We're Concord Precision Epoxy Flooring, based in Concord, and we coat, polish and resurface concrete floors in Martinez garages, basements, patios and shops. We start with the concrete underneath, because that's where most failed floors went wrong.

A lot of the Martinez garages I walk into sit on older concrete, with years of oil and tire marks on it and sometimes a coat of paint or sealer someone rolled on long ago. That old film is usually the problem, because a new coating can only grip as well as whatever it's sitting on.
We also hear from Martinez homeowners turning a garage into a room or a small unit, and from shops and work spaces around town that need a floor that holds up to real use. Those jobs start the same way, with a good look at the slab before anyone picks a color.
We reply to every call and message within one business day, and there's no pressure to book. I come out to your place in Martinez myself, look at the floor, check what's on it and how it's holding up, and then give you a written estimate that explains why I picked the system I did.
(925) 536-0504In Martinez we mostly coat and repair garage floors, but we also polish and stain concrete, resurface worn patios and pool decks, and put down tougher systems for shops and commercial spaces. Every one of those jobs starts with concrete grinding and surface preparation, because grinding opens up the concrete so the new finish bonds to it instead of sitting on old dirt and sealer.
Building permits for work inside Martinez city limits come from the city's Building Department, and new applications now go through the city's online portal. Whether your floor job needs one is the department's call, so I check with them before we schedule, and if it does, we handle the application and plan the work around it, which can move the start date back. You can check two things on any contractor here, a California contractor license and the business license the city requires of contractors, and we're licensed and insured. Beyond that, the price and the schedule mostly follow the slab, meaning how big the floor is, how much old coating has to come off, how many cracks need filling and which system you choose, and your written estimate spells each of those out.
From our base in Concord, Martinez is a short drive west on Highway 4, so getting the grinder and the crew over here is easy. We do the same slab-first work in other cities around Concord, from Walnut Creek down to Alamo, and if your city isn't on our list, just ask.
I come out to every Martinez job myself, look at the concrete and write the estimate. Once the work starts I'm on site with our crew, so the person who sized up your slab is the same one making sure it gets prepared the way I said it would.
Most failed floors I've looked at went wrong underneath, not in the coating. So we check for old sealers, oil, cracks and moisture before choosing a system, and if a smaller fix like sealing or crack repair will do the job, I'll tell you that instead.
We're licensed and insured, and your estimate explains why we picked the system we did, so you can compare it with anyone else's. Your satisfaction, guaranteed. To get started, call (925) 536-0504 or send the form on this page.
Start with the slab, not the color. I'll look at what's on your floor and how it's holding up, then we pick a system that fits how you use the space, like a tough epoxy or polyaspartic coat for a garage you park in, or a metallic finish for one you're turning into a gym or workshop. Once that's settled, we put a date on the calendar.
The cost comes down mostly to how much work the slab needs before anything goes on it, along with the size of the floor and the system you choose. A clean, sound slab costs less to prepare than one with old paint to strip, oil soaked in or cracks to fill, and a multi-coat metallic finish costs more than a basic coating. I'll give you a written figure after I see the floor, and the estimate is free.
Usually it's the concrete under the coating, not the coating itself. Old sealers, paint and oil keep a new coat from gripping, and moisture coming up through the slab can push it loose from below. That's why we grind the floor down to clean concrete and check how it's behaving before we choose a system.
A contractor needs a state license when the project needs a building permit, uses employees, or totals $1,000 or more in labor and materials. The exemption under $1,000 only covers small jobs with no permit and no employees, and a bigger project can't be split into smaller contracts to stay under it. You can look up any contractor with the state licensing board before you hire.
Not automatically, according to the city's guidance on converting a garage into a JADU, a junior accessory dwelling unit, which is a small living unit inside the home. Flood rules only come in when the work counts as a substantial improvement, which is measured by the construction cost against the market value of the building. For a detached garage only the garage's value counts, while an attached garage counts the whole house, so a conversion in an attached garage has more room before it gets there.
