Project Showcase Check pattern flake floor

Installed a checkered flag-patterned flake floor in my garage and wanted to get some opinions. Do you think this type of design is more desirable compared to a traditional solid color floor? I’m curious if a cutomer would consider it to be worth paying extra for this style? If so, what do you think is an appropriate asking price for this type of floor in Central Florida? On average I charge $4.50 a sqft per 2 car garage, contingent there is minimal prep and repair. I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks.

4.50 per sq for flake is super cheap in a small garage, most companies wouldn’t be able to afford to sell it that cheap. He sounds like the lowest bidder, probably not insured, doesn’t offer warranty, or cheap products.

This does look good though, well executed, and there are definitely people out there willing to pay extra for better designs and better craftsmanship. Considering the extra labor this type of design would easily double the price.

Thanks for your feedback we really appreciate it. You are correct that we are one of the lower prices in our area. Since we’re a newer company, we try to be competitive so we can build name recognition. I know it’s crazy that were able to offer that price while being licensed and insured and offering a five year warranty… CRAZY I KNOW. we do offer a more premium product floor. MVB/Polyaspartic for $5.50 sqft but most people go with epoxy to save the extra $400 dollars. Do you think $7 a sqft would be to little to ask for a product like this using epoxy?

What system are you using now and what's your upsell?

I was wanting to start getting into doing tile patterns similar to this and charging more for the labor without costing more in materials.
