Brick Bungalows and Their Basements

Epoxy flooring in Affton typically means a house from the 1940s or 1950s. ACS data on Point2Homes dates 31% of Affton's homes to the 1950s, 20.5% in the 1960s and 15.2% in the 1940s, with a median build year of 1958. About 83% of housing is single-family detached and 80.8% of occupied homes are owned. Many of these homes have a basement and a modest one-car or detached garage.

Basement first

In homes of this age, the basement is often the bigger project. We usually find:

Painted or sealed floors that are peeling in spots.
A floor drain that sets the slope of the room.
Old patches where plumbing was moved.
Damp areas near walls after heavy rain.

We test for moisture, grind off old coatings, repair cracks and then decide on a primer. If water is coming in, that gets fixed before any coating.

Small garages, simple systems

Compact garages do not need a complicated floor. A single-color base with a flake broadcast and a polyaspartic topcoat is quick to install and handles winter salt. For a detached garage that doubles as a workshop, a lighter solid color makes the space brighter.

Unincorporated, so fewer layers

Affton is an unincorporated community and census-designated place, so it does not have its own city government. For most residential coating work, that changes little. If you are in a condo or have a deed restriction, check whether any rules apply before scheduling.

Thinking about resale

With so many owners, many Affton homes stay in families for years or are updated for sale. A clean, coated basement floor can make a lower level feel finished. We can quote a full system or a simpler option and explain the difference in writing.

Winter in a one-car garage

A small garage has less room for slush to spread out, so salty meltwater pools right where you step out of the car. A textured topcoat keeps that spot less slick, and a slight lip at the door can be left in place to hold water back. A handful of rinses over the winter stops salt from building up.

Affton Questions

My Affton basement floor is painted and peeling. What happens to the paint?

It comes off. Grinding removes loose and old paint, leaving bare concrete for the new coating to bond with.

Can you coat around a basement floor drain?

Yes. We follow the existing slope to the drain and finish the coating neatly at its edge.

Is a coating worth it in a small one-car garage?

Often, yes. Smaller floors cost less to coat, and a sealed surface is much easier to sweep and keep clean.

Do I need a permit in unincorporated Affton for a floor coating?

Floor coatings usually do not require a permit, but rules can vary. We recommend checking with St. Louis County if you are unsure.
