Garages at the Edge of the Mountains
Epoxy flooring in Cottonwood Heights faces more snow and water than most valley towns. The city sits at 4,820 feet, where Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons open into the valley, and it averages 25.92 inches of precipitation a year based on 1991 to 2020 normals. That is well above the roughly 15 inches seen on the valley floor. A lot of that moisture ends up dripping off cars and gear onto garage floors.
Snowmelt, slush and salt
Cars coming down from canyon roads carry ice, slush and road treatment into the garage. UDOT notes that crews in high-ice areas such as the Cottonwoods spray potassium acetate as a deicer, alongside salt elsewhere. When that melts on bare concrete, it soaks in. A sealed coating keeps it on the surface. Many owners add a slight slope or a trench drain near the door, and we can coat right up to it.
The gear garage
In a canyon-mouth town, the garage often holds skis, snowboards, bikes and climbing gear. Ski boots and bike cleats are hard on floors. Full flake under a polyaspartic topcoat resists scuffs and is easy to wipe clean. Lighter colors also help when you are hunting for a dropped binding screw.
Homes from the 1970s
In Census survey data, the 1970s account for about 32.1% of local housing and the 1960s for another 15.2%. Many of these garages have original slabs with years of wear. We grind away old stains and sealers, patch cracks and take a moisture reading, all ahead of the quote.
Older residents and safe footing
The 2020 census counted about 18.4% of Cottonwood Heights residents at age 65 or older. Wet, snowy floors can be slick. We mix grit into the topcoat or broadcast flake more heavily to give better traction, especially near entry doors.
Offices and corporate spaces
Instructure, Extra Space Storage, Breeze Airways and JetBlue all have corporate offices in the city. Most commercial development is on the lower ground north of the ridge. Office break rooms, storage areas and fitness rooms are good fits for seamless, easy-clean coatings.

Cottonwood Heights Questions
Will snowmelt from my car damage a coated floor?
No. A sealed coating keeps meltwater and deicers sitting on top, ready to be squeegeed out. Bare concrete soaks them in.
Can a garage floor be made less slippery when wet?
Yes. Grit mixed into the topcoat, or a heavier flake broadcast, improves traction near doors and entry steps.
Do ski boots scratch epoxy floors?
Hard boots can scuff any surface. A polyaspartic topcoat over full flake hides minor scuffs and holds up well.
Can you coat around a trench drain?
Yes. We coat up to the drain edge and seal the transition so water flows into it cleanly.
