Basement Floor Coatings: A Comparison of Popular Options

Basement floor coatings transform a dull and dreary space into a fun, usable room. You might want to use the space as a den, a family games room, an extra sleeping space, or a high-end entertainment area. The choices seem almost endless with the right flooring.

Coating systems offer a quick and cost-effective way to achieve the look you want. But with so many options from which to choose, many people feel overwhelmed.

The Skyline Concrete Coating crew can help to end that confusion. We’ll start you off with our five most popular coating options to get you thinking about your basement floor coatings in Metro Washington. If you need more assistance, feel free to reach out to our team.

What Are Good Basement Floor Coatings for Metro Washington?

At Skyline Concrete Coating, we work with high-quality polyurea and polyaspartic coating options. We can customize your look with a range of pigments and other additives. Think about the type of coating you might like from the selection below.

Alternatively, speak to us about your vision, and let’s see how we can use basement floor coatings to achieve it.

Solid Colors

Quick, simple, and painless, this style makes the most cost-effective option. Choose a generic color like gray or brown so that the floor blends into the background and compliments any decor style you choose.

Would you like to express yourself more? Choose a cobalt blue to complement a Mediterranean theme or black for a cozy cave look. Otherwise, why not go for high drama with neon green or hot pink? A solid color doesn’t have to mean boring with the wide range of pigments we offer.

This look replicates floor paint most closely, without the hassle of repainting every couple of years. We ensure that we prepare the floor properly so that we can confidently offer our 15-year warranty.

Thanks to the durable nature of the medium, your floors won’t peel, flake, or delaminate during their lifespan. They will also resist scratches and scuffing.

Metallic

Basement floor coatings become even more interesting with the mesmerizing 3-D metallic effect. Resembling marble veining, you can choose colors to suit you. This coating makes a fun addition to a family game room and an interesting option for a bar.

Metallics currently trend as a high-fashion look due to the depth and interest of the effect. The floor looks different depending on the angle from which you approach it and the light that bathes it.

If you want to add a statement piece to your basement, this makes an excellent place to start.

Faux Stone or Marble

Would you like something more elegant or with a more luxe effect? Marble or onyx coatings can provide the foundation for an amazing new look. For something out of the ordinary, you might even replicate the rich blues of lapis lazuli.

If you prefer a more toned-down look or to lighten the space, we can recreate the look of Travertine marble or sandstone.

Why pay a fortune for natural stones that will feel cold underfoot, attract moisture, and generally go unnoticed when polyurea is available?

Polyurea Chip Coatings

Chip coatings offer another quick and easy way to create a unique look. We hand-cast vinyl flakes in a selection of colors and combinations. We can add quartz chips, mica, or other glittering elements to replicate the look of granite.

When it comes to color combinations, you may select many options. Would you like your flooring to be in your favorite colors?

The hand casting means that each floor is unique. The chips lie slightly differently and add depth and interest. The floor also looks different in various lighting conditions.

Custom Looks

Would you like your basement floor coatings to have a truly unique feel? How about a basement floor that looks like a beach? Would you prefer it to look like a garden pond? While customer designs take longer and cost more, they can make your space even more impressive.

Things To Consider When Choosing Your Design

When it comes to choosing the design, we will discuss the following elements with you:

  • Your plans for the future. Are you planning to sell your home within the next 10 to 15 years? If this is the case, it may be prudent to choose a more generic option with greater general appeal.
  • What effect do you wish to create? Do you want something minimalist, or should the floor be the star of the show?
  • How much traffic will the floor handle? Are you going to install a heavy pool table and have friends over every week or use the room occasionally?
  • What is the lighting in the space like? Do you need a lighter, more reflective floor to lighten the overall space?
  • Do you want the room to look bigger or smaller? A lighter floor will emphasize how much space there is, while a dark floor will make the room seem smaller.
  • Your budget. Is it better to save for a little longer to afford the best quality option? Would you need to access financing?
