Installer Spotlight: AK Epoxy Flooring – Serving Southern Alberta

AK Epoxy Flooring is a Calgary-based concrete coating company that has been delivering premium epoxy and polyaspartic floor installations since 2012. Founded by Allan Kargard, a lifelong construction professional, AK Epoxy was built on a single conviction: rushed surface preparation is the root cause of most floor coating failures. The company serves homeowners, businesses, and commercial operators across Calgary and Southern Alberta with a methodical, prep-first approach that consistently delivers floors built to last for decades.

With over a decade of hands-on experience and a 15-year warranty backing every installation, AK Epoxy Flooring has earned a reputation as one of Calgary’s most trusted and reviewed floor coating contractors – rated 5/5 stars on Google and 100% recommended on Facebook by clients who consistently praise the professionalism, quality, and communication of the team.

Built on Preparation, Not Shortcuts

What separates AK Epoxy Flooring from most coating companies in Calgary comes down to one word: preparation. Allan Kargard was introduced to epoxy floor systems in 2011 and quickly identified that the industry’s biggest failure point wasn’t the products – it was shortcuts taken during surface prep. Inadequate grinding, skipped crack repairs, and rushed timelines lead to peeling, bubbling, and failed coatings that homeowners deal with far too soon after installation.

At AK Epoxy, every project begins with a thorough assessment of the concrete slab. The team uses diamond grinding and shot blasting to properly profile the surface, fills joints and repairs cracks before any coating is applied, and uses a deliberate 1.5-day installation structure to make sure nothing gets rushed. This approach isn’t just about doing a good job – it’s about doing the job once and having it last 20 or more years.

Coating Systems and Services

AK Epoxy Flooring specializes in polyaspartic and epoxy floor coating systems, offering a range of finishes suited to both residential and commercial environments. Their residential services include garage floor coatings, patio coatings, and basement floor coatings – all installed with the same prep-first methodology and backed by a 15-year warranty. On the commercial and industrial side, the company handles warehouse floors, retail spaces, showrooms, office floors, restaurants, and institutional facilities across Southern Alberta.

System offerings include decorative flake systems for a high-traction, visually appealing finish popular in garages; metallic epoxy for unique swirling effects favored in showrooms and retail; grind and seal for a polished concrete look; and solid color polyaspartic or epoxy systems for clean, bright industrial environments. They also provide self-leveling concrete and exterior concrete sealing for comprehensive property surface care.

Why Calgary Property Owners Choose AK Epoxy

Calgary’s climate is not easy on concrete floors. Freeze-thaw cycles, road salt tracked in from vehicles, and temperature swings between summer heat and deep winter cold all put significant stress on coatings that weren’t properly installed. AK Epoxy’s polyaspartic and epoxy systems are selected and installed to handle exactly these conditions, with materials that bond deeply to properly prepped concrete and resist moisture, salt, and thermal movement through years of real use.

The company’s reviews say it plainly. Customers consistently note how Allan and his crew show up on time, communicate throughout the project, keep the work area clean, and deliver exactly what was promised. When a small touch-up was needed after an installation, Allan came back on a Sunday to address it. That kind of accountability, combined with a 15-year warranty and transparent pricing, gives property owners genuine confidence in their investment.

Financing and Free Estimates

AK Epoxy Flooring offers flexible financing through Acorn Financing, making it easier for property owners to invest in a quality floor coating without paying the full amount upfront. All projects start with a free, no-pressure on-site estimate where Allan personally assesses the slab, recommends the right coating system, and provides clear pricing with honest timelines. There are no hidden fees and no hard selling – just straightforward guidance based on what your specific floor actually needs.
