Nashville, TN (PRUnderground) December 16th, 2025
In Middle Tennessee, garage floors contend with humidity, rain, temperature swings, and constant vapor movement through the slab. Because moisture is the leading cause of coating failure nationwide, the warranty behind your garage floor coating matters just as much as the system itself. Garage Floor Coating of Nashville urges homeowners to ask these five questions before committing to any installer.
- “Does your warranty cover all moisture-related issues—yes or no?”
Most companies say no. Their warranties look impressive on the surface but hide moisture exclusions behind confusing thresholds like 3 lbs or 6 lbs MVER, or Tramex readings homeowners never see. When a coating fails, high vapor pressure gives the installer an easy excuse to void the warranty.
We include a moisture-mitigating vapor barrier primer on every garage floor epoxy installation, with no moisture exceptions in our warranties.
- “Do you apply that moisture primer on every job, or only when you ‘find’ a problem?”
A common industry tactic is the install-day moisture discovery: after grinding, the installer suddenly claims the slab needs a special primer and charges extra.
But in Nashville’s humid climate, moisture is the norm.
Our systems include moisture mitigation automatically, with no surprise fees and no upsells wrapped in technical language.
- “Does your warranty exclude tire staining?”
Plasticizer migration (permanent tire staining) is extremely common in the South, especially during hot summers. Many 1-day systems, thin epoxies, and lower-grade polyaspartics are prone to staining, which is why most warranties quietly exclude it.
Our multi-layer systems use 100% solids materials, a full-broadcast flake layer, and two polyaspartic clear coats that resist tire staining—even in Tennessee heat.
- “Is the warranty full coverage, including both labor and materials?”
Some companies offer “lifetime warranties” that don’t actually cover the cost to fix the floor. If labor is excluded, the homeowner ends up paying most of the repair cost out of pocket.
Our team provides true full-coverage warranties with no loopholes.
