Installer Spotlight: AK Epoxy Flooring – Serving Calgary and Southern Alberta

AK Epoxy Flooring has been making Calgary’s concrete floors something worth showing off since 2012. Founded by Allan Kargard, a lifelong construction professional who got tired of watching floors fail from rushed prep work, the company was built on a single idea: do it right the first time. Since then, AK Epoxy has installed thousands of square feet of polyaspartic and epoxy coatings across Calgary and Southern Alberta, earning a loyal following of residential and commercial clients who value quality over speed.

What sets AK Epoxy apart isn’t just the materials they use – it’s how they approach every project. Allan and his team take concrete preparation seriously, using diamond grinding, shot blasting, and joint repair before a drop of coating touches the floor. That attention to the foundation is what keeps their work looking sharp and holding up years after install.

Built on Preparation, Not Shortcuts

Most floor coating failures trace back to the same root cause: poor surface prep. AK Epoxy Flooring was built specifically to address that problem. Allan saw too many inferior installs in his construction career – coatings that peeled within a year, bubbled under moisture, or cracked under daily use – and he knew the fix was straightforward: slow down and prepare the slab properly.

Their 1.5-day install structure is intentional. Rather than rushing a one-day job that may look fine at first but fail within a few years, AK Epoxy builds in proper cure time so materials bond correctly with the concrete. Every project starts with a thorough slab assessment, followed by mechanical grinding or shot blasting, crack and joint repair as needed, and then the coating system installation. The result is a floor built to last decades, not just a few seasons.

Coating Systems for Every Space

AK Epoxy Flooring offers a full range of coating systems tailored to each client’s needs. For residential homeowners, their most popular option is polyaspartic flake flooring for garage floors – a high-performance coating that handles Calgary’s freeze-thaw cycles, road salt, and vehicle traffic with ease. They also install solid colour polyaspartic systems, metallic epoxy floors for a more decorative look, and grind-and-seal finishes for those who want to showcase the natural concrete beneath.

For commercial and industrial clients, AK Epoxy installs durable epoxy systems designed for warehouses, retail showrooms, restaurants, offices, and public facilities. These systems are chosen for their resistance to heavy traffic, chemical exposure, and long-term wear. Whether a client needs a seamless commercial floor or a decorative residential space, AK Epoxy matches the right system to the environment.

A Reputation Built One Floor at a Time

AK Epoxy Flooring has earned consistent five-star reviews from homeowners and business owners across Calgary. Customers regularly comment on Allan’s responsiveness, his team’s professionalism, and the quality of the finished product. One reviewer noted the experience was “flawless from start to finish,” while another highlighted that Allan came back on a Sunday to touch up a few small areas – the kind of follow-through that’s rare in the trades.

The company backs every installation with a 15-year warranty, which reflects how confident they are in their process. When you control the prep, the materials, and the install quality end-to-end, you can afford to stand behind your work. That warranty isn’t just a selling point – it’s a reflection of how the company operates on every single project.
