How to hire without getting burned.

We check contractors against the state license registry where the trade is licensed, and publish what you should verify yourself where it is not, like Florida. The methodology is public and nobody can pay their way onto a list. Ranked lists roll out market by market as each one is verified.

Checked against the state registry

We publish the full license number and verified date, and we name the companies we excluded and why. Where a state does not license the trade, we publish what to verify instead.

Our Story

Built by the guy who used to give the quotes.

I spent most of my career in hardwood, twenty years of it running my own floor business in New York. Epoxy found me: my own customers and other contractors kept asking about it for the spaces wood could never solve. In 2019 I started an epoxy business here, installed the floors myself, and have since stopped. Today I advise rather than take the work, which is the whole point. I have nothing left to sell you.

EpoxyTimes exists because most of them had no way to know. Pricing is opaque, every coating gets pitched as the best one, and review sites rank whoever pays.

So we publish the real numbers, explain every coating without a sales agenda, and only list installers whose licenses actually check out. The goal is simple: you make the call with the same information the pros have.

Questions homeowners actually ask

How much does epoxy flooring cost?

Most professionally installed floors run $4 to $14 per square foot depending on the space, coating system, and how much prep the concrete needs. A typical 2-car garage lands between $2,880 and $3,840 installed. See the cost data

Epoxy or polyaspartic, which should I pick?

Epoxy is the budget pick and cures in 3 to 5 days. Polyaspartic costs more but cures in one day, will not yellow in sunlight, and typically lasts 15+ years. Compare them side by side

How long does an epoxy floor last?

A properly prepped residential floor lasts 5 to 10 years in a garage and longer indoors. Surface prep quality matters more than the product on the label. Read the lifespan guide

Can I DIY my garage floor?

Yes, quality kits run $200 to $600 and hold up well if you grind and moisture-test the slab first. Skipping prep is why most DIY floors peel within a year. See the kits that last

How do you verify installers?

Every listed company is checked against state license boards. Lapsed or suspended licenses are excluded and the methodology is public. Nobody can pay their way onto a list. How we verify
