Older builder-grade slabs around Flagstaff rarely come out perfectly smooth after decades of freeze-thaw cycling. Decorative flake flooring is the upgrade homeowners pick when they want a showroom look and a layer that hides minor surface flaws at the same time.
Flagstaff Epoxy Pros layers color flakes into the base coat, then seals it all with a clear topcoat. It's more steps than a solid-color epoxy job, but the payoff is a finish that both looks better and wears longer.
