high-performance coatings for commercial spaces , I bring real craftsmanship to every floor I touch.

This isn’t some fly-by-night crew rolling in from out of town. There’s no sales rep, no subcontractors—just me, doing the work the right way.

Every floor I install comes with a 15-year warranty , because I prep it, coat it, and stand behind it like I’m putting it in my own home.

If you live in Urbana or anywhere nearby, you’re working directly with the guy who owns the business,

from your first call to the final walkthrough.

Hardworking Epoxy Floors for Real-World

Conditions in Urbana

Garages. Workshops. Patios. Warehouse bays. Around Urbana, concrete gets put through the wringer—and if your floor isn’t protected with a system built for it, you’re going to see cracking, stains, and surface failure way too soon. That’s where I come in.

At Miller’s Epoxy Solutions, I build floor systems that don’t flinch under pressure. Hot tires? Grease and salt? Dropped tools? Heavy foot traffic? No problem. I prep every surface with professional-grade grinding equipment, install only premium two-part epoxies, and finish with a UV-stable topcoat that stands up to the Central Illinois climate.

Whether it’s a garage off Vine Street or a shop near Lincoln Square, I’ll turn your rough slab into something sharp, solid, and built to last.

Live in Urbana or anywhere nearby? I’ll shoot you straight, no pressure, no gimmicks, just honest advice and clear pricing. I’ll walk you through the options, explain what’ll work best for your space, and give you a quote that makes sense.

You’ll get a floor that works hard and looks good doing it.

Flake Epoxy Flooring in Urbana — Durable, Clean, and Built to Last

If you’re in Urbana or anywhere across Central Illinois, this is one of the most popular systems I install, and once it’s down, it’s easy to see why. Flake epoxy flooring combines tough, industrial-grade durability with a crisp, professional look that works in just about any space. Whether you’re coating a garage, basement, workshop, or even a small storefront, this system checks all the boxes.

I don’t mess around with quick fixes or cheap kits. Every install starts with full mechanical surface prep, I grind the concrete down to raw, clean slab to ensure a long-lasting bond. Then I apply a thick layer of high-solids epoxy, broadcast your choice of flake across the entire surface, and finish it off with a UV-stable, chemical-resistant polyaspartic topcoat that locks everything in.

What you get is a seamless, slip-resistant floor that can handle moisture, oil, road salt, hot tires, and heavy daily use without cracking or peeling. I’ve laid down this system in Urbana garages, farm buildings out in the countryside, basement rec rooms, and high-use shops all over the area.

Flake also helps hide dust and dirt while adding traction—and with dozens of blends and colors to choose from, I’ll help you find the look that fits your style. Whether your floor’s brand-new or rough and stained, flake epoxy is a smart, lasting upgrade for Urbana homes and businesses.

Metallic Epoxy Flooring in Urbana IL: Where Art Meets Durability

If you're looking for a floor that does more than just perform, metallic epoxy is your showstopper. This system blends metallic pigments into a clear epoxy base to create a deep, high-gloss finish that shifts and swirls like polished stone or liquid metal. No two metallic floors come out the same, and that’s the point. I hand-pour and manipulate every layer on-site, so your floor in Urbana will be completely unique.

It may look like a showroom centerpiece, but this system is built tough. The epoxy base is industrial-grade and can stand up to moisture, chemical spills, foot traffic, and abrasion without breaking a sweat. I’ve installed metallic floors in Urbana garages, basements, salons, showrooms, and modern commercial spaces that need to look sharp and hold up over time.

This system really shines in finished basements, retail environments, or anywhere your floor needs to impress just as much as it performs. As always, I handle the surface prep from start to finish. I grind the concrete, patch any cracks or damage, and lay down the system the right way so it bonds tight and holds up for years.

If you're in Urbana and want a floor that turns heads and takes a beating, metallic epoxy is one of the most dramatic and long-lasting options I offer.

Solid Color Epoxy in Urbana IL: Clean, Tough, and Straight to the Point

Not every floor needs to make a scene. Sometimes, you just need something that works hard and holds up, and that’s exactly what solid color epoxy delivers. I install this system throughout Urbana and Central Illinois in garages, utility rooms, commercial spaces, and anywhere durability and low upkeep matter more than flash.

You choose the color. Whether it’s classic gray, beige, black, or something bold like safety yellow, I’ve got options to fit your space. I’ll handle the rest. The epoxy I use is professional-grade and built for the long haul. It shrugs off oil, water, salt, and heavy traffic without bubbling, peeling, or wearing out before its time.

This system is one of my most versatile installs. I’ve used it in Urbana garages, commercial bays, warehouses, and high-use shops from Philo to Rantoul. It’s the right fit when you want something reliable, easy to clean, and tough enough to take real-world abuse without falling apart.

Need added traction? I can build in texture to boost slip resistance for wet areas or high-traffic zones. If you’re after a no-fuss floor that gets the job done, solid color epoxy is as practical as it gets.

Grind and Seal in Urbana IL: Clean, Modern, and Low-Maintenance

If you like the natural look of concrete but want it sealed, protected, and easier to keep clean, a grind and seal system is a great fit. I start by mechanically grinding the slab to knock down surface imperfections, remove glue or old coatings, and reveal the natural finish of the concrete beneath. Then I seal it with a high-performance coating that guards against moisture, staining, and everyday wear.

It’s not polished concrete, but it gives you a similar sleek, industrial feel without the added cost or multi-stage process. The end result is a clean, modern surface that works well in a wide range of spaces. I’ve installed grind and seal floors throughout Urbana and the surrounding area, including in home basements, garages, offices, and even creative spaces like yoga studios and local retail shops. It’s perfect when you don’t need a thick epoxy system but still want something finished, sealed, and easy to live with.

You can choose a satin or semi-gloss look depending on your style, and if you want a touch of color, I can tint the sealer without hiding the concrete’s natural texture. It’s cost-effective, low-maintenance, and a huge upgrade from bare, dusty slab.

If you’re in Urbana and want to give your concrete a fresh, refined look without overcomplicating the project, grind and seal might be the right call.

Concrete Sealing in Urbana IL: Lock Out Moisture, Keep the Look

If you like the look of raw concrete but want it sealed up and easier to live with, concrete sealing is the way to go. I start by mechanically grinding the surface to smooth out high spots, strip off any old coatings or residue, and expose the natural texture of the slab. From there, I apply a durable, commercial-grade sealer that keeps moisture out, blocks stains, and stands up to real-world use.

This isn’t polished concrete, and it’s not a full coating either. It sits in that sweet spot—giving you a clean, modern look without the cost or install time of more intensive systems. The finish is subtle, natural, and easy to maintain.

I’ve sealed concrete floors in Urbana basements, home gyms, workshops, and even light commercial settings across Central Illinois. It’s great for controlling dust, improving cleanability, and giving older surfaces a fresh, finished feel.

You can choose between a matte finish for a more natural look or go with satin if you want just a little extra sheen. Either way, concrete sealing is one of the most affordable, low-maintenance upgrades you can make to bare concrete. And as always, I do the work myself, so it’s prepped right and built to last.

What I Specialize In:

Real Floors for Real Use in Urbana IL

Every floor has its quirks, and I’ve seen just about all of them. After years in the field, I know exactly where epoxy coatings and sealed concrete make the biggest impact, and more importantly where they hold up for the long haul.

I don’t outsource the work or send in a crew you’ve never met. I handle every part of the job myself. That means I’m the one grinding, patching, coating, and finishing your floor. You’ll have one point of contact from start to finish, and one standard of quality—mine.

Most of the projects I complete around Urbana, Champaign, and throughout Central Illinois fall into the same category: garages, basements, workshops, and small commercial spaces where the floor actually gets put to work. Whether it’s moisture, dropped tools, muddy boots, or just the wild swing of Midwest weather, these slabs take a beating. I build floor systems that don’t flinch.

If you’re looking for something that looks sharp, holds up to daily use, and doesn’t leave you babysitting it, I’ll help you pick the system that fits—and I’ll make sure it’s done right the first time.

Garage Floor Coatings

In Urbana, garages pull double duty. They’re more than just a place to park. They’re home gyms, storage zones, workspaces, and often the busiest entry point into the house. If your garage floor is cracked, stained, or peeling, it’s time to upgrade to something built to last.

I install flake epoxy garage systems that can handle Central Illinois weather and real daily use. Every job starts with deep mechanical grinding to clean and open the slab. That removes any old coatings, sealers, or grime and gives the epoxy a solid surface to bond with. Then I apply a thick coat of industrial-grade epoxy, broadcast decorative flakes across the entire surface, and seal it with a polyaspartic topcoat that resists UV, chemicals, and heat.

This isn’t a cosmetic fix. It’s a serious upgrade. The coating won’t peel under hot tires or break down from road salt and oil. It cures quickly too, so most garage floors are ready for use in just a couple of days.

I’ve installed this system in homes all over Urbana, from older single-car garages to brand new multi-bay setups. There are plenty of flake blends and color options to choose from, and I’ll help you find one that fits your style and space.

If you want a garage floor that performs as well as it looks, I’ll make sure it’s done right from the start.

Basement Floor Coatings

& Concrete Finishes

Basement floors in Urbana and the surrounding Central Illinois towns come in all shapes and conditions. Some are smooth and freshly poured. Others are decades old, cracked, and rough enough to chew through a mop. No matter where your slab falls on that spectrum, I can help you turn it into something solid, sealed, and ready for real use.

If your basement needs protection from moisture and a clean, durable finish, I install full epoxy systems that seal the surface and hold up under daily use. Prefer a more natural look? A grind and seal system keeps the concrete’s raw character while adding a protective layer that reduces dust and makes cleanup easier.

Both options help solve the usual basement problems. We’re talking humidity, surface wear, and concrete that constantly sheds dust or absorbs spills. Whether it’s a home gym, rec room, storage space, or a new guest room, I’ll help you choose the right system based on how you use the space.

I’ve finished basement floors for homeowners throughout Urbana, from older homes near campus to newer builds on the edge of town. Every job starts with the right prep and ends with a floor that fits both your goals and your budget.

If your basement has been a rough storage zone or a space you avoid, it might be time to give it the upgrade it deserves. I’ll walk you through your options and make sure it’s done right.

Workshop & Utility Room Floors

If your space is where real work happens—tools clanging, machines running, grease spills, and messes made—you need more than a floor that just looks good. You need one that performs every single day without letting you down.

I install epoxy coatings and grind and seal systems in hardworking spaces throughout Urbana and across Central Illinois. That includes garages, home workshops, barns, laundry rooms, and utility areas that take a daily beating.

These aren’t showroom floors. They’re built to take impact, resist spills, and handle wear without flaking or falling apart. Every floor starts with full mechanical prep. I grind the surface, fix problem spots, and apply a system that bonds right and lasts long. No shortcuts. No weak points.

I’ve worked on backyard woodworking shops in Urbana, mechanic bays in nearby towns, and utility rooms on rural properties across the region. If you want extra grip, flake epoxy is a great choice. It hides dust and adds traction. For a simple, clean surface that’s easy to maintain, solid color epoxy works well in these environments too. Prefer to keep the concrete look? A grind and seal finish gives you that raw style with better protection and less dust.

No matter what kind of work you're doing, I’ll make sure your floor can handle it. Tough. Reliable. Built for your space.

Retail & Light

Commercial Spaces

In a business setting, your floor does more than just take foot traffic. It helps shape how customers see your space. Whether you run a boutique, salon, medical office, or creative studio in Urbana or the surrounding Central Illinois area, I install concrete coatings that look clean, hold up under pressure, and are easy to keep that way.

If you’re aiming for something bold that catches the eye, metallic epoxy delivers a sleek, custom finish that stands out. Want a more subtle, industrial look? A grind and seal finish gives you that polished concrete feel without the added cost or upkeep of a full polishing process. Both options offer great durability without sacrificing style.

I’ve worked with small business owners across Urbana and nearby towns who were tired of dealing with cracked concrete, outdated vinyl, or tile floors that never stay clean. The systems I install are seamless, grout-free, and low-maintenance. No wax. No specialty cleaners. Just a floor that performs and looks good doing it.

I handle everything from the surface prep to the final coat myself, so you don’t have to coordinate with multiple contractors or wonder who’s actually doing the work. If your commercial space needs a floor that works as hard as you do, I’ll make sure it’s done right from start to finish.

Why Homeowners and Business Owners in Urbana IL Trust Miller’s Epoxy Solutions

  • One Contractor. One Standard. Every Time.
    When you hire Miller’s Epoxy Solutions, you’re working directly with me—TJ. I live here in Central Illinois, and I don’t subcontract your job or hand you off to a sales team. I answer the phone, prep the concrete, and install the floor myself. That means no confusion, no runaround, and no excuses. Just straight answers and solid work from the first quote to the final coat.

  • Local Knowledge, Real-World Results
    I’ve worked on concrete all across Urbana, Springfield, Decatur, and the surrounding towns. I know what Central Illinois weather does to slabs, how salt and moisture wear things down, and what kind of prep it takes to make floors last through every season. This isn’t guesswork. It’s experience. And every system I install is chosen based on what works here, not just what looks good in a brochure.

  • A 15-Year Warranty That Means What It Says
    Every floor I put down comes with a 15-year warranty. No small print. No confusing conditions. I use industrial-grade coatings and take prep seriously—so I don’t get callbacks for failed floors. But if anything ever goes wrong, you won’t be stuck on hold. You’ll call me directly, and I’ll handle it.

  • Prep Comes First. No Exceptions.
    Let’s be honest—most coating failures happen because someone skipped prep. That’s not how I operate. I grind every slab with commercial-grade equipment, patch damage, clean it thoroughly, and make sure the surface is ready to bond. Skipping steps might save time, but it costs a lot more down the road. If you want a floor that holds up, it starts with how the slab is prepped—and I don’t cut corners.

Floors That Perform Where It Counts

Right Here in Urbana IL

Concrete around Urbana doesn’t get a break. Winter brings salt and slush, summer piles on the humidity, and the freeze-thaw cycles chew up slabs year after year. That’s why I don’t show up with a generic kit or a one-size-fits-all fix. I take a close look at your concrete, ask how you use the space, and build a system that makes sense for your needs. No gimmicks. No shortcuts. Just the right solution for the job.

I’ve restored garage floors in Urbana, sealed aging patios in Philo, refinished workshop slabs in St. Joseph, and cleaned up utility spaces in towns all over Central Illinois. Every job is different. The slab might be new or fifty years old, the budget might be tight or open-ended, but the goal is always the same—give you a clean, durable surface that holds up.

If your concrete is cracked, flaking, or just plain rough, there’s a good chance I’ve seen worse—and turned it into something solid. I’ll make sure your floor comes out looking sharp and ready to handle whatever life throws at it.
