Garage Floor Coatings in Waukee, IA
We’re not “serving” Waukee from somewhere else. We’re based here — and there’s a finished job in town to show for it.
Local means something specific
Most of the companies that show up when you search for a Waukee floor coating are driving in from somewhere else in the metro, or they’re a national brand with a franchise office.
Sterling is headquartered in Waukee. That’s not a marketing line — it changes practical things: how fast we can get to you for an estimate, how easy it is to swing back if you have a question after the job, and whether we already know the neighborhood your house is in.
What Waukee garages are like
Waukee has grown fast, and most of the housing stock reflects that. For floor coatings that works in your favor:
- Newer floors are usually cleaner. Less oil contamination in the concrete, fewer previous repairs, fewer old coatings to strip. That means less prep, which means a lower price.
- Newer builds usually have a vapor barrier underneath. That reduces the moisture risk — though we still test, because “usually” isn’t a plan.
- Three-car garages are common here. Bigger floors, and worth knowing that the price per square foot improves as the floor gets larger.
- Older homes closer to downtown are a different job — more prep, more likely to need crack and spall work.

Driveway replaced, garage coated — same property
Both halves of what we do, on one job, here in town.
The old driveway came out, the base was rebuilt and reinforced, and new concrete was poured. Inside, the garage floor was diamond ground, then finished with an epoxy base, a flake broadcast, and a polyaspartic clear coat. Two days for the garage.
