Several years ago The Garage Authority did a polyurea floor in my garage and then returned and did my front porch. I have been so happy with the beauty, durability, and ease of cleaning that I asked about the possibility of doing my bathroom floor during a recent bath remodel. Mike, the installer, looked at my floor and said most definitely! The process took three days and at the conclusion, I couldn't be happier. My remodeling contractor, who had never seen this floor application done anywhere but a garage, was amazed. There is no grout, water resistant, a wide selection of colors, and very easy to maintain. Thank you to Mike, business owner Nancy, and all the crew at The Garage Authority. Very happy customer!

The Garage Authority was contracted to install a polyurea flake flooring in my two car garage and I could not be happier with the completed job! In fact, the finished floor is so nice that I have asked The Garage Authority to come back and apply the finish to my concrete front porch floor.

We are sorry to learn of this. We had staff changes at the end of 2018, and your request was likely "lost in the shuffle." We sincerely apologize. If you will call us, we will be happy to resolve this issue and assist you in anyway we can.

Description of Work: We had about 12' of shelving installed along with a collapsible work bench. The material is all good quality and the install happened on time. I think the shelving system is a great concept but will take time for us to get benefit from it. |There was a call each time someone was on the way to the house with an ETA. I worked with the Nancy (sales) and the person who actually did the install. Both were very helpful and professional. I would recommend them to anyone.

We recently decided to have our garage floor coated and to have shelves installed. We contacted The Garage Authority. After a visit from Nancy, when she did a very thorough job of evaluating and making recommendations specific to our needs, we selected Garage Authority to do the work. We opted for the polyurea flooring system and shelving to suit our needs. We are convinced that the preparatory diamond grinding of the concrete floor results in much better coating adhesion and longevity than does the commonly used acid wash. The shelving is superior to anything else we have seen and is extremely flexible with the available array of shelf, bar and hook choices. It has allowed us to bring order out of chaos in the garage. The work is now complete, the garage looks beautiful and we are elated with the results.
Description of Work: (1) Prepped and applied epoxy coating on garage floor, (2) Installed storage shelves in garage.

We are very happy with the garage. Everything has a place now - no more clutter. Garage Authority was a delight to work with. Everyone we encountered, from Nancy (sales), to the men who did the work to the owner (who also did a lot of the work) was professional, knowledgeable and courteous. The garage looks fantastic and is now one of our favorite spaces in our home.

Monkeybars Inc. did a fine job with my epoxy flooring, the finish and color are outstanding!! They were on time as scheduled, and did exactly what I ask in relation to the floor. I would recommend, and use them again, although the cost was a little higher than expected, but then, I'm sure I don't keep up with the "going rate" either?

I have 20 large totes on the shelving unit. The brackets are powder coated and very durable allowing the shelves to hold 1,000 pounds every 2 feet and they look great too. The cabinets are laminate pressed fiberboard but they look good and should last a long time and provide the needed storage for us in the garage. I am having this company do additional work for me in a couple weeks. That should suffice as a recommendation. The products is great quality, the workmanship is wonderful and it all comes at an affordable price for what you get.
Description of Work: Installed three (3) cabinets; 18 feet of 24 inch wide overhead shelving; and 19 feet of laminated work counter. The laminated counter top was special ordered and it looks great.

As stated above, the overall experience was top-notch.
Description of Work: We downsized to a new home with limited storage space, no basement. Needed to utilize the garage and our neighbor recommended Monkeybars. Daniel personally came to the house, gave a professional presentation of his products and services with no hint of the "hard sell". We signed the contract that day, he promised a 2 week turn-around, and arrived with his crew exactly as promised. Installed in one day, work done quickly and professionally. Quality is top notch and would have no issue recommending Monkeybars to anyone.

We had some foundation work done on the corner of our house which left us with an additional small storage room adjoining our laundry room. The floor was a little uneven and there were a couple small cracks and we wanted to tie the two rooms together. We contacted MonkeyBars of WNC and were promptly given a date for the estimate - they were on time, professional and very helpful. We decided to have a Polyurea floor installed which is a bit more expensive but considerably more durable. I am so happy that I decided to have professional installation instead of attempting this myself since the machinery necessary to prep the floor was very specialized. We chose the sample that we liked, were promised an installation date and time and had a new floor in on that date. They left an industrial exhaust fan to clear out any residual fumes and returned the next morning to pick up the equipment and to see that we were happy with the results - even helped move our washer and dryer back into place. The floor has a 10 year guarantee - if anything needs repaired within that time period, the work and labor are free. We are SO happy with the company, the friendly installers and the results - an amazingly beautiful, durable and seamless floor. couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: Laundry and storage room concrete floors were prepped with a large carbide grinder and smaller hand grinders, all dust was vacuumed and removed, door thresholds were taped, polyurea floor installed in multiple coats of polyurea. Speckled chips were added and a final clear coat was applied to completely seal the floor.
