Concrete coatings in Columbus, Ohio
Concrete floor coatings built for Columbus
Central Ohio keeps growing, from Columbus and Bexley out to Westerville, Delaware and Canal Winchester. Whether it is a new build that needs a finished garage or an older home with a tired basement, we install most floors in a single day.
Weather here swings fast: hard freezes, quick thaws and long, humid summers. Every thaw drives water and salt into bare concrete, and every summer pushes moisture up through basement slabs. Our system bonds to diamond-ground concrete and seals it, so the floor resists salt, stays dry to the touch and keeps its color through both seasons.
Ready to see what your floor could look like? Book a free estimate in Columbus and a specialist will walk the space with you, answer your questions and price the job on the spot. Installation usually takes a single day, backed by our 15-year warranty. Call 888-815-0314 any time.

What winter does to a floor in Columbus
Average monthly snowfall, John Glenn Columbus International Airport
The John Glenn Columbus International Airport, the closest long-record weather station to Columbus, averages 28.2 inches of snow and 103 nights below freezing a year. On about 76 days a year the temperature here drops below freezing overnight and climbs back above it during the day. Each of those swings lets meltwater and road salt soak into bare concrete, freeze and expand. That’s what causes the flaking and pitting you see on uncoated garage floors around Columbus. A polyurea basecoat seals the surface, so water and salt sit on top where you can squeegee them out the door.

Floor coating questions from Columbus homeowners
Do you install concrete floor coatings in Columbus?
Yes. Comer & Cross crews coat garages, basements, patios and driveways across the Columbus area, including Columbus, Westerville, Dublin, Grove City, Hilliard and Lancaster. We cover 99 ZIP codes around Columbus, and every job starts with a free in-home estimate.
Will a floor coating hold up to Columbus winters?
Yes, if it’s the right system. The John Glenn Columbus International Airport weather station averages 28.2 inches of snow and about 76 freeze-thaw days a year. Rigid epoxy tends to crack and peel under that, which is why we use a flexible polyurea basecoat and a polyaspartic topcoat, bonded to diamond-ground concrete. Every floor comes with our 15-year warranty.
My Columbus house is older. Can you still coat the garage floor?
Almost always. Half the homes in our Columbus service area were built before 1983, so older slabs are most of what we see. Cracks, pitting, old paint and sealers are ground off and repaired as part of the install. If a section is too far gone to coat, your estimator will tell you at the free visit.

If you are on the fence about getting your patio flooring poly coated, you should contact Comer and Cross!!! Not only is the finished work beyond beautiful, the customer service is just amazing!!! We were supposed to get it done a few weeks ago but Mother Nature had other plans. The communication that Moe (crew leader) had with me was so professional and beyond accommodating. He was even going to come on his day off (Sunday) two weeks in a row to get it done. Moe and Damian came today and I knew it was gonna look good, but I am blown away how amazing it looks!!! The two of them worked in the 95-degree heat and were so efficient and super friendly!!! I'm so excited to begin using our patio. If we do our garage floor I would only go with them.

Very professional and knowledgeable from start to finish. Used them to coat our garage, which they did a great job on. They may be a little more than some other companies, but they certainly do a great job and great attention to detail. We got quotes from other companies that were higher and they did not seem to be as knowledgeable or do as good a job as Comer. Would recommend again for any service they provide.
Debbie Nelson2 weeks ago
We had 2 projects done: our basement and our garage. Looking back on my before pictures, our garage was pretty bad. We had rust-pitted concrete from the salt and weather. Now they look amazing.
