A City of Driveways
Epoxy flooring in Des Peres is almost always residential. ACS data on Point2Homes shows 98% of the housing here is single-family detached and 95.9% of occupied homes are owned. Building came in two waves: 19.3% of homes in the 1950s, then 29.7% in the 1970s and 18.9% in the 1980s, for a median build year of 1976. Those two waves left two kinds of garage floor.
The 1950s ranch garage
The older ranches here tend to have a garage for one or two cars, poured thin and without a vapor barrier. Over 70 years, they pick up cracks, low spots and a dusty surface. Prep tends to be heavier:
- Full grinding to reach sound concrete.
- Crack and spall repair.
- A moisture test to choose the primer.
- Sometimes a thicker build to even out a rough surface.
The 1970s and 1980s two-story garage
Later homes usually have larger attached garages with better slabs. Common issues are worn surfaces near the door and stains under the cars. These floors take well to full chip coverage sealed with polyaspartic, which stands up to the salt tracked in each winter.
Creeks and lower levels
The city is named for the River des Peres, whose tributaries Deer Creek and Two Mile Creek ran through the town, according to Wikipedia. Homes near low ground can see more moisture in their basements. We test before every basement floor coating and tell you plainly if water needs to be dealt with first.
Near West County Center
West County Center opened here in 1969, and shops and service businesses surround it. If you manage a stockroom, a service bay or a back corridor nearby, we can quote a commercial system and plan around store hours.
An older population
The 2020 median age in Des Peres was 44.6. Many owners ask for a floor that wipes clean and stays steady underfoot, so we add grip to the topcoat as a matter of course.

Des Peres Questions
My Des Peres ranch has a dusty garage floor. What causes that?
Older concrete can lose its surface layer over time, leaving it dusty. Grinding removes the weak layer so the coating bonds to firm concrete.
Does a 1970s garage need less prep than a 1950s one?
Often, but not always. We grind every floor and test moisture. The older slab may need more crack repair and filling.
My basement is near a creek. Can it still be coated?
Usually. We test the slab and use a moisture-tolerant primer if needed. If water is actively coming in, that must be fixed first.
Can you add grip without making the floor hard to clean?
Yes. A fine aggregate in the topcoat adds traction while still letting you sweep and mop easily.
