🎨 METALLIC & FLAKE FLOORS
Metallic & Flake Floors in Broomfield, CO
There's a significant gap between a functional garage floor coating and one that actually makes you proud of the space — and metallic epoxy and decorative flake systems are what fills that gap. Concrete Doctor installs high-end decorative floor systems for Broomfield homeowners and businesses who want a floor that performs under Colorado conditions and looks genuinely impressive doing it. These are not commodity products; they're Westcoat-based systems installed by crews who understand both the materials and the substrate preparation that makes them last.
Our Metallic & Flake Floors Approach
Our metallic epoxy systems use two-component epoxy with metallic pigment mixed or swirled at the application stage to create flowing, three-dimensional patterns that look completely different at every angle. The depth of finish comes from the way metallic particles orient in the wet epoxy base coat as it moves during application. No two metallic epoxy floors look identical — each has its own movement pattern and visual character. A UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat protects the finish from Colorado's high-altitude solar radiation, which would degrade a standard epoxy topcoat and turn a beautiful metallic floor to a chalky, yellowed surface within a season. Decorative flake broadcast systems use colored vinyl or EPDM chips broadcast into the wet base coat at various coverage levels — from a light scatter that shows the base color through the chips to a full broadcast that completely covers the base with a dense, uniform chip texture. Full flake systems are extremely durable and practical — the textured surface provides grip, and chips make scuffs and surface wear nearly invisible. We offer both full-flake and blended flake patterns in a wide range of color combinations. During the estimate visit, we bring physical sample boards so you can see the actual finish options in your specific light conditions.
Full Flake Systems for the Practical Broomfield Homeowner
Metallic epoxy floors are visually dramatic and an excellent choice for showroom-style garages and commercial spaces. For homeowners who want a substantial upgrade over bare concrete without the design maintenance concerns of a high-gloss metallic, full-coverage flake broadcast systems are the practical choice. A full flake floor broadcasts colored chips at 100 percent coverage over the base coat, completely hiding the base and the underlying concrete surface variations, then seals with a clear polyaspartic topcoat. The visual result is a rich, textured surface that looks intentional and finished rather than industrial. Flake colors blend in the broadcast to create custom combinations — gray and black for a modern industrial look, tan and brown for warmer tones, or color-matched combinations for sports teams or personal preference. The practical benefits are significant: the chip texture provides slip resistance, surface wear blends into the chip pattern rather than showing as a visible scratch, and the system is easy to maintain with a mop and mild cleaner. For Broomfield homeowners balancing aesthetics with functional garage use, full flake is often the sweet spot.
Why the Topcoat Choice Matters for Colorado's UV Environment
A metallic epoxy floor is only as beautiful long-term as its topcoat allows it to be. Standard epoxy clear coats are aromatic formulations that undergo UV-induced yellowing and chalking when exposed to sunlight — a particular problem in Broomfield, where Colorado's high-altitude UV intensity is significantly stronger than sea-level environments. A garage door open on a sunny afternoon in Broomfield delivers substantial UV dose to the front third of the floor, and over a season or two this shows as yellowing in the exposed section while the back of the garage stays clear — creating an uneven, degraded appearance. Polyaspartic topcoats used in Concrete Doctor's decorative floor systems are aliphatic formulations with inherent UV stability — they don't require UV absorbers that deplete over time. The clarity and gloss of a polyaspartic topcoat on a Broomfield garage floor looks the same in year eight as it did at installation, even with regular sun exposure. This is the single most important reason to specify a polyaspartic topcoat on any decorative floor system in Colorado rather than a standard epoxy clear coat.
