A 1970s City on the River

South Daytona was incorporated as a city in 1951 and sits on the Halifax River just south of Daytona Beach. Of its 5.05 square miles, 1.35 are water, about a quarter of the city. Epoxy flooring in South Daytona means working with low, wet ground and with a housing stock that came together mostly in a single decade.

One decade built most of it

ACS figures summarized by Point2Homes show 35.1% of South Daytona homes were built in the 1970s, and 18.2% more in the 1960s. The median year built is 1976. When so many homes share an era, their floors share problems too. Slabs from that period tend to have:

  • Cracks running out from the garage door or control joints
  • Worn or yellowed sealers that need to be ground off
  • Surface pitting where water has sat for years
  • Patches from plumbing repairs under the slab

We expect all of these going in, and our quotes spell out the repair work, so nothing on your final bill comes as a surprise.

Carports, patios and manufactured homes

About 13.9% of South Daytona's housing units are mobile or manufactured homes, a higher share than in most nearby cities. Those homes often come with a concrete carport pad, a patio or a screened porch rather than an enclosed garage. These are outdoor slabs in full Florida sun and rain. We coat them with our patio systems: a light color, a textured finish for grip and a UV-stable topcoat that will not yellow. A coated carport sheds oil drips and washes clean with a hose.

Water close to the surface

Wikipedia gives the city's average elevation as 6.5 feet. On a riverfront lot that low, moisture is the first thing we check. We run a slab test on every job. Where the readings are high we switch to a moisture-tolerant primer. Where water is pooling or seeping through cracks, we explain what needs fixing first and come back when the slab is ready.

Single-family garages

About 49.4% of homes are single-family detached houses, and owners occupy 64.1% of occupied homes. For those garages, a flake epoxy base with a polyaspartic topcoat is our usual starting point. It covers old stains, adds grip and handles the sun when the door is open. If you want a floor that looks finished enough for a home gym or hobby room, we can talk about metallic epoxy too.

Lanais and back patios

Many South Daytona homes have a back patio or screened lanai facing a yard, a canal or the river. These slabs dry slowly after rain and often grow mildew in shaded corners. We pressure clean and grind the surface, repair cracks, and lay down a textured coating in a light color. The sealed surface is easier to wash, and mildew has less to hold onto.

How a South Daytona job usually runs

1. We visit, measure, test the slab and look at every crack and stain. 2. You get a written price with the prep, each coat and the total. 3. On install day we grind, repair and apply the base coat, flake or color, and topcoat. 4. We leave written guidance on when you can walk on the floor, return items and park.

Most garages and patios take one to two days, depending on the system and the weather.

South Daytona Questions

Can you coat the carport pad at my manufactured home?

Yes. We treat a carport pad like any outdoor slab. It gets ground, repaired and coated with a textured, UV-stable system that grips in the rain and does not yellow in the sun.

My 1970s garage floor has a long crack. Is that a problem?

Most cracks in older slabs are from shrinkage or minor settling and can be filled before coating. If one side of the crack is higher than the other or it keeps growing, the slab may need repair first. We will tell you which kind you have.
