Garage Door Painting — Finish the Garage Top to Bottom

We're a coatings company with a painting company for a sister, so it's easy to have the door repainted while the floor cures. Steel, aluminum, fiberglass and wood doors, sprayed with the right primer and a durable exterior finish.

Our focus is concrete coatings, but the same day a floor goes in is the perfect time to fix the other thing everyone sees: a faded, chalking or peeling garage door. SwiftHand Painting has been spraying exterior finishes across Salt Lake County for years, and we bring that crew and that equipment to your garage so the door gets done right — masked, cleaned, primed and sprayed, not brushed.

Steel doors get a degreasing wash, a scuff, a bonding primer and a durable acrylic or urethane exterior topcoat. Wood doors are sanded, spot-primed and finished with paint or an exterior stain and clear. Fiberglass and aluminum doors need specific primers to hold paint, and we know which ones. We can also apply a faux wood-grain finish that turns a plain steel door into what looks like a $6,000 carriage door.

Bundle a door with your floor and we discount the door — one trip, one crew, one finished garage.

Why homeowners choose it

Spray finish

A sprayed door looks factory-finished; a brushed door looks painted.

Right primer, right door

Chalky steel, slick fiberglass and bare wood each need a different primer to hold paint. We use them.

Color-matched to your home

Match the trim, contrast the body, or go bold — we'll bring samples.

Faux wood-grain option

Turn a steel door into the look of stained cedar for a fraction of a new door.

Bundle discount

Door + floor in one visit saves money and hassle.

Full-house option

Want the whole exterior done? SwiftHand Painting handles it.

Our process

How the install goes

Every SwiftHand floor follows the same sequence. Skipping a step is how coatings fail, so we don't.

Free consultation or instant quote

Measure the space, check the slab for moisture and old coatings, pick a finish. You get a written price — online in minutes or in person.

Diamond grinding

We grind the concrete with dust-controlled diamond grinders to open the pores. Never acid etching, which is why our floors don't peel.

Repair & moisture check

Cracks, pits, spalls and control joints are filled with polyurea joint filler and mender, then ground flush. Moisture is tested before anything goes down.

Base coat

A pigmented polyurea/polyaspartic base coat is rolled on and wets into the ground concrete for a mechanical bond.

Flake or finish broadcast

Vinyl flake is broadcast to full rejection (or metallic, quartz or solid color applied), then scraped smooth once set.

UV-stable topcoat

A clear polyaspartic topcoat locks it all in — chemical, UV and hot-tire resistant. Walk on it that evening; park on it in about 48 hours.

FAQ

Questions we get about garage door painting

Can you paint a garage door the same day as the floor?

Usually yes — the door is masked and sprayed while the floor cures, or the day before. We coordinate the schedule so you're only without the garage once.

Do you paint the weatherstripping and hardware?

We mask hardware and glass, and paint or replace weatherstripping as needed. Hinges and tracks stay clean.

Will paint hold on a fiberglass or aluminum door?

Yes, with the correct bonding primer. That's the step DIY jobs skip, which is why they peel.

Can you do the whole exterior too?

Absolutely. SwiftHand Painting does interior, exterior and cabinet work across the same service area — ask for a combined quote.
