Custom Flake

The Custom Flake System

Custom flake garage floors in Memphis, TN use vinyl color chips broadcast over a high-solids epoxy basecoat at densities ranging from a light scatter to a full-broadcast solid coverage, then sealed under a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat. The design is defined by the color blend in the flake and the density of the broadcast, both of which are selected during the in-home consultation.

The color options are not a short list. Our Memphis consultations present hundreds of flake color combinations. The charcoal and graphite blends that suit the cleaner design aesthetic of a Midtown or Cooper-Young renovation read very differently from the warmer tan and beige palettes that fit the newer construction in Germantown or Collierville. Custom blends are available for homeowners who want to match a specific color, a cabinetry finish, or the palette of a vehicle collection.

Metallic finishes are the premium end of the custom floor spectrum in Memphis. Metallic epoxy uses pigment dispersed in the basecoat to create depth and dimensional movement in the surface, a finish that reads differently depending on the viewing angle and the lighting. Marble finishes replicate stone veining and tonal variation. Both are available and are selected through the same in-home consultation process as the custom flake options.

In-Home Consultation for Memphis Homeowners

The design consultation is the first step of every custom flake project in Memphis, TN. We bring physical samples to your home and evaluate them in your garage under your actual lighting conditions, which matter more than most homeowners initially realize. A color that looks right on a screen or in a showroom environment looks different on your specific slab under your specific garage lights.

Memphis homes span a wide range of architectural contexts. A 1920s Craftsman bungalow in Midtown or Central Gardens has proportions and natural light characteristics that differ substantially from a large contemporary garage in a Germantown estate home. The consultation accounts for those differences rather than presenting the same recommendation regardless of context.

The consultation is free and requires no commitment. It is the starting point for every custom flake and metallic project we install in the Greater Memphis area.

Installation Day in Memphis, TN

Custom flake and metallic installations in Memphis, TN follow the same foundation as all our work: diamond grinding to open the aggregate and create mechanical adhesion, crack and surface repair, moisture testing in Memphis's humid conditions, and then the coating sequence. The distinction for custom work is the care required during the broadcast and topcoat phases.

Full-broadcast flake installation requires even distribution across the full slab surface. Low spots, uneven density, or flake that settles into the wet basecoat unevenly all show through the polyaspartic topcoat. Our Memphis installers have the technique to get the broadcast right across the full floor before the topcoat goes on.

Metallic finishes require working within the open window of the basecoat to manipulate the metallic pigment for the desired depth and movement effect. Memphis's summer heat and humidity affect that open window, and our crews account for the conditions when planning metallic installations. Most custom floor projects in Memphis are complete in a single day.

Memphis Neighborhood Design Contexts

The diversity of Memphis neighborhoods creates a range of design contexts for custom garage floors. Cooper-Young and the South Main Arts District attract homeowners with a design-forward sensibility where metallic and marble finishes have strong appeal. East Memphis and High Point Terrace residential garages in established mid-century homes often suit the cleaner charcoal flake blends. Newer construction in Bartlett, Arlington, and Lakeland typically leans toward full-broadcast neutrals that complement the architecture.

Homeowners in Whitehaven, Orange Mound, and Raleigh working with older slabs that have accumulated years of staining and cracking have full access to the same design options as those in new Collierville construction. The prep process scales to the condition of the concrete, and the design palette does not change based on the slab's history.
