DIY versus Hiring Professionals

Epoxy flooring is rising in popularity. Once used for primarily garages and basements is now being installed in residential homes, offices, and retail stores. Once you’ve decided you are ready to upgrade your home, office, or warehouse, it’s time to determine if you’re going to tackle the project yourself or hire a specialist to come in and do the work. Here are some things to consider. 

Preparation:

Preparation is potentially the most crucial step and the part where most DIYers fail to complete thoroughly. Professionals use diamond grinders to clean and abrade the floor. This critical part of the process will ensure the epoxy will adhere properly. You are creating the surface that the epoxy will bond to for its lifespan. If you’re attempting to do this project yourself, you probably don’t have the professional diamond etcher and might try to acid etch the floor to prep it for the epoxy. And still, acid etching doesn’t allow as much adhesion between the epoxy and the concrete. Your floor will look great for a year or two, but a professionally installed floor can last for up to twenty years. 

Moisture Levels:

Professionals will always inspect for moisture. Epoxy seals to the concrete, and if there were any moisture left behind, it would create bubbles in the flooring as it evaporates. 

Application:

An electronic mixer is recommended to mix the two components of the epoxy. And there are quite a few steps to the application process: apply the epoxy primer, apply grout for cracks and holes, first coat mixing, using a roller for epoxy application, and applying the final coat. 

Appearance:

When you epoxy the floor yourself, the design options are limited. The two main options are either a solid colour or a solid colour with some flakes. The light spread of coloured vinyl flakes makes the appearance more interesting, and they also distract from any imperfections in the finished coating. You might have bubbles, roller marks or pinholes when you install the flooring yourself. When you hire a professional, the options for flooring appearance are much more vast. 

Durability:

Durability is the most significant difference that is noticed between installing an epoxy floor yourself versus hiring a professional. DIY epoxy floors rarely last more than a couple of years before they start peeling, flaking, cracking, or yellowing due to UV exposure. Re-coating the floor is difficult because you’ll need to remove the original epoxy flooring first. When you hire a professional, the quality of the epoxy flooring is vastly superior. The difference mainly comes from the flooring preparation. Professionals have the equipment, tools, experience, and quality products to create a lasting and beautiful epoxy floor. 

Cost:

Not surprisingly, if you go down to your local hardware store and buy a floor coating kit, it will be much more cost-effective than hiring a professional. At least in the immediate future. An epoxy flooring kit generally costs from $100 – $500. A professionally installed epoxy floor costs more depending on the square footage and types of products used.
