Coastal garages, lanais, and pool decks for one of Florida’s oldest towns — downtown bungalows to Dunedin Isles waterfront.
Dunedin is one of Florida’s oldest towns, and its floors span most of a century. Historic bungalows sit on the Scottish-named streets around downtown, since the city takes its name from the Gaelic for Edinburgh and neighborhoods like Loch Lomond, Brae-Moor, and Stirling Heights carry the heritage, while the postwar decades filled Fairway Estates and Spanish Trails with block ranches, and the canal streets of Dunedin Isles line up low-slung waterfront homes on St. Joseph Sound. The median Dunedin home dates to about 1976, so most garages here sit on slabs that are decades old, dusty, and never finished.
Apex Epoxy Coatings gives that concrete a finish built for the coast. We install garage floor epoxy, our flagship full-broadcast flake systems, metallic epoxy, and UV-stable lanai and pool deck coatings, plus commercial floors for the shops, restaurants, and breweries downtown. Salt air off the Sound and a high coastal water table make moisture testing the first step on every Dunedin job, so we diamond-grind, repair, and check the slab before any coating goes down.
Free, no-obligation quotes — and we answer the phone 24/7.
(727) 423-5985A Fairway Estates ranch from the 1960s, backing the old Dunedin golf course, has half a century of paint, stains, and hairline cracks in its garage slab. We grind it back to clean concrete, repair it, and rebuild it as a flake floor that hides dust and takes daily traffic. The bungalow blocks near downtown bring detached garages and carports on even older concrete, and the large lots of Spanish Trails and the waterfront homes of Dunedin Isles add lanais, entries, and pool decks that all want the same durable, sealed finish.
Outdoor space is where Dunedin lives, and the sun sets the rules. The city runs hot and bright, with July highs near 91 degrees and strong midday UV that ambers unprotected epoxy, so every lanai, patio, and pool deck we coat gets a UV-stable topcoat with slip-resistant texture for wet, barefoot use. Golf-cart neighborhoods and the Pinellas Trail put a lot of foot traffic across driveways and entries too, and a sealed flake surface handles it while staying easy to rinse clean.
Hurricane Helene brought Dunedin flooding the city said it had never recorded. Storm surge put boats up on the Dunedin Causeway and Edgewater Drive, flooded Causeway Plaza and much of the low ground west of Alternate 19, damaged the marina pier beyond repair, and pushed water into homes that had never taken it before. Concrete survives all of that; the finish rarely does. Flood-affected slabs get fully dried, moisture-tested, ground clean of salt and silt, and primed with moisture-tolerant products before coating.
A sealed epoxy floor will not stop the next surge, but it turns the cleanup into a wash-down instead of a demolition, which is why coated garages have become a standard step in the city’s rebuilt waterfront homes. Downtown Dunedin keeps its own character, with no chain stores, an award-winning restaurant and craft-beer scene anchored by Dunedin Brewery, Florida’s oldest distributing microbrewery, and the Toronto Blue Jays’ spring-training ballpark. We coat those commercial floors seamless and slip-aware, scheduled around business hours so the doors stay open.
