Your floors won’t just look better—they’ll work harder. No more concrete dust tracking through your space. No more oil stains that won’t come out. No more cracking from freeze-thaw cycles.
Instead, you get a surface that cleans with soap and water. A floor that handles everything from car traffic to chemical spills without showing wear. Protection that lasts decades, not years.
The difference isn’t just visual. It’s functional. Your maintenance time drops. Your professional image improves. Your investment pays for itself through durability alone.
We’ve been perfecting epoxy applications in Michigan for over a decade. Legends Construction LLC brings that experience to every Bingham Farms project, whether it’s a residential garage or a commercial warehouse.
Our approach is straightforward: proper surface prep, professional-grade materials, and application techniques that ensure your coating bonds correctly the first time. We’re not the cheapest option—and that’s intentional.
Bingham Farms properties face unique challenges. The freeze-thaw cycles. The salt exposure. The humidity swings. We’ve seen what works here and what fails, and we apply that knowledge to every square foot we coat.
First, we evaluate your concrete. Not all surfaces are ready for epoxy, and we’ll tell you exactly what yours needs. This includes checking for moisture issues, existing coatings, and structural problems that could affect adhesion.
Next comes surface preparation—the step that separates professional results from DIY failures. We diamond grind or shot blast your concrete to create the proper profile. This isn’t optional. Without it, even the best epoxy will eventually fail.
Then we apply our coating system. Professional-grade epoxy with 100% solids content, not the water-diluted products you’ll find at big box stores. The chemical reaction creates a bond stronger than the concrete itself. We finish with protective topcoats that resist chemicals, abrasion, and UV damage.

Every epoxy painter project in Bingham Farms, MI includes comprehensive surface preparation, professional-grade materials, and application techniques designed for Michigan’s climate. We handle concrete repair, crack filling, and moisture mitigation before any coating touches your floor.
Your coating system includes primer application for maximum adhesion, base coat application with your chosen color and texture options, and protective topcoat application for chemical and abrasion resistance. We also provide detailed care instructions and warranty information.
Bingham Farms businesses often need specialized solutions—non-slip additives for safety areas, chemical-resistant formulations for manufacturing spaces, or decorative options for retail environments. We customize every application to match your specific requirements and local building codes.
Professional epoxy coatings properly applied to prepared concrete can last 15-20 years or more in Michigan conditions. The key factors are surface preparation quality and coating thickness.
DIY kits typically fail within 2-3 years because they’re water-diluted and applied over inadequately prepared surfaces. Our 100% solids epoxy creates a chemical bond with properly profiled concrete that withstands freeze-thaw cycles, salt exposure, and temperature swings.
Regular maintenance extends life even further. Simple cleaning with soap and water, prompt spill cleanup, and avoiding abrasive cleaning tools will keep your coating looking and performing like new for decades.
The biggest difference is surface preparation. DIY instructions typically recommend acid etching, which creates insufficient surface profile for proper adhesion. We use diamond grinding or shot blasting to achieve the CSP-3 or CSP-4 profile that epoxy needs to bond permanently.
Material quality is the second major difference. Most DIY kits contain 50% or more water, leaving a thin coating when dry. Our professional coatings are 100% solids, creating a thick, durable surface that can handle real-world conditions.
Application technique matters too. Epoxy has a limited working time once mixed, and temperature and humidity affect curing. We have the experience and equipment to apply coatings correctly regardless of conditions, ensuring proper cure and maximum performance.
Sometimes, but it depends on what’s already there and how well it’s bonded. Existing coatings need to be either completely removed or properly prepared to accept new epoxy.
We test existing coatings for adhesion before recommending a course of action. Loose or failing coatings must be removed completely—there’s no shortcut here. Well-bonded coatings might be scuff-sanded and primed, but only after thorough evaluation.
The safest approach is often complete removal down to bare concrete, followed by proper surface preparation. This ensures your new epoxy coating has the best possible foundation and will perform as expected for years to come.
You can walk on most epoxy coatings within 12-24 hours, but full cure takes 72 hours. We recommend waiting the full cure time before parking vehicles or placing heavy equipment on the surface.
Temperature and humidity affect cure times. Cold weather slows curing, while hot weather can accelerate it. We monitor conditions and adjust our timeline accordingly, giving you accurate expectations for your specific project.
The wait is worth it. Rushing back to full use before complete cure can damage the coating surface or create permanent marks. We provide detailed instructions for the cure period and are available to answer questions if anything seems unusual during the process.
Epoxy floors are remarkably low-maintenance compared to bare concrete or other flooring options. Regular sweeping or dust mopping removes debris that could scratch the surface over time.
For deeper cleaning, use a soft mop with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrub pads that can dull the finish. Most spills, including oil and chemicals, clean up easily if addressed promptly.
The biggest maintenance mistake is ignoring small chips or scratches. While epoxy is extremely durable, any coating can be damaged by heavy impacts or sharp objects. Small repairs are quick and inexpensive when caught early, but can become major problems if ignored.
Yes, we warranty both materials and workmanship on every epoxy project. Warranty terms depend on the specific coating system and application, but typically range from 5-15 years for properly maintained surfaces.
Our warranty covers coating failure due to improper application or material defects. It doesn’t cover damage from impacts, chemical spills left untreated, or maintenance neglect. We provide detailed care instructions to help you maintain warranty coverage.
We stand behind our work because we use proven materials and proper application techniques. Most coating failures happen within the first year due to poor surface prep or application errors. Our experience and attention to detail minimize these risks, giving you confidence in your investment.
