This means we have a lot of experience in designing and installing custom garage interiors, including our garage shelving Prosper, TX residents love.

    Yes, DFW Garage Design does use subcontractors for some specialized work. Most of the work is done by DFW Garage Design employees, but sometimes we need to bring in an expert, such as an electrician or plumber. For specialized projects like the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents prefer, we only work with subcontractors we’ve partnered with for many years and trust to provide high-quality work. Additionally, a DFW Garage Design employee will always be present on-site when a subcontractor is working.

  • Is DFW Garage Design insured?

    Yes, DFW Garage Design is insured. We carry a $3 million general liability policy, giving you peace of mind when working with us on projects with the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents recommend.

  • What is your warranty policy?

    DFW Garage Design offers the following warranties on their products, including the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents love:


    • Lifetime warranty on polyaspartic flooring system, shelves, overheads, and slatwall
    • 10-year warranty on wooden cabinets
    • 5-year warranty on slatwall accessories, motorized screens, and steel cabinets
  • What is the process of installing a polyaspartic garage floor?

    1. Preparation: The installers will arrive and unload their equipment. They will fill all cracks and divots in the concrete floor and grind it to create a smooth, porous surface. Any dirt or debris will be removed, and the dust created by the grinding process will be vacuumed up, ensuring a strong foundation for the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents count on.


    2. Base coat: The first coat of polyaspartic will be applied to the floor.


    3. Color coat: A second coat of polyaspartic will be applied, and color flakes or chips will be broadcast into the wet material.


    4. Topcoat: Once the polyaspartic has cured for about 2 hours, the installers will scrape off any excess chips and vacuum up the floor again. A clear coat of polyaspartic will then be applied to the floor. According to our experience, you will need to wait 24 hours before walking on the new floor or placing any items back in the garage.

  • How do I prepare my home before the garage flooring installation?

    Empty the garage completely. This means removing all vehicles, furniture, and other items to prepare for the installation of epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents swear by. According to Fortune Business Insights, the global epoxy coating market size was valued at $42.92 billion in 2024, highlighting its increasing popularity and demand for durable, high-quality finishes like the ones we offer. Do not wash the floors. The concrete needs to be completely dry for the polyaspartic to adhere properly. You should also leave plenty of space on the driveway for the installation team's truck and equipment. This will make it easier for them to access the garage and complete the installation process.

  • How long does it take to do the garage flooring installation?

    According to our experience, most polyaspartic garage floor installations, including the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents choose, can be completed in one day. However, several factors can affect the installation time, including:


    • Size of the garage: Larger garages will take longer to install.
    •  Weather: Colder weather can slow down the curing process, while hot weather can make it difficult for the installers to work safely.
    • Condition of the concrete: If the concrete floor is in poor condition, it may need to be repaired before the polyaspartic can be installed, which will add to the installation time.
    • Special requests: If you have any special requests for your floor, such as a logo or multiple colors, this will also add to the installation time.

    Your installation technician will provide a more accurate estimate of the installation time after inspecting your garage and discussing your specific needs.

  • What maintenance is required on my new floor?

    Polyaspartic garage floors, including the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents love, are very low maintenance and do not require any special cleaning products or treatments. To keep your polyaspartic garage floor looking its best, follow this basic maintenance routine from our experts:


    • Sweep or mop the floor regularly to remove dirt and debris.
    • Spot clean any spills or stains using a damp cloth with a mild detergent.
    • Hose down the floor and squeegee it dry once a year or as needed.

    Golf cart owners with lead-acid batteries should be particularly cautious not to overfill the batteries or allow acid to drip onto the floor. If acid does drip, wipe it up immediately. Extended exposure to acid can discolor the coating, which isn’t covered by the warranty but can be repaired.

  • Do you coat the sides of the garage where the concrete goes up?

    Yes, DFW Garage Design will coat the side of the garage where the concrete goes up, also known as the stem wall. This is included in their standard garage floor coating installation and ensures a seamless, durable finish, resulting in the epoxy flooring Prosper, TX residents recommend for both style and functionality.

  • Will the floor be slippery?

    Yes, polyaspartic garage floors can be slippery when wet, especially if there is no anti-slip agent added to the top coat. This is because polyaspartic is a smooth, glossy material.


    If you are concerned about slipping, ask DFW Garage Design to add an anti-slip agent to the top coat. This will add texture to the floor and make it less slippery when wet. However, it is important to note that this will also make the floor more difficult to clean.


    Even with an anti-slip agent, a polyaspartic garage floor will still be easier to clean than bare concrete. This is because polyaspartic is a non-porous material so it does not absorb dirt and stains.

  • What is the weight capacity of overhead storage?

    600 pounds evenly distributed and the standard shelves have a capacity of 250 pounds per shelf.

  • Are the accessories interchangeable with all slatwall?

    No, the most common size is 3” slats but different manufacturers create different sizes. 


    DFW Garage Design uses slatwall with 3” slats to allow for the largest selection of accessories.

  • What is the weight capacity of slatwall?

    150 pounds per linear foot

  • Can I buy accessories from DFW Garage Design?

    Yes, we keep some of the accessories in stock.
