Garage coatings for Hilshire Village homes, done right.
Hilshire Village is a small enclave inside the 610 loop where homeowners expect professional work and don’t tolerate shortcuts. Elite Coatings handles every Hilshire job with a personal walkthrough, honest substrate read, and a written scope before any install begins.
Coating systems for Hilshire Village homes and commercial spaces.
Hilshire Village sits inside the 610 loop on land with a shallow water table and older slab inventory. Most Hilshire homes are 1950s to 1970s vintage, which means slabs that have seen decades of thermal cycling, some settlement, and often a previous sealer or coating that needs to be addressed before anything new goes down.
Flake Epoxy for Garages+
Chip-broadcast flake epoxy is the most-requested residential system we install in Hilshire Village. It hides surface pitting and hairline cracks, resists tire marks and oil staining, and gives garages a clean professional look with slip-resistant texture. Of the coated systems this one asks the least of your budget, and the quote includes full diamond grinding, a moisture barrier when the slab requires it, and a commercial-grade polyaspartic topcoat. Full flake system details here.
Metallic Epoxy Showroom Floors+
Metallic epoxy is our premium residential and commercial finish. No two floors look the same: the metallic pigments move and pool differently on every slab, creating a one-of-a-kind result. Good fit for Hilshire Village showrooms, luxury garages, restaurants, and retail. It is the premium end of what we install, and the per-foot price reflects that. Metallic epoxy details here.
Polished Concrete+
Diamond-ground, densified, and burnished concrete that turns the slab itself into the finish floor. No topcoat to peel. Life-of-building durability when the substrate is right. Good fit for Hilshire Village warehouses, retail, restaurants, offices, and modern residential. It asks the least per square foot of any floor we build, and scales down further on commercial work. Polished concrete details here.
Patio & Exterior Coatings+
UV-stable polyaspartic and exterior specialty systems for Hilshire Village patios, pool decks, driveways, and covered outdoor areas. Purpose-built for Texas sun and Houston humidity. Interior epoxy outside will chalk and peel within a season. We won’t install that at an exterior site. Exterior concrete details here.
Solid Color Epoxy+
Clean, flat finish for Hilshire Village garages, workshops, and utility rooms. Chemical durability, easy to maintain, visually tidy. Good choice for commercial and industrial spaces that want a professional look without the texture variation of flake. Solid color details here.
Stained Concrete+
Natural organic color directly on the existing slab. Acid or water-based stain, sealed with UV-stable topcoat. Good fit for Hilshire Village homeowners who want to keep the concrete character rather than cover it with epoxy. Stained concrete details here.
Prep is 80% of the job.
The biggest wildcard on older Hilshire slabs is previous treatments. A sealer applied fifteen or twenty years ago can be nearly invisible but will cause adhesion failure in a new epoxy system if it isn’t removed. We test for previous coatings as part of the pre-install inspection and grind aggressively when we find residue.
Hilshire jobs tend to run on the smaller side, which means every detail is visible. We bring the same crew, the same materials, and the same prep protocol to a 400-square-foot Hilshire garage that we bring to a 3,000-square-foot commercial floor.
What Hilshire Village homeowners say.
“Justin walked my slab before he gave me a number. Found a moisture issue the other guy didn’t mention. Glad I went with Elite. The floor held through a full Texas summer without a single issue.”
Marcus T. · Hilshire Village · Flake garage“Quoted me honestly, showed up on time, did the prep properly, and the result looks better than the photos on the website. No sales games. Straight shooter.”
Rachel H. · Hilshire Village“Patio coating looks brand new two years in. No chalking, no peeling. I’ve had compliments from guests who thought we replaced the concrete.”
Dave W. · Hilshire Village“They told me one of my slabs wasn’t a good candidate until I got a crack repaired. I appreciated the honesty. Came back after the repair and installed a metallic floor that gets comments every time someone sees the garage.”
Karen L. · Hilshire Village, TX“Commercial floor in our Hilshire Village shop. They handled the square footage efficiently, stayed on schedule, and the floor has held up to daily forklift traffic. Same price they quoted.”

Questions we hear from Hilshire Village homeowners.
My garage has an old paint or sealer on it. Does that change the prep?
Yes, significantly. Previous coatings have to be removed before a new system goes down. We use diamond grinding to strip old paint, sealer, and surface laitance. If the previous treatment is thick or well-bonded, we factor extra grinding time into the scope and price it honestly up front.
What does epoxy prep look like in Hilshire Village?
Every install starts with diamond grinding to open the concrete surface to CSP 3-4 profile. We run a calcium-chloride moisture test, route and fill any cracks, and apply a moisture barrier when the test reading calls for it. Prep is typically half or more of the total install time. Skipping it is the primary reason coatings fail.
How much does a Hilshire Village garage floor cost?
We walk the slab first, then price it by the square foot. Polished concrete is the least expensive per foot, flake and solid color epoxy sit above it, and metallic epoxy is the top of the range. Every price includes full prep, moisture treatment when needed, and a commercial-grade topcoat. We quote in writing with the scope itemized so there are no add-ons on install day.
Do you offer free quotes in Hilshire Village?
Yes. Justin or a member of the team walks the slab, runs a moisture test, documents any repairs needed, and gives you a written scope and price. No high-pressure tactics. If the slab isn’t a good candidate for coating, we’ll tell you that before you commit to anything.
How long does a Hilshire Village install take?
Most residential garage installs run one to two days. Foot traffic at 24 hours, vehicle traffic at 72 hours. Larger commercial installs are scoped individually. Older slabs with more prep work take longer and we price that into the scope at quote time.
What neighborhoods do you cover in Hilshire Village?
