Updated October 2026 · Clean Floor Coatings, Little River, SC
Quick answer
Clean Floor Coatings coats garage floors, patios, pool decks and driveways across Wilmington, NC. Cape Fear slabs sit on sandy, wet ground in a humid climate, so every floor gets ground, tested and sealed with a moisture vapor barrier base before the flake and the polyaspartic top coat go down. The estimate is free and on site with Phil.

What Wilmington garages often deal with
- New construction garages in the growing parts of New Hanover County, where the slab is clean but still has to be ground before it will take a coating.
- Older Wilmington homes, such as the bungalows of Sunset Park south of downtown, many dating from 1914 on, with slabs poured long before vapor barriers were standard, where moisture comes straight up through the concrete.
- Floors that took on water in a storm and now have stains, white powder or a peeling coating. During Florence in 2018 the Cape Fear crested above its Matthew record and every road into the county closed for days.
- Garages that double as a workshop, a gym or golf cart parking.
Humidity, water and your slab
Wilmington sits between the Cape Fear River and the ocean, with a high water table and long, humid summers. That moisture has two ways to hurt a coating. It rises through the slab from below and pushes a weak coating off in blisters, and on muggy spring days it condenses on top of a cool slab and leaves the floor wet.
The fix for the first is a moisture vapor barrier base coat on a properly ground slab, which is part of every Clean Floor Coatings floor. The fix for the second is grip: flake texture, plus Shark Bite non skid on request. More in why coatings peel near the coast.
Building new in Wilmington?
The easiest time to coat a garage is before the boxes go in, but a new slab still needs work. Builders often leave a curing compound on fresh concrete, and the surface is smooth and dense. Both have to be ground off or the coating will not bond. See new build garage floor coating.
Already moved in? That is fine too. The crew moves everything out and puts it back. See do I need to empty my garage. Across the river, see garage floor coating in Leland, and to the north, Burgaw.
