Brick Arches, a Long Crack and a Pebble Beach Floor in Woodinville

A big Woodinville garage behind brick arches had a crack at the door and years of stains. Cascade repaired it and coated it in Pebble Beach flake in August 2025.

This Woodinville garage is the kind you notice from the street. Brick columns, white arched openings, and a long, deep space behind them with an arched window at the back. The floor did not match the rest. A crack ran across the slab right at the door, and the concrete was blotched with oil, rust-colored stains and years of tire marks. Part of the space also held a home gym and a riding mower.

In August 2025 Cascade put down a garage floor coating in Woodinville with Certified Penntek polyurea in Pebble Beach flake. The crack is gone from view and the floor finally looks like it belongs behind those arches.

The slab at the May consult

The free consultation was in May 2025. Here is what the crew found:

  • A long crack running across the entry, wandering the way settlement cracks do.
  • Heavy staining in the middle of the bays where cars had parked for years.
  • Moisture readings of 4.9% and 4.4%. Cascade tests every slab before giving a quote.
  • Gym equipment, rubber mats and a mower that would all need to come out for install.

Two days for a big garage

A garage this size gets the same steps as a small one. There is just more floor. The crew spent the first day on prep and came back the next day for the coating.

  1. Industrial diamond grinding across all three bays, then a full vacuum.
  2. Penntek Mender crack repair along the entry crack and any other open lines.
  3. Pure polyurea basecoat, over 99% solids, with no fillers.
  4. Full broadcast of Pebble Beach flake.
  5. Scrape and collect the extra chips.
  6. Polyaspartic topcoat with FadeLock™ UV stability.

The flake was also carried up the short stem wall at the door frames, so the edges look finished instead of stopping at a raw line.

Why Pebble Beach fits this house

Pebble Beach Evolution is a warm blend of tan, cream, gray and dark brown chips. Next to the red brick and the beige walls it reads warm instead of cold. With the big doors open in summer, sunlight pours across the floor, which is why the topcoat matters. FadeLock™ passed a 16-hour QUV accelerated UV test and won't yellow or amber.

The busy pattern also helps a garage that does more than park cars. Chalk from the gym, grass from the mower and grit off the driveway all blend into it.

What happens to the crack now

Most slabs crack sooner or later. The question is what the coating does next. Rigid coatings can split right along the old line once the slab moves again. The Penntek basecoat is flexible. It moves with the slab through temperature swings and freeze-thaw instead of fighting it. The Penntek Stretch Test shows how far it can give.

Under that is the bond. The polyurea forms a chemical bond with the concrete at over 1,300 PSI. The floor carries a limited lifetime warranty backed by Penntek, registered on every job.

Bigger garages in Woodinville

Woodinville has plenty of homes with three-car garages, shops and outbuildings, often on bigger lots out toward the valley. Those garages turn into gyms, storage rooms and workspaces. If yours is headed that way, our post on workshop, gym and garage design ideas has more to think about.

FAQ for large garages

Will the crack show back up through the new floor?

Cracks are filled with Penntek Mender before the basecoat goes down. The flexible polyurea moves with the slab, so it is much less likely to split along the old line than a rigid coating. New cracks can still form in any slab, and Cascade will tell you what to watch for.

Can I put gym equipment back on a polyurea floor?

Yes. Once the crew gives you the all-clear, the gym and mats can go back in. Many people leave a rubber mat under heavy racks just to protect the gear.

Does a three-car garage take longer than one day?

Sometimes. This one took two days, prep first and coating second. Your quote will say how the schedule works for your floor.
