Epoxy Flooring in Siesta Shores, TX

Epoxy flooring in Siesta Shores tends to start outdoors. Of the community's 1.6 square miles, 0.85 is water and 0.73 is land, so much of daily life faces Falcon International Reservoir. The concrete people care about most here is often the patio, the pool deck, the walkway to the water and the garage where the boat lives.

Why outdoor slabs need a different system

Indoor garage epoxy is the wrong product for a sunny patio. Plain epoxy breaks down and yellows under steady UV. Outdoors we build the floor with a polyaspartic or other UV-stable topcoat, and we add texture so wet feet and flip-flops have grip. On pool decks we keep the surface cool to the eye by steering you toward lighter colors, since dark finishes absorb more heat in direct sun.

Patio and pool deck coatings

• A ground and patched slab, with spalled edges rebuilt
• A base coat matched to outdoor exposure
• Flake or a textured finish for slip resistance
• A UV-stable topcoat that keeps the color from fading or ambering

We also look at drainage. If water already ponds in a low spot, a coating will not fix that, and we will say so before quoting.

Boat and lake-gear garages

Falcon Reservoir is known for its bass fishing, and the lake covers 83,654 acres. Garages here store boats, trailers, coolers and rods. A flake floor sealed with a chemical-resistant topcoat handles lake water dripping off a hull and the occasional fuel spill. We also seal the threshold where the trailer rolls in, since that is where water tends to sit.

Grown in the 2000s

Siesta Shores counted 890 people in 2000 and 1,382 in 2010, a 55.3% increase, and 1,450 in 2020. Many of the homes, patios and pads date from that growth. Twenty-year-old outdoor concrete has had a lot of sun, and its top layer is often weak and powdery. Grinding removes that layer so the coating bonds to sound concrete underneath.

Steps, edges and outdoor kitchens

Lakeside patios rarely stop at a flat slab. Steps down to the yard, curbs around planters and the counter base of an outdoor kitchen all need attention. Edges are where outdoor coatings fail first, so we round and patch them before coating and run the finish down the face of each step. Grease near a grill wipes up from a sealed surface, while bare concrete holds the stain.

Timing outdoor work

Zapata's weather record, a few miles away, shows a record high of 116°F and about 48 rainy days a year. Outdoor coatings need a dry slab and a dry forecast. We test moisture after rain and pick a morning window when the slab is cool enough to work.

Caring for a lakeside floor

A coated patio or pool deck needs little upkeep. Sweep off sand and grit, which act like sandpaper under shoes. Rinse pool water and lake mud off before they dry. Use a mild cleaner instead of harsh solvents. Furniture with bare metal feet can scratch any finish, so felt or rubber pads help. If the topcoat wears thin in a busy spot after years of sun, it can usually be scuffed and recoated without stripping the whole system.

What it costs

Outdoor jobs depend on slab condition, edge repair, steps and drainage details. We measure on site and give you a written estimate.
