Concrete Floor Coatings in Kansas City
Update your garage, basement, patio or commercial concrete floor with a coating suited to the space. Our family-run Kansas City team assesses the slab, explains preparation and repairs, and helps you compare finishes before choosing a system.
Lifetime warranty on residential chip floors
Fortress Floors KC provides a lifetime warranty on residential polyurea/polyaspartic chip floor installations. Ask us for the written warranty terms when reviewing your estimate, including coverage, conditions and exclusions.
This lifetime warranty applies to the residential polyurea/polyaspartic chip system. For commercial projects or other flooring systems, confirm the applicable warranty terms for your project.
Concrete coatings for the way you use the space
Bare concrete, a peeling old coating and a basement being remodeled need different assessments. We start with the existing slab and intended use, then explain preparation, repairs and suitable coating options.
Fortress Floors KC is a family-run flooring company based in Lenexa, serving the Kansas City metro. Our work includes residential and commercial concrete floor coatings.
Garage floor coatings
Plan for vehicle traffic, road salt, spills and storage. Existing paint, peeling epoxy, cracks and pitting affect the preparation required.
Basement and interior floors
Living areas, workshops and utility rooms have different priorities. Discuss cleaning, texture, access and any previous leaks or moisture concerns.
Patio and porch coatings
Sun, rain, drainage and surface condition matter outdoors. Plan the finish texture, steps and exposed edges alongside suitable installation weather.
Commercial concrete flooring
Traffic, equipment, cleaning products and available downtime help define the work. Share performance requirements before choosing the flooring system.
Full-chip, epoxy and polyaspartic coating options
Our recommended full-chip system combines a polyurea basecoat, decorative chips and a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat. Epoxy options are also available when suited to the project.
Those names describe components of a system. Preparation, coating compatibility, application conditions and the intended use matter alongside the product chemistry.
Appearance and texture
Decorative chips create a blended pattern. Metallic epoxy offers a different, flowing appearance. Compare samples, sheen and texture before selecting a finish.
Added texture can improve grip but may take more effort to clean. No coating should be treated as slip-proof when wet.
What the coating will cover
Define the main floor, steps, wall bases and edges. Discuss joints, drains and termination points before installation.
Read the written warranty for the proposed system, including coverage and exclusions related to moisture and slab movement.
Our epoxy, polyurea and polyaspartic comparison explains the choices in more detail.
Can cracked, pitted or previously coated concrete be coated?
Often, but the existing surface determines the work. We inspect damaged areas, old coatings, contamination and moisture concerns before recommending the preparation.
- Peeling paint or epoxy: loose or incompatible material needs removal or other appropriate preparation.
- Cracks and pitting: identify the repairs included and how moving cracks or joints will be treated.
- Moisture: findings may change the system or require addressing the source before coating.
- Slab movement and drainage: a surface coating does not correct structural movement, poor drainage or an active leak.
Compare the complete coating project
A square-foot price needs a defined scope. The measured area, removal, repairs, moisture treatment, coating layers and included details determine the total.
Confirm separate return times for walking, furniture, storage and vehicles. Installation completion and full cure are different milestones.

Questions before choosing a concrete finish
Is a coating the same as polished or stained concrete?
No. A coating adds a compatible finish system over prepared concrete. Polishing mechanically refines the concrete, while stains change its appearance. Tell us the result you want so we can discuss whether a coating is the right approach.
Can a coating stop water coming into a basement?
A decorative coating is not a substitute for correcting leaks or drainage problems. Share previous water issues before selecting the floor.
How do I care for a coated concrete floor?
Remove loose grit, clean spills promptly and follow the installed system’s cleaning instructions. Protect the surface when moving equipment or furniture, and ask which cleaners are suitable.

Concrete coating reviews
Coated floors built for how the space is used
Garages, heavily trafficked areas, and commercial spaces each call for the right preparation and coating system.
“From the initial meeting through the installation and follow up, Kevin made the process seamless. The floor is a heavily trafficked area, and keeping it clean is easier than expected.”
