Epoxy Flooring in Tamarac, FL
A large share of the housing is 55-plus communities. Condo and townhome work is mostly garage floors and screened patios.
Tamarac incorporated in July 1963, but not like most Broward suburbs. Developer Kenneth Behring built it around a specific idea: the convenience of a condominium with the privacy of a single-family home, sold to active retirees. The first neighborhood, Tamarac Lakes, put one- and two-bedroom houses around a shared clubhouse, with a monthly fee covering lawn care, painting and roof cleaning. Mainlands and Woodlands followed.
That origin still shows. Just over a quarter of Tamarac residents are 65 or older, against roughly 18 percent countywide, and nearly half of all homes went up before 1980 — both of which shape what a floor here has to survive. There are two Tamaracs to coat, and they are not the same job.
The first is the retirement side. Mainlands of Tamarac Lakes is a master-planned community of single-family villages built between 1967 and 1977, some of them age-restricted. Kings Point is a gated 55-plus community off Nob Hill Road of condominiums, villas and coach homes built between 1983 and 2001. Work there is small and repetitive: one garage floor, one patio, one front walk. The slab is usually original concrete under forty years of paint and old coating, and a patio under a screen enclosure changes how far overspray can travel.
The second Tamarac is the family subdivision and the newer infill. Only about 13 percent of the city's units went up after 2000, but they look nothing like the retirement villages: larger garages, driveways, lanais, younger households using the garage as a workshop or a gym.
The city's own history page says Tamarac is no longer only a retirement destination, and the population has grown younger and more diverse. The work followed: we are as likely to be coating a driveway in a family subdivision as a garage floor in a 55-plus village.
What we install depends on which one you are standing on. On the older village slabs, a moisture-tolerant primer comes first, because a slab at grade in South Florida can pull vapor up through it and lift a coating from underneath. Then flake finishes with grip worked into the wear surface for garages and patios, since wet concrete under a screen enclosure gets slick. Metallic suits newer garages where appearance is the point.
One caution for condo and villa owners: exterior slabs and patios are often limited common elements, and the association usually controls what can be changed and in what color. Check with your board before scheduling; we will work to whatever has been approved.
Estimates are free and on site. Call or text (754) 801-8819, or send the form, and we will look at the actual slab rather than quote from a photo.
