About 44 percent of housing units in Fort Lauderdale are in buildings of ten or more units, 34 percent are single-family detached, and the median home was built in 1973. The mix suggests two jobs. Older single-family garages on half-century-old slabs need careful prep, and apartment and condo common areas are good candidates for a quartz or flake floor.
Broward County counted 3,805 restaurants and other eating places and 1,072 auto repair shops in 2023. Hospitality and service work sit alongside the housing, and a floor that's easy to clean and doesn't get slick when wet is what most of them need.

Quartz or flake in common areas, built for heavy foot traffic and easy to keep clean.
Restaurants and service bays
Non-slip, floors for kitchens, prep areas and service work, chosen around your cleaning routine.
Questions about floors in Fort Lauderdale
My Fort Lauderdale garage is on a slab from the 1970s. Can it be coated?
Usually, with prep. Old slabs carry oil, old coatings and cracks that have to be ground, filled and tested for moisture before a new floor goes on. If the slab isn't ready, we'll tell you before anything is poured.
Is flake or metallic better for a Florida garage?
Flake is the practical choice for a working garage and hides tire marks well. Metallic is the showpiece, mixed by hand so no two are the same. Many owners choose by how the garage is used.
Can you do a restaurant in one closure?
Sometimes. It depends on the area and the system. We plan the work around your closed hours and give you the cure time up front, so you know when the floor can take traffic.
