EPOXY FLOORS
IN MINNETONKA, MN
Minnetonka spans a wide age range of slabs — 50s and 60s detached garages around the lake all the way up to newer attached construction east of 169. Older detached garages here almost always have a peeling paint coating or pitted surface that needs full mechanical removal before anything new goes down.

WHAT WE SEE
ON MINNETONKA SLABS
The older lakeside neighborhoods around Gray's Bay, Big Willow, and the Boulevard run on slabs from the 1950s and 60s. A lot of those are detached single- and double-stall garages with original concrete — pitted, sometimes spalled at the apron, and almost always carrying an old painted or coated surface that needs to come off mechanically before anything new will bond. The newer construction east of 169 has tighter, cleaner slabs, but you still see moisture vapor issues here from the mature tree cover and slow drying.
On any slab where there's a prior coating, we plan on full removal as part of the prep. A new coating laid over a failing one doesn't fix the problem — it just buys you a year before both layers come up together.
