Prairie Garages and Farm Shops
Epoxy flooring in Fowler goes down on floors that face open country. Fowler sits on the prairie of Benton County at about 820 feet, and the county is classified as 100% rural in the 2020 census. Wind turbines line the horizon. The Fowler Ridge Wind Farm alone has 355 turbines with 600 MW of nameplate capacity. Out here, a lot of the concrete we coat is in a pole barn or machine shed as well as the house garage.
Cold that tests a coating
Benton County's average January low is 13°F, and the record low is -24°F, set in January 1999. Cold like that matters for coatings in two ways.
- Install timing. Epoxy and polyaspartic products need the slab within a set temperature range to cure. In an unheated building we schedule for warmer weeks or plan to heat the space.
- Salt and slush. US 52 and State Roads 18 and 55 run through town, and winter road treatment comes home on every truck. A sealed floor keeps that brine off the concrete.
Farm shops and pole barns
Benton County's land is mostly given over to agriculture, and plenty of Fowler households keep a shop on the property. These floors see tractors, combines, grease and hydraulic fluid. For them we recommend Shop & Commercial Floor Epoxy. It goes on thicker than a garage coat and handles rolling loads and chemical spills. We add texture so the floor is safer when it is wet or dusty.
If a shop floor has big control-joint cracks or broken areas from years of heavy equipment, our Concrete Crack & Floor Repair work comes first. We do not coat over a slab that is heaving or still moving. We will tell you if that is what we find.
Town homes in a county seat
Moses and Eliza Fowler platted the town on October 26, 1872, and it became the Benton County seat in 1874. The Benton County Courthouse, the Fowler Theatre and the Fraser & Isham Law Office are all on the National Register. Older homes near the center of town often have basements and detached garages with worn concrete. Garage Floor Epoxy or an Epoxy Flake Floor gives those spaces a clean, sealed surface. Basement Floor Epoxy over a moisture-tested primer suits basements used for laundry or storage.
Faster turnaround during busy seasons
If the shop is needed for planting or harvest, ask about Polyaspartic Floor Coating. It cures faster than standard epoxy, so the building is back in service sooner. We can also coat a shop in sections to keep part of it open.
Keeping a shop floor clean
Farm shops collect grain dust, mud and chaff. A coated floor lets you sweep and squeegee instead of scrubbing bare concrete. We suggest a lighter color in a shop so dropped bolts and small leaks are easy to spot. Floor drains and trench drains can be coated around, and we seal the edges so water does not get under the coating.
How the estimate works
We come out, measure the floor, test it for moisture, and look at cracks, oil and old coatings. You get a written quote with every step listed. Nothing changes without a written change order you approve.

Fowler Questions
Can you coat my pole barn floor in Fowler during winter?
Only if the slab can be kept warm enough for the product to cure. In an unheated building we usually schedule for warmer weeks. In a heated shop, winter work is often possible.
Will a coating hold up to a tractor or combine?
Our shop-grade epoxy is built for heavy rolling loads and fluid spills. Very heavy equipment and steel tracks can still wear any coating over time, and we will talk through that at the estimate.
Can you coat only part of my shop?
Yes. Many owners coat the work bay and leave storage areas bare. We grind a clean edge so the coating finishes neatly.
