Garage Floor Coating · Jordan, MN · Est. 1996
Garage Floor Coating in Jordan, Minnesota.
Jordan sits in the Minnesota River valley in Scott County, where Sand Creek cuts down through the bluffs to meet the river. The old town is on the valley floor and the newer subdivisions climb the bluff above it, which gives the city an unusual amount of elevation change for its size. We coat garage floors for Jordan homeowners using Valence Protective Coatings systems: polyurea + polyaspartic on the long-life tiers, full diamond-ground prep on every job, written limited warranty in your hands at completion. Jordan's historic core holds late-1800s and early-1900s homes, many with detached garages added much later on slabs of uncertain vintage. The bluff-top subdivisions are a different era entirely: 1990s through 2010s construction with 3-car attached garages and full basements. The elevation difference between the two is the practical story, because a valley-floor basement and a bluff-top basement are not the same job.
Garage Floor Coating in Jordan
What an install looks like in Jordan.
Jordan is a small city with two very different sets of houses, and the bluff is the dividing line. Down on the valley floor the homes are old, the garages are usually detached and added later, and the ground holds water, so a Jordan basement estimate on the flat is a moisture conversation before it is anything else. Up on the bluff the subdivisions are newer, the garages are attached and three-car, the lots drain, and the work looks like any other newer suburb. Both are twenty minutes down Hwy 169 from the Chaska shop, which makes Jordan one of the easier outer cities to schedule.
Garage Floor Coating specifically in Jordan
Jordan garage work splits by elevation. Bluff-top subdivisions built from the 1990s onward have 3-car attached garages on sound slabs, so prep is light and the project is a color and tier decision. Valley-floor homes in the historic core usually have detached garages on slabs poured long after the house, which need assessment for settlement and cracking before anything is quoted. The polyurea and polyaspartic system is the same; the honest answer about the concrete underneath is what differs.

Why we don't lead with epoxy in Jordan
Why polyurea outlasts epoxy in a Minnesota garage.
Epoxy was the default for a long time. It's also the most common reason coatings fail in Minnesota: it yellows in sunlight, hot-tire pickup peels it off, and the freeze-thaw cycle finds every weak edge. Polyurea solves all three. It's flexible enough to ride out slab movement, UV-stable so it doesn't yellow, and bonded to the slab through diamond grinding so it doesn't lift.
Epoxy
What most cheap garage coatings still use
- Yellows in sunlight within 1 to 2 years
- Hot-tire pickup lifts the film off the slab
- Rigid film cracks with slab movement
- Slow cure: 5 to 7 days before driving
- Often applied over poor prep (acid etch instead of grinding)
Polyurea + polyaspartic
What Clear View installs on the Ultimate tier
- UV stable: the topcoat does not yellow
- Flexible enough to handle hot tires
- Diamond-ground bond: mechanical, not chemical
- Walk-on 24h, drive-on 48h
- Same flake color options as epoxy, longer life
Both systems still get installed across the Twin Cities. The price difference is real. The lifespan difference is bigger.
Jordan Pricing
Garage floor coating pricing in Jordan, MN.
Final price is a function of the slab (square footage, condition, joints, cracks), the tier you pick, and any prep work the concrete needs before the coating goes down. The ranges below are project totals from real installs, not per-square-foot teasers. Every quote is written and stable: the number we hand you at the estimate is the number you pay.
Standard (2-car)
~400 to 500 sq ft
From
$1,800
to $6,800
- Most installs land here
- Ultimate tier is the most common pick for 2-car garages
Large (3-car or oversized)
600+ sq ft
From
$3,200
to $14,400+
- Tier and prep dictate the upper end
- Apex tier on a 4-car floor with crack repair sits at the top of the range
Cracks, spalling, oil-stained concrete, or moisture issues add to the prep scope. We test for moisture and assess existing damage during the estimate so nothing surprises either of us later.
The 6-step install
How we install your floor in Jordan.
Same checklist on every install. The reason a 30-year-old shop stays in business is the work holding up at year ten.
- 1
In-home assessment + written quote
David visits the property, measures the slab, checks for moisture and existing damage, and writes a fixed quote on the tier that fits. No salesperson, no follow-up call campaigns, no contract pressure. The quote stays valid for 60 days. - 2
Diamond-ground prep
Day one starts with diamond grinding the entire slab to open the concrete profile. This is where most installers cut corners; we don't. The coating bond is only as good as the prep underneath it. - 3
Crack and joint repair
Any cracks, spalls, or joint failures get filled and tooled flat before the basecoat goes down. On older slabs this is the difference between a coating that lasts a decade and one that fails at year three. - 4
Basecoat application
Polyurea (Ultimate tier) or industrial urethane (Advanced tier) goes down at full mil thickness, rolled and back-rolled for even coverage. This is the structural layer that bonds to the prepped concrete. - 5
Decorative flake + sealing topcoat
On Ultimate-tier installs, full decorative flake is broadcast into the wet basecoat in your custom color blend. After cure, the excess is scraped, the floor swept, and the polyaspartic topcoat seals the system. - 6
Walk-through + warranty packet
Final walk-through with David on the finished floor, written warranty document in your hands, care guide for the first 30 days. Walk on at 24 hours, drive on at 48.
Jordan questions
Common questions for Jordan homeowners.
Does a Jordan basement floor need different treatment down in the valley?
Often, yes, and it is the reason we test rather than assume. Homes on the valley floor near Sand Creek and the Minnesota River sit on ground that holds water, and those slabs push more vapor. A slab pushing vapor will lift a film coating off the floor over time. High readings get a penetrating sealer that lets the slab breathe instead. Bluff-top homes usually test dry and take the standard film system.
My Jordan house is from 1905 and the garage is detached. Can that floor be coated?
Usually, once we have looked at it. Detached garage slabs on historic lots were typically poured decades after the house, sometimes over ground that has since settled, so the assessment comes before the quote. If the concrete is sound, it coats like any other floor. If it has settled or cracked beyond hairline, we tell you that honestly and recommend a concrete contractor rather than putting a finished surface over a failing slab.
Is Jordan far enough out that you charge for travel?
No. Fifteen miles, twenty to twenty-six minutes straight down Hwy 169 from the shop in Chaska. Jordan is inside the standard service area and the drive does not change the quote.
Is a small city like Jordan worth your time for one garage?
Yes. Clear View is owner-operated and takes a finite number of projects a year rather than chasing volume, so a single garage in Jordan is a normal booking and not a favor. The one thing distance does affect is scheduling flexibility, so if a neighbor is considering the same work, mentioning it can sometimes open an earlier date for both.
How long will a polyurea garage floor coating last?
On the Ultimate or Apex tier, with full prep and routine cleaning, 15 to 20+ years is realistic. Most failures we see in other installs trace back to skipped prep, not the coating itself. The film is durable; the bond underneath it is what determines lifespan.
What's the install timeline?
Most 2-car garages are a 1-day install. Larger spaces, heavy crack repair, or full-color custom builds run into a second day. We schedule the install so you can walk on the floor within 24 hours of completion and drive on it within 48.
Do you actually do the work yourself?
Yes. David handles every install personally; no subcontractors, no rotating crew. If you have a question during the job, you ask David. That's the entire reason it's owner-operated.
What about hot-tire pickup?
Polyurea is flexible enough to handle hot tires without lifting. This is one of the most common epoxy failure modes; it's not a polyurea problem. Park hot tires on a polyurea floor for a decade and the film stays bonded.
Will the topcoat yellow in sunlight?
Polyaspartic is UV stable. The topcoat does not yellow or chalk. This is true for garages with windows, three-season rooms, and any installation that sees direct sun.
Do I need to clear out the garage before you start?
Yes. The floor needs to be completely empty of cars, storage, shelving contents, and tools. Permanently mounted items (water heater, furnace, support posts, wall-mounted shelving) we work around. Plan to clear the day before; it always takes longer than people expect.
What if my slab has existing cracks?
Fine hairline cracks are normal and filled during prep. Active cracks or significant spalling get evaluated during the estimate; either we repair them as part of the install (added to the quote) or, if the slab needs more substantial repair, we say so honestly before the job starts.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes, every install includes a written limited warranty document. Specific terms vary by tier; David walks through the warranty during the in-home estimate so you know exactly what's covered before you sign.
What time of year is best for an install?
Polyurea cures in a wide temperature range, so installs run year-round in heated garages. Unheated spaces are easier April through October. We schedule installs ahead during peak season (May to September) by 3 to 6 weeks.
Is this a franchise or a local business?
Independent, locally owned, owner-operated. Clear View Surface Solutions has been a Chaska, MN business since 1996. BBB accredited A+ since October 2005. Not a national franchise.
