Epoxy Flooring in Kenneth City, FL

Almost every epoxy flooring job in Kenneth City lands on concrete from the same era. Census estimates on Point2Homes show 32.4% of homes here were built in the 1950s and 35.6% in the 1960s, with a median build year of 1964. Developer Sidney Colen founded the town in 1957 and named it after his son, and its population grew about 83% during the 1960s. The slabs from that boom are now about sixty years old.

What sixty years does to a garage floor

Concrete from the 1950s and 1960s may have been poured without a vapor barrier underneath, and if so, moisture can move up more freely than in newer homes. Add years of oil, paint and patching and you get a floor that needs real preparation:

• Moisture readings in several spots before choosing a primer.
• Grinding to remove old paint and expose sound concrete.
• Crack and spall repair, especially near the door.
• A check for low areas where water collects.

Carports and converted garages

Many ranch houses of this period had carports, and some garages were later closed in as extra rooms. A carport slab sits open to rain and sun, so it calls for a UV-stable, textured topcoat. A garage converted to a den or office may suit a smoother decorative finish, as long as the slab tests dry enough.
