Flake System Flooring · Tampa Bay, FL

Our Specialty: Full-Broadcast Flake Floors

Flake systems are what Apex Epoxy Coatings is known for. We install full-broadcast vinyl flake floors across Tampa Bay — Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco, and Sarasota Counties — garages, lanais, patios, walkways, and commercial spaces — with the dense, uniform, granite-like finish that only a true full broadcast delivers.

Full broadcast means we don’t sprinkle a few chips into wet epoxy and call it done. We grind and repair the concrete, lay the base coat, broadcast flake to complete coverage, scrape it smooth, and lock it in under a durable clear topcoat. The result is a thicker, tougher, better-looking floor than a light-broadcast shortcut will ever give you.

Beyond the looks, flake floors earn their keep: the texture adds slip resistance, the multi-tone blend hides dust and everyday dirt, and the sealed surface wipes clean instead of soaking up stains. With custom color blends to match your space, it’s the do-everything system — which is exactly why it’s our flagship.

Choosing a Pro

What to Look for in a Flake System Flooring Company

Full broadcast, not a sprinkle

Plenty of installers scatter a handful of chips and charge full-broadcast prices. Ask to see dense, edge-to-edge coverage in their photos — it’s the difference in both durability and looks.

Mechanical grinding, not acid etching

A flake floor is only as good as its bond. We diamond-grind every slab so the coating anchors into the concrete — acid-etch-and-pour is how floors end up peeling.

A quality clear topcoat

The topcoat takes the abuse. We finish with durable, premium-grade clears — with UV-stable options so outdoor floors don’t yellow in the Florida sun.

Real photos of their own work

What is a flake epoxy system?
It’s a multi-layer coating: a base coat over ground concrete, vinyl color flakes broadcast across the entire wet surface, then a durable clear topcoat. The flake gives it a granite-like look, added thickness, and slip-resistant texture.
Why choose flake over solid-color epoxy?
Flake hides dust, dirt, and small imperfections far better than a solid color, adds texture underfoot, and gives a more finished, decorative look. Solid color is cleaner and more minimal — we’ll help you pick based on the space.
Is a flake floor slippery?
The broadcast flake naturally adds texture, and we can adjust the level of grip with the topcoat — including more aggressive anti-slip for wet areas like pool surrounds and walkways.
Can flake systems go outdoors?
Yes — lanais, patios, walkways, and pool decks are some of our most common flake projects. Outdoors we finish with UV-stable topcoats built for the Florida sun so the floor doesn’t yellow.
What colors are available?
Flake comes in a huge range of blends — grays, tans, earth tones, bold mixes — and we’ll help you match your space. You pick the blend and finish when we quote the project.
How long does a flake floor take to install?
Most residential flake jobs take one to a few days depending on size and the condition of the concrete, plus cure time before heavy use. You’ll get an exact timeline with your free quote.
How much does a flake floor cost?
It depends on the square footage, the condition of the slab, and the finish you choose — so we price each job individually. Quotes are free, fast, and no-obligation: call (727) 423-5985 anytime.
