Older Garages in a Working Town
Epoxy flooring in Burbank frequently means bringing a 1940s or 1950s garage back to life. Over 62% of Burbank's housing stock dates from before 1970, and Magnolia Park filled up with homes for returning World War II veterans between 1945 and 1950. Those slabs have carried cars, tools and hobbies for 70-plus years. Many are still solid underneath; they just need careful prep before a coating will hold.
What 75 years does to a slab
Postwar garage floors were often poured without the vapor barriers common today. Over the decades they collect oil, paint, efflorescence and patch jobs. Before we quote, we grind a test area, check for moisture and look for hollow-sounding spots. If old paint or sealer is present, it has to come off. A coating applied over a weak surface layer fails along with it.
A dry water table helps
One useful local detail: across most of Burbank, the water table sits more than 100 feet down. That does not promise a dry slab, because irrigation, drainage and the age of the concrete still matter, but it does mean deep groundwater is rarely the cause of a moisture problem here. When readings run high, we look first at surface water sources and the slab itself.
Valley heat
The local airport station averages close to 89 degrees on August afternoons, and Burbank has hit 114 several times, most recently in September 2024. Hot slabs shorten working time. We work early, keep product cool, and favor polyaspartic or urethane topcoats that will not soften or fade on a sun-facing garage floor.
Horses, studios and side projects
The Rancho Equestrian District is zoned for horses, and its barns, tack rooms and wash areas see water, manure and hooves. Those floors need texture and a coating that can take regular hosing. Across town, Warner Bros. and Disney anchor a studio economy, and about 150,000 people work in Burbank each day. Set-building shops, camera rental storage and home workshops all ask for tough, easy-clean concrete. We size the system and texture to the actual use.
Burbank Details We Plan For
- Older housing stock. More than 62% of Burbank's housing was built before 1970, and Magnolia Park tracts went up between 1945 and 1950.
- Deep water table. Most of the city has a water table more than 100 feet below the surface, so slab moisture usually comes from other sources.
- Repeated record heat. Burbank has reached 114 F on several dates, including July 2018, September 2020 and September 2024.
- Horse-zoned district. The Rancho Equestrian District allows residents to keep horses and includes about 785 single-family homes.

Burbank Questions
Is my 1940s Burbank garage floor too old to coat?
An old slab is not automatically disqualified. We test for moisture, check how sound the surface is and remove old paint or sealers. Most older slabs can be coated after proper grinding and repair.
Can you coat a barn or wash rack in the Rancho area?
Yes. We use a textured finish so hooves and boots have grip, and a system that tolerates frequent water. We will also look at drainage before recommending anything.
Why would my slab show moisture if the water table is deep?
Sprinklers, poor drainage, slab age and a missing vapor barrier can all push moisture up. That is why we test every slab rather than assume.
What finish suits a studio or set-building shop?
Usually a thicker epoxy base, a topcoat that resists chemicals, and some grit. Paint, solvents and rolling carts are common, so we plan for all three.
