Concrete floor work for Gas City homes
Kokomo Anchor Epoxy Flooring coats and finishes concrete floors in Gas City, IN, as a flooring contractor from nearby Kokomo. Most calls here are for garage floors, basements and pool decks, and the slabs we meet are often older ones that have been patched or painted before.
What a floor job in Gas City involves
Building permits in Gas City are overseen by the city's Board of Public Works, and whether a floor job needs one depends on the work. I check with the city before we set a start date and handle the paperwork when a permit is needed, so if one is, the city's review comes before our first day on your slab. You can also check a contractor's license yourself, as the questions below explain.
Those older slabs shape most of our work here. Oil soaks into a garage floor over the years, a sealer or paint from a past owner keeps a new coating from bonding, and cracks that have moved need filling first. On most Gas City jobs the prep takes more of our time than the coating does, the same as it does on the floors we do in Elwood, and I'd rather spend that time than see a floor fail.
I started this business as a flooring contractor in Kokomo, IN in 2017, and the same things set the price here as there. Price turns on the floor's size, the prep it needs and the finish you pick, while the schedule turns on the permit check, the moisture test and the coating's weather needs. Your estimate explains the prep as well as the finish, so you can see where your money goes.

Floor services for Gas City properties
Gas City has plenty of garages, basements and small shops, so the work below runs from a single coated garage floor to a busy plant floor.
Epoxy Floor Coatings
Epoxy floor coatings suit the attached garages and basement rec rooms we see in Gas City, once the slab is ground and tested.
Commercial & Industrial Epoxy Floor Coatings
Shops, plants and storefronts here get commercial and industrial epoxy built for forklifts, carts and the cleaners that come with them.
Garage Floor Coatings
Most garage calls start with peeling store-bought paint or oil stains, which garage floor coatings cover after we grind it all off.
Polyaspartic Floor Coatings
If you want the garage back in use sooner, polyaspartic coatings cure faster than epoxy and hold their color in sunlight.
Metallic Epoxy Flooring
For a basement bar or a small showroom, metallic epoxy flooring gives a swirled, one-of-a-kind look over a well-prepared slab.
Urethane Cement Flooring
Food plants and wash-down rooms in Gas City do better with urethane cement flooring, which stands up to heat, hot water and chemicals.
Polished Concrete Flooring
When a slab is sound underneath, polished concrete grinds it to a shine with no coating left to peel later.
Stained Concrete Flooring
Stained concrete puts color into basement floors and covered patios without hiding the concrete's own character.
Terrazzo Flooring
Entryways and lobbies that take heavy foot traffic can carry terrazzo flooring, with stone chips set in a ground, polished binder.
Basement Flooring
Basement flooring starts with a moisture test, because water coming up through the slab lifts most basement coatings.
Concrete Grinding & Surface Preparation
Every Gas City floor we do begins with concrete grinding and surface preparation, which opens the concrete so the coating can grip.
Concrete Sealing
Driveways, walks and garage aprons around town hold up better against stains and water with concrete sealing.
Concrete Resurfacing & Overlays
Worn, pitted or patched slabs can take a fresh top layer through concrete resurfacing and overlays instead of a tear-out.
Self-Leveling Concrete & Overlays
Dips and uneven spots in older basement floors flatten out with self-leveling concrete before new flooring goes down.
Pool Deck Coatings & Resurfacing
Backyard pool decks that have faded or cracked get a fresh, textured surface with pool deck coatings and resurfacing.
Concrete Floor Stripping & Removal
Concrete floor stripping and removal takes off old paint, tile adhesive and failed coatings so the next floor bonds to clean concrete.

Questions about floors in Gas City
Here are answers to what Gas City homeowners usually want to know about permits, codes and floor coatings. If your floor raises a question that isn't here, call or send the form.
How do I get a building permit in Gas City?
Call the city's zoning and planning director, whom Gas City names as its building permit contact, at (765) 573-6328 or bkline@gascitygov.com. That page also links the building permit and the city's permit requirements. When you hire us, I check with the city before we start and handle the paperwork if a permit is needed.
How much does a residential building permit cost in Gas City?
Gas City charges $50 for a residential permit for a patio, deck or fence, an accessory building, an addition, a roof or a swimming pool, according to the city's permit fee schedule, and $25 to renew a permit that runs past its six-month limit. Floor coatings aren't named on that schedule, so it doesn't tell you whether your floor needs a permit, and I ask the city before we start.
Which building code applies to homes in Gas City, Indiana?
Homes in Gas City fall under the Indiana Residential Code, which is the International Residential Code with Indiana's own changes, and state law requires every local government to enforce it. It covers one- and two-family houses and their accessory buildings, though most of a floor coating job comes down to slab prep and the coating maker's instructions.
How do I check a contractor's license in Indiana?
Search the contractor's name on Indiana's free search and verify service, which lets anyone look up any professional license holder in the state. It updates each license's status in real time, so it shows you whether a license a contractor hands you is current.
How much does an epoxy garage floor cost in Gas City?
The price comes down mostly to the size of the floor and how much work the slab needs before it can be coated. Grinding off old paint or sealer, filling cracks and dealing with moisture all add to the cost, and a polyaspartic topcoat, a metallic finish or a full flake broadcast usually costs more than a plain epoxy system. I give you a figure after I've seen and tested the floor.
What causes an epoxy garage floor to peel?
Most peeling starts with the slab rather than the coating, when the concrete wasn't ground open, still held old sealer or oil, or had moisture coming up from below. That's why I test for moisture and we grind the floor before a coating goes on, and if a slab isn't ready, I'll say so.
