## About Coastal Spaces

Coastal Spaces is a locally owned team based in Southport and Wilmington, North Carolina, serving New Hanover, Pender, and Brunswick counties. The company specializes in garage transformations — floor coatings, Lifestyle screens, motorized screens, and custom storage — all delivered from one company with upfront pricing.

Coastal Spaces grew out of Overhead Door Company of Wilmington, which provides the operational foundation for the business.

Every product the company installs is selected for coastal conditions: salt air, humidity, sandy foot traffic, and hurricane season. The focus is products that hold up in southeastern NC, not just look good on day one.

## Polyaspartic Garage Floor Coatings

Engineered for the slab, not just the look — built for coastal NC moisture and salt air.

### Why coastal NC floors require a different approach

In coastal North Carolina, concrete slabs face a unique challenge: high moisture vapor transmission. Because the water table is so high and the soil remains damp, moisture is constantly trying to push through a garage's concrete floor from the ground up.

When a standard coating is applied without a proper barrier, this moisture gets trapped. Over time, the pressure builds, leading to peeling, bubbling, and total floor failure. Most "peeling" floors aren't actually caused by hot tires — they are destroyed from underneath by moisture failure.

Coastal Spaces' standard system uses a high-performance moisture-resistant base coat on every job — engineered to handle the vapor transmission common in coastal NC slabs. When moisture testing shows elevated emission rates, a full MVB (Moisture Vapor Barrier) primer is added before anything else goes down.

### Standard Polyaspartic Flake System

- Mechanical surface prep (industrial diamond grinding)
- Moisture-resistant HyperBOND base coat
- Decorative flake broadcast
- High-build UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat
- MVB primer added when moisture testing warrants it

**Best for:** Homeowners who want the highest-quality long-term finish for their coastal home.

**Starting at $12.50/sqft.**

### What you get

- **Moisture protection built in.** Every standard system uses a moisture-resistant base coat, with full MVB primer added when testing warrants it.
- **Safe and easy to clean.** Slip-resistant finish that stays safe when wet and wipes clean with a mop. Additional texture options available.
- **UV-stable coastal durability.** Polyaspartic topcoat won't yellow or fade — fully UV-stable, which matters in coastal NC.
- **Immediate visual upgrade.** Transforms a dusty concrete slab into a finished, functional space.

### Available flake colors

12 vinyl flake color options, all 1/4" flake size: Domino, Orbit, Outback, Stony Creek, Rapids, Frostbite, Comet, Black Ice, Talus, Dolerite, Woodpecker, Charlotte. (Torginol vinyl flakes.)

### Process

1. **Free phone consultation** — Talk through the space, recommend the right system for the home and budget.
2. **On-site measurement and quote** — Visit, measure, test the slab, and provide upfront pricing.
3. **Professional installation** — One point of contact handles everything from prep through final coat.

### FAQ

**What is a Moisture Vapor Barrier and why does it matter in coastal NC?**
An MVB is a specialized primer that prevents moisture trapped in coastal concrete from pushing upward and delaminating the floor coating. In NC's high-humidity environment, skipping this step often leads to bubbling and peeling over time. Coastal Spaces' standard system includes a moisture-resistant base coat on every job, with full MVB primer added when slab testing warrants it.

**Why polyaspartic instead of epoxy?**
Epoxy was the standard for years, but it doesn't hold up well in coastal conditions. UV light breaks it down, the finish yellows over time, and moisture vapor pushing up through the slab — common on the sandy, high-water-table lots throughout New Hanover, Pender, and Brunswick — attacks the bond from below. Polyaspartic stays flexible through temperature swings, is fully UV-stable, and with an MVB primer bonds reliably even on slabs with elevated vapor transmission.

**How long does installation take?**
Most installs are completed in two days. Day one is mechanical surface prep and the moisture-resistant base coat. Day two is the decorative flake broadcast and high-build polyaspartic topcoat, with the proper cure window between layers.

**How soon can I park on the floor after installation?**
Light foot traffic at 12 hours, regular vehicle traffic at 24 hours, heavy equipment at 48 hours — based on standard conditions at 75°F. Cure times can vary with coastal NC humidity and temperature.

**How do I maintain a polyaspartic floor coating?**
The surface is non-porous and slip-resistant. Most dust and sand can be blown out with a leaf blower. For a deeper clean, mop with water and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner.

**Will it work on my existing concrete — even with cracks or stains?**
Yes. Prep includes industrial diamond grinding to remove stains and open the concrete pores for adhesion. Surface cracks and pits are assessed during the on-site visit.

**What does it cost?**
Pricing depends on total square footage and slab condition. Call 910-877-1748 for a free phone consultation and accurate quote.

## Lifestyle Garage Screens

Turn a garage into a screened outdoor living space — bug-free, breeze-cooled, and built for coastal NC.

**Starting at $2,950.**

### How it works

The Lifestyle Screen stores overhead, just below the existing garage door, and works seamlessly with the existing door setup. When not in use, the screen lifts completely out of the opening so the garage functions normally. When lowered, the garage becomes a shaded, ventilated, bug-free outdoor living space in seconds — no remodel, no garage function lost.

**Note on clearance:** Installing a Lifestyle Screen reduces the garage's headroom by roughly 11". Tall vehicles or golf carts that already fit tight should be checked for clearance before scheduling.

### What you get

- **Bug protection.** Keeps out mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and gnats while maintaining full visibility.
- **Coastal breeze.** Coastal air without the trapped heat of a closed garage door.
- **Usable square footage.** Adds usable space for entertaining, kids, or pets — without expanding the home's footprint.
- **Normal garage function.** When retracted, the garage operates normally for most standard vehicles.

### Materials and durability

The frame is aluminum and the screen is PVC, providing durability in salt air and humid environments where standard screens often fail. The system is built for the Carolina coast.

### Process

1. **Free phone consultation** — Talk through the space, confirm Lifestyle Screens are a fit before anyone drives out.
2. **On-site measurement and quote** — Local team visits to take measurements and provide an upfront, fixed-price quote.
3. **Professional installation** — Complete install of screen, hardware, and integration with the existing garage door setup. Most installs complete in a single day.

### FAQ

**How do Lifestyle Screens work?**
A retractable screen that is manually raised and lowered. Creates a bug-free living space; retracts up out of the way when not in use.

**Can I still park my car in the garage?**
Yes. The garage still functions normally for vehicle storage. The screen system is designed to work alongside the regular garage door.

**How long does installation take?**
Most installations complete in a single day, depending on project complexity.

**Will it work with my existing garage door?**
Yes. Lifestyle Screens are designed to integrate with almost any standard garage door system without compromising operation.

**How does it hold up to coastal weather, wind, and salt air?**
Built for the Carolina coast. Aluminum frame and PVC screen, durable in salt air and humid environments where standard screens often fail.

**What does it cost?**
Costs vary by garage size and selected options. Starting at $2,950. Call 910-877-1748 for a direct quote.

**What warranty is included?**
All systems include the standard manufacturer warranty covering defects and performance. Specific terms confirmed at installation.

## Garage Slatwall Storage

Not a standard wood slatwall — laminated PVC built specifically for coastal NC moisture, humidity, and salt air.

**Starting at $32/sqft.**

### Why coastal NC garages need PVC slatwall

Standard wood and MDF slatwall systems aren't built for the coastal NC environment. The persistent moisture, high humidity, and salt air common in the Wilmington and Southport area cause porous materials to warp, swell, and eventually fail.

Laminated PVC is a different material entirely — waterproof and moisture-resistant by design. It won't absorb humidity, won't warp in salt air, and won't deteriorate behind the panels where you can't see it. For coastal NC garages, it's the right material choice.

### System specs

- Laminated PVC wall panels — waterproof, scratch-resistant, multiple finish options
- 450 lb+ load capacity per panel
- Universal 3" on-center slots — works with hooks, shelves, baskets, and brackets
- 90+ accessory options — bikes, tools, lawn gear, sports equipment, and more
- Lock-in/lock-out accessories — reposition anything without tools
- 100 lb+ capacity per hook, shelf, or bracket
- Mounts to studs, concrete, or drywall (drywall-only mounting reduces weight capacity)
- Professional measurement, layout, and installation

### Storage zones

- **Bikes and sporting equipment** — heavy-duty hooks for bikes plus storage for balls, bats, and gear bags
- **Power and hand tools** — hooks and brackets keep tools off the workbench and within reach
- **Lawn and garden gear** — secure storage for shovels, trimmers, and hoses
- **Beach and water gear** — hooks and brackets for fishing rods, kayak paddles, wetsuits, and beach gear
- **Holiday and seasonal items** — baskets and deep shelves for seasonal bins
- **General organization** — high-capacity shelving for everyday essentials

### Process

1. **Free phone consultation** — Talk through storage needs, wall space, and layout.
2. **On-site measurement and quote** — Walk the garage walls, map the layout, spec the right panel and accessory configuration. Firm price before scheduling.
3. **Professional installation** — Panels, accessories, and final layout handled start to finish.

### FAQ

**What is slatwall and how does it work?**
A high-capacity wall organization system using universal 3" on-center slots. Waterproof laminated PVC panels mount to studs, concrete, or drywall, creating a surface that holds hooks, shelves, and baskets which can be repositioned easily without tools.

**Why PVC instead of wood slatwall for coastal NC?**
Standard wood or MDF slatwall absorbs moisture in humid coastal environments, leading to warping and panel failure. Laminated PVC is waterproof and moisture-resistant — the durable choice for coastal NC garages.

**How much weight can the system hold?**
Over 450 lbs per panel. Individual hooks, shelves, or brackets safely support over 100 lbs each.

**Can the accessories be moved after installation?**
Yes. Over 90 accessory options include lock-in/lock-out mechanisms — reposition any hook, shelf, or basket anytime without tools.

**Will it work on my existing garage walls?**
Yes. Panels secure to standard wall studs, concrete, or finished drywall. Drywall-only mounting reduces weight capacity.

**What does it cost?**
Pricing depends on wall square footage and accessory layout. Starting at $32/sqft. Call 910-877-1748 for a free consultation and quote.
