Mount Vernon is the Posey County seat, 19 miles west of Evansville on the Ohio River. Its 3,095 housing units have a median build year of 1968, and about 66.6% are owner-occupied. Across Posey County, the median home is from 1976 and 82.3% of homes are owner-occupied. In town, that means a lot of garages are well over 50 years old, with concrete that's seen decades of hard use.
It's also a working town, home to the CountryMark refinery and a coal port. If your garage doubles as a workspace, with trucks, tools, jacks and fluids on the floor, the concrete takes a beating. Bare concrete soaks up oil and chemicals, and older slabs dust and pit. A coating gives you a sealed surface that wipes clean and stands up to dropped tools and rolling equipment far better than raw concrete.
The river is the third factor. Flood stage at Mount Vernon is 35 ft, and the April 2025 crest was forecast at about 49 ft. If your garage took on water, or your lot stays wet in spring, ask for a moisture test before coating. A moisture barrier primer, about $1 per sq ft extra, helps prevent blistering, and a coated floor is far easier to clean out after muddy water than bare concrete.
Coatings that suit Mount Vernon garages and shops
If you run your garage like a shop, take a look at commercial and shop floor epoxy. Thicker build coats, chemical-resistant topcoats and optional safety striping are typical upgrades. For everyday family garages, a flake garage floor coating adds texture for grip and hides dirt between cleanings. On older or flood-stained slabs, start with thorough concrete prep and crack repair. Oil-soaked concrete has to be cleaned and ground before any coating will bond.

Mount Vernon garage floor FAQ
Can a coating handle oil and fluids in a Mount Vernon work garage?
Yes, when the floor is prepped well. Old oil has to be degreased and ground out first, or the coating can lose its bond. After that, a sealed epoxy or polyaspartic surface keeps new spills on top, where you can wipe them up. Ask about chemical-resistant topcoats if you work with fuels or solvents regularly.
My garage got water during the April 2025 river flooding. What should I do before coating?
Let the slab dry completely, clean off silt and residue, and ask for a moisture test. If readings are high, a moisture barrier primer, typically about $1 per sq ft extra, helps the coating stay bonded. Any cracks or flaking left after the water went down should be repaired during prep.
