Homeowners throughout Central Florida often want to know what concrete coatings truly cost before upgrading their garage, patio, or driveway. The answer depends on several factors, but on average, concrete coatings range between $5 and $12 per square foot in 2025. While appearance plays a big role, coatings also protect concrete from wear, UV exposure, and long-term damage — meaning the investment impacts both aesthetics and durability.
The primary contributors to the overall price are the condition of the existing surface, the square footage of the project, and the coating system selected. Surfaces that have cracks, chips, pits, or moisture damage require repair prior to coating. Many companies charge extra for this step, but XANO521 Concrete Coatings includes mechanical diamond grinding and repair on every installation, ensuring strong adhesion and long-lasting results.
Project size also affects cost — not only in total investment but in price per square foot. Larger garages or driveways typically cost more overall, yet economies of scale can lower the per-square-foot price. Transparency matters, and XANO521 provides upfront pricing with no hidden fees.
The coating material plays a major role in both cost and performance. Epoxy is cheaper but less durable and not UV-stable, making it suitable only for indoor spaces. Polyurea and polyaspartic systems cost more but deliver superior flexibility, longevity, and UV protection, making them ideal for Florida garages, patios, and driveways. XANO521 installs a polyurea basecoat with a polyaspartic topcoat, allowing the coating to withstand heat, humidity, chemicals, scratches, and sun exposure for 15–20 years with minimal maintenance.
Labor is another part of the investment — and it directly affects results. Up to 70% of a project’s cost can come from installation, and poor workmanship can lead to peeling and failure. XANO521 uses trained, in-house technicians rather than subcontractors to ensure consistent quality from grinding through sealing. Homeowners can also customize colors, flake blends, and textures to increase curb appeal without significantly increasing the project cost.
