a presentable, hard-wearing floor built around how the space is used.
Garage floors that feel like part of the property
In well-finished Shore homes, a garage often does more than park a car. Many hold bikes, beach chairs and boards, kayaks, and seasonal gear, and some double as a workshop or activity space. A bare slab handling all of that shows every bit of sand, salt, and wear.
A professionally finished concrete floor pulls the space together — a clean, cohesive surface that sweeps out easily and holds up to the way the garage is actually used. We evaluate the existing concrete, plan the preparation, and mechanically prepare the surface before installing a system chosen around that use, then finish it with the look you want — often our SS-HF1™ flake build or another decorative flake finish.
Not every garage is a multipurpose space, and not every one gets the same system. The right build depends on the slab and how you use the room.


Residential concrete beyond the garage
Plenty of the concrete in an Avalon or Stone Harbor home lives outside the garage — utility spaces, storage rooms, workshops, basements where applicable, and appropriate patio or concrete areas supported by our existing offerings.
Each of these gets a system chosen for how it's used and what the slab can carry rather than a single default coating. For second and seasonal homes in particular, a clean, durable floor holds up to stretches of quiet and bursts of heavy use without extra upkeep — and looks like a finished part of the property the whole time.
The finish should fit the property
On a finished Shore property, how the floor looks matters — but it still has to work for how the space is used. We help you choose a finish around the appearance you want while keeping the everyday reality of the room in mind, from a flake garage floor to a metallic feature surface. Here are the finish families we install.
Decorative Flake / Chip
Blended color flake broadcast into the system for a textured, consistent look — our most popular residential finish and the basis of SS-HF1™.
Solid-Color Resinous
A clean, uniform color for a simple, understated floor that reads as a finished surface rather than bare concrete.
Metallic Finishes
Reflective, dimensional metallic effects for spaces where the floor is meant to be a feature. Best suited to appropriate interior applications.
Polished / Stained Concrete
Where the existing slab supports it, polished or stained concrete offers a refined finish that works with the character of the property.
Our available flake color range gives you a lot of room to match a finish to the property. Keep in mind that screen-rendered colors can differ from physical samples, so final color selection should be confirmed with real samples before the work is scheduled.
Explore Systems & FinishesEpoxy, polyaspartic & polyurea
Epoxy, polyaspartic, and polyurea are names you'll run into while researching floor coatings — but they're part of the flooring-system conversation, not simply competing product labels. We select and combine these materials around the substrate, the environment, the intended use, the traffic, the maintenance needs, and the finish you want. The right answer for your floor comes from the space, not from a single material.
Flooring for local businesses
Alongside the residential work, Avalon and Stone Harbor have retail shops, restaurants, service businesses, and hospitality spaces that need floors balancing appearance, steady seasonal traffic, cleaning, and intended use.
A customer-facing space has different priorities than a back-of-house area, and we match the system to how each room actually works day to day rather than installing the same floor everywhere.

The system is chosen around the floor
The right system depends on the existing concrete, the environment, the intended use, maintenance expectations, and the appearance you're after. Here are the options we install and where each tends to fit.
Epoxy Systems
Versatile resinous base systems installed within a fully prepared build.
Epoxy Floor CoatingsPolyaspartic / Polyurea
Fast-return resins used as base or topcoat layers depending on the project.
Polyaspartic & PolyureaSS-HF1™ Flake System
Our signature high-performance decorative flake build — a complete layered system.

Neighboring communities with their own character — and their own mix of flooring needs.
Avalon
A mix of primary residences, second and seasonal homes, and the garages, storage, and utility spaces that come with them — plus a share of local retail and service businesses. Projects here tend to center on residential floors owners want to look finished and clean, with appropriate commercial work alongside.
Stone Harbor
Largely residential in character, Stone Harbor leans toward homes and second homes where owners want garages, storage rooms, and other concrete areas to feel like an intentional part of the property. Local businesses along the way round out the work, with the same focus on appearance, cleaning, and everyday use.
