Epoxy Flooring in Lakeside, FL

Epoxy Flooring in Lakeside tends to mean a busy suburban garage not far from the water. Lakeside sits in northeastern Clay County, with Doctors Lake, an inlet of the St. Johns River, to its southeast, according to Wikipedia. About 14% of the community's total area is water, and many homes are close enough to the lake that damp air is part of daily life.

Moisture comes first

Slabs near water often carry more moisture than those on higher ground. When a coating bubbles or peels, damp rising from below is a frequent culprit. Each slab is tested at the estimate, and a primer that handles damp concrete goes on whenever the numbers point that way.

Irma and Clay County

During Hurricane Irma in 2017, Clay County saw extensive flooding along the St. Johns River and Black Creek, with about 350 people rescued and 275 homes destroyed. If your garage has taken on water, we look for damage and residue before quoting.

A large, settled community

Lakeside had 31,275 residents and 12,633 housing units in 2020, and about 69% of its households were families. Garages here hold cars, bikes, tools and storage. Flake sealed under a hard-wearing clear coat takes daily use and wipes up quickly.

A place with a research history

The Yerkes primate research station operated on a 188-acre site about a mile west of Orange Park from 1930 until it moved to Atlanta in 1965. Developer Marvin Wilhite bought the land in 1966, and much of the area was developed afterward. Slabs from that era and later may have old sealers or stains that need grinding.

Choosing a finish

For busy suburban garages, a multi-tone flake blend hides dust and tire marks. If you use the garage as a workshop, a lighter color brightens the space.

Older homes from the post-1966 build-out

Much of the land around the former research site was developed after Marvin Wilhite bought it in 1966, so a good share of Lakeside garages are now forty or fifty years old. Concrete that age often has fine surface cracks and worn areas near the door where tires turn. We grind those areas flat and fill cracks so the lines stay hidden under the new floor.
