Hot tire pickup is the #1 cause of garage coating failure in Huntsville. After a 30-minute drive in Alabama summer heat, your tires sit at 180°F+ — and most water-based and DIY epoxies plasticize at that temperature, lifting clean off when you back out.

Common Causes
1. Water-based epoxy (most big-box kits) 2. Single-coat thin-mil installs (under 8 mil dry film thickness) 3. Slab not properly profiled before coating 4. No aliphatic topcoat — only an aromatic epoxy that yellows and softens
Why It Matters
1. Tire-shaped patches lift every parking cycle 2. Repair becomes total replacement once damage spreads 3. Failed warranty claims from contractors who used the wrong chemistry
Our Professional Solution
100%-solids epoxy basecoat at 12+ mil dry film — engineered for hot-tire contact and rated to 200°F+.
Aliphatic polyaspartic topcoat (two coats) — same chemistry used on bridge decks and aircraft hangars.
Diamond-ground prep ensures the coating bonds mechanically and chemically to bare concrete.
Why Professional Coating Beats Every Alternative
Once a coating is properly rated and properly bonded, hot tire pickup is impossible. Our 15-year warranty explicitly covers it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you fix this in my Huntsville home or shop?+
Yes. We diagnose every floor on-site, document the failure mode, and provide a written itemized estimate before any work begins.
How long will the repair last?+
Our hybrid epoxy + polyaspartic systems carry a 15-year written warranty. With proper diamond-ground prep and the right chemistry, expected lifespan is 15 to 20+ years.
Will I need to replace the entire slab?+
Almost never. We restore 95% of damaged slabs we evaluate. Replacement is only required for severe structural failure.
How fast can you start?+
Most repairs are scheduled within 1 to 3 weeks. Emergency commercial work can be faster.
