Garage floor concrete in Rogers AR - a slab planned around how you'll use it
Cracked, chipped or sinking garage floor? We'll tell you whether to resurface it or pour a new slab on a dug-out, packed base.
Garage floor concrete that starts underneathfor homes and rentals in Rogers
Most garage floor calls start with something you can see: a crack running across the slab, chipped and dusty spots where the tires sit, a corner that's sunk or water pooling by the door. We're based in Rogers and do garage floor concrete there and in plenty of the cities around it.
First I figure out whether your old floor is solid enough to resurface or whether it's time for a new slab. If you're thinking about a coating, heat or a car lift someday, tell me at the estimate, because those get planned before the concrete goes down.
The price mostly turns on the size of the floor, how much old concrete has to come out, how much the base needs and whether the slope beside the garage calls for concrete retaining walls. The schedule turns on the weather and on curing, the wait before the slab can take weight. You'll get your own figure at the estimate.
You'll know what's going under your new floor and what it costs before we start, so give us a call at (479) 413-0106.
Garage floor concrete jobs we take on
We start from what's there now, whether that's bare dirt, a cracked old slab or a floor that's worn but still solid, and how you plan to use the garage.
New slab on packed ground
Garage slabs run thicker than an indoor floor since they carry cars, and we dig out and pack the subgrade, the dirt under the slab, before we pour.
Tear-out and replacement
When the old floor has sunk or broken up, we break it out, haul it off and rebuild the base, so the new slab doesn't sit on the old problem.
Resurfacing a worn top
For a pitted, chipped or dusty top, resurfacing bonds a thin overlay to the old concrete so you keep the slab and get a fresh surface.
Broom finish or something more
Most garage floors get a broom finish, a light brushed texture for grip when it's wet. For color or pattern, look at our decorative concrete.
Why Rogers homeowners hire CJ Rogers Concrete Companyfor the slab under their cars
Working with us means plain talk about what your garage floor needs and what it doesn't, and a clear picture of the job from the estimate to the walkthrough.
The owner writes your estimate
I'm the one who comes out, looks at your garage and writes the estimate, and I'm out on the job with our own crew when it's poured.
In business since 2013
I learned the trade fixing settled and cracked concrete for a property management company around Rogers, then started this business in 2013 to do it right from the start.
Licensed and insured for your job
We're fully licensed and insured, which matters when a crew is breaking out old concrete and running equipment at your house.
The base comes before the finish
Nobody sees the base once we pour, so it's the first thing folks want to trim. I'd sooner cut the finish, since I've fixed plenty of floors where somebody skimped.
Talked through before you sign
I'd rather go over every part of the job up front than have anything catch you off guard later. Our work is backed by our satisfaction guarantee.

I come out, look at the floor with you, ask how you'll use the garage and write up an estimate that spells out what's included, like tear-out, hauling and prep.
Date, permits and base prep
If you want to go ahead, we set a date, take care of any permit work on our part, then dig out and pack the base and check where water will run.
Pour, finish and joints
We pour early enough to dodge the worst midday heat, which can leave a weak, dusty top, then finish the surface and cut the joints on time.
Walkthrough and care tips
When it's done, we walk the floor with you so you know how to look after it, including how long to wait before you walk on it and park on it.
Garage floor questions
How much does a new garage floor cost in Rogers, AR?
A reinforced concrete slab in Fayetteville, Arkansas usually costs about $7 to $11 per square foot before any staining or stamping. That's the market's usual range, not our price, and tearing out an old floor or rebuilding the base adds to it. I'll put your own figure in writing at the estimate.
Can I resurface my old garage floor instead of pouring a new one?
Yes, if the slab underneath is sound and stable, because an overlay only holds on concrete that isn't moving. If the floor has sunk or has cracks that keep growing, a new layer just covers the problem, and I'll tell you straight that it's time for a new slab.
How long does a new garage floor take before I can park on it?
Plan to park somewhere else for about a week. A new slab should be walkable within 48 hours, and waiting a week before driving a car onto it is the safe call while the concrete keeps curing for about a month.
Will my new garage floor crack like the old one?
No concrete floor is crack-proof, but properly planned control joints, lines cut into the slab so it cracks along them instead of across the middle, can control cracks and keep them small. Wire mesh won't stop cracking either, but it tends to keep cracks and joints from opening up, so I go over where the joints will go at the estimate.
How do I plan a garage floor for an epoxy coating or a car lift?
Tell us before the slab goes in, because what these need sits under or inside the concrete. A moisture barrier under the slab may be important if the garage will be coated, heated or cooled, or opens into living space, and for a two-post lift you'll want the lift maker's concrete requirements first, since lifts can call for a set thickness, strength and reinforcement. An epoxy or polyaspartic coating also waits on a check of moisture and surface texture, because a young floor can look dry and still not be ready to coat.
Do I need a permit for a new garage floor in Rogers, AR?
That's the city's call, and if your job needs one, I'll tell you at the estimate. Applications go through the city's online permitting portal, and the office behind it answers questions at 479-621-1100 or planreview@rogersar.gov.
