Automotive Showrooms and Garages
Automotive Showroom and Service Garage Flooring
Pacific Coast Contracting frequently installs seamless epoxy flooring in automotive showrooms and repair garages, with coatings that resist staining from automotive fluids, oil and gas.
What automotive floors need to do
A specialized epoxy floor coating offers significant advantages over polished concrete in automotive spaces, including stain resistance and chemical resistance to automotive fluid, oil and gas. A light-colored epoxy reflects light better, improving visibility under vehicles in repair bays. The coating needs to be durable, resist tire traffic, and provide a non-slip surface that is easy to clean and resists water.

Common Questions
Automotive Flooring FAQ
What is the best floor for an automotive service garage?
Service garages need a floor that resists oil, gas and automotive fluids, handles tire traffic and cleans easily. A seamless epoxy coating is a common choice, and light colors improve visibility under vehicles. Pacific Coast Contracting installs epoxy floors in repair garages and showrooms.
Will an epoxy showroom floor yellow in sunlight?
Some epoxy coatings can amber or change color with UV exposure from large showroom windows. A UV-stable urethane topcoat is often used to help keep the color consistent. Pacific Coast Contracting considers daylight exposure when recommending a showroom system.
Is epoxy better than polished concrete for a car dealership?
For service bays, epoxy usually performs better because it resists staining from oil, gas and automotive fluids. For showroom areas, either can work depending on the look and maintenance you want. Pacific Coast Contracting installs both and can recommend a mix for each area.
