Custom Flake
in Edina.

The Edina Quality Standard and the Decorative System

Edina homeowners do not approach the garage floor as an afterthought. The decision to add a custom flake finish is part of a renovation sequence that has already addressed every other surface in the home, and the expectation for the result matches that context. The free in-home design consultation for Edina custom flake projects brings the full range of premium chip blends, metallic finishes, and marble-effect options to the actual Edina garage.

Before the decorative chip can deliver its quality, the slab has to be ready to receive it. Heated garages are nearly universal in Edina, and the combination of interior warmth over frozen ground creates moisture vapor pressure that drives upward through the slab. A custom flake installation over a high-vapor Edina slab will delaminate below the chip layer as vapor pressure builds from beneath. Every Edina custom flake project begins with moisture testing, and product selection responds to the actual readings before the epoxy base goes down.

Diamond grinding on an Edina slab, whether a Country Club slab from the 1940s or a Cornelia slab from the 1970s, creates the mechanical adhesion profile and removes the most chloride-contaminated surface layer. Crack and spall repair address the damage revealed in the post-grind inspection. The chip broadcast goes over a properly prepared surface. The UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat sealing the chip layer maintains its finish quality through the full France Avenue and West 50th Street road salt season and handles the thermal cycling that Edina's heated garages produce between January subzero nights and summer afternoons.

Country Club and Morningside Color Directions

The Country Club district's craftsman and Tudor Revival homes from the 1930s and 1940s have garages whose proportions and architectural character call for a chip selection that complements rather than overwhelms. Warm neutral blends in medium density, understated dark neutrals with a partial broadcast, and custom blends matched to the home's exterior stone or brick character all fit the Country Club context. The consultation evaluates these options in the actual garage under actual lighting.

Cornelia and Indian Hills garages from the 1950s and 1970s have larger floor areas and more contemporary proportions that accommodate fuller broadcast densities and the more dimensional end of the chip palette. Full-broadcast dark neutrals and warm gray blends create a showroom-quality result in a Cornelia two-car attached garage. The consultation adapts to each specific garage's context.

Custom color matching is available for Edina homeowners whose specific architectural or interior palette calls for a chip blend outside the standard range. A Country Club home with a distinctive exterior limestone or brick character can have a chip blend that coordinates with those materials. The consultation explores both standard and custom options.

France Avenue Medical and Showroom Floors

Edina's France Avenue health corridor and the Southdale and Galleria retail zones have commercial floors where the surface quality matches the premium character of the surrounding development. A custom flake system on a France Avenue medical office floor delivers a designer finish appropriate to a patient-facing clinical environment, with seamless cleanability and chemical resistance to disinfectant agents. On a Galleria retail showroom floor, the chip broadcast creates a sophisticated ground plane that complements high-end merchandise display. The chip color and density are specified to the commercial space's design direction. Phased installation keeps operations running through the work.
