Garage Epoxy Flooring in Akron, OH
Akron homeowners from Fairlawn to Kenmore, Merriman Hills to Chapel Hill, have discovered what Summit County's most satisfied customers already know: Canton Epoxy delivers the highest-quality epoxy flooring in Northeast Ohio at prices that make sense. Just 20 miles from our Canton shop, we serve the entire Akron metro area with the same workmanship-warranted, professionally installed systems that have earned us a 5-star reputation across the region. Whether you're renovating a historic Merriman Hills craftsman or upgrading the garage of a new Fairlawn build, we bring professional-grade results to every Summit County project.
Akron's varied housing stock — from Kenmore's working-class ranches to Fairlawn's upscale colonials — means we see every kind of concrete substrate, every kind of moisture challenge, and every kind of homeowner expectation. Our process is consistent regardless of the home: diamond-grind the surface to a CSP 2–3 profile, test for moisture vapor emission, fill cracks and imperfections, apply 100% solids epoxy base coat, broadcast a full flake of decorative vinyl chips, and seal with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat. The result is a 30–40 mil thick floor that handles hot tire contact, oil spills, road salt, and everything Akron winters can throw at it.
From the University of Akron area to Chapel Hill to Cuyahoga Valley National Park's gateway neighborhoods, Canton Epoxy is Summit County's go-to choice for epoxy floors. Call 330.330.9900 today for a free, no-obligation Akron estimate.

Key Features
Oil & Chemical Resistant
100% solids epoxy forms an impermeable barrier against motor oil, gasoline, antifreeze, brake fluid, and household cleaning chemicals — wipe up spills without staining.
Hot Tire Resistant
Our polyaspartic topcoat is specifically formulated to resist hot tire pickup — the primary failure mode of water-based and low-grade epoxy kits that peel away in strips when your hot tires cool on the surface.
Salt & Moisture Resistant
Road salt and snowmelt tracked in from Stark County's winters can't penetrate our sealed, non-porous surface. The coating protects the concrete underneath from spalling and long-term salt damage.
Diamond-Ground Adhesion
We grind every floor to a CSP 2–3 surface profile using professional diamond grinding equipment, opening the concrete pores so the epoxy bonds chemically to the slab rather than simply sitting on top of it.
Moisture-Tested Installation
Every installation includes MVER and relative humidity testing before any product is applied. If moisture levels exceed safe thresholds, we address it — because skipping this step is why other coatings fail.
Anti-UV Polyaspartic Topcoat
Our UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat won't yellow or fade from sunlight exposure through garage windows or doors. It cures to a hard, high-gloss finish within hours, not days.
Lifetime Workmanship Warranty
Every garage floor we install in Canton, Massillon, Alliance, Akron, and the greater Stark County area is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty — we stand behind our prep work, our products, and our labor.

How It Works in Akron
Our Installation Process
The same professional process we use on every Summit County project — no shortcuts.
Free On-Site Estimate
We visit your Canton-area home to measure the floor, assess surface condition, identify any cracks or moisture concerns, and walk you through system options and pricing. No pressure, no obligation.
Diamond Grinding & Surface Prep
On installation day, we grind the entire floor to a CSP 2–3 surface profile using professional diamond grinding equipment. This opens the concrete pores for maximum chemical adhesion and removes any existing sealers or contaminants.
Moisture & Crack Testing
We perform MVER and relative humidity testing to confirm moisture vapor levels are within acceptable thresholds. Cracks, spalls, and control joints are filled and leveled with appropriate patching materials.
100% Solids Epoxy Base Coat
We apply a full-coverage 100% solids epoxy base coat in your chosen color. At this stage, decorative vinyl color chips are broadcast at full saturation across the wet base coat for a uniform, seamless appearance.
Chip Scrape & Seal
Once the base coat cures, we scrape any standing chips to create a smooth, even surface, then apply a clear epoxy seal coat to lock the chips in place and create the foundation for the topcoat.
UV-Stable Polyaspartic Topcoat
The final step is our UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat, applied in the desired sheen level (satin or high-gloss). Anti-slip aggregate is broadcast into the topcoat. The floor is walk-ready within hours and drive-ready the next morning.
