A family business on Vancouver Island

Treadstone Coatings is a family business based in Nanoose Bay, founded by Trevor Dawes and co-founder Cristi in 2021. The people who quote your project are the people who install it.

How we got here

Treadstone started in 2021. During the pandemic, Trevor Dawes began building epoxy fire tables in the garage, and that turned into a floor coatings business: epoxy and polyaspartic floors for garages, basements and shops from Victoria to the north island.

On almost every garage job, someone asked about the driveway. Concrete was the usual answer, and we'd seen too many island driveways crack along the same lines to recommend it with a straight face. Then we found Vuba Stone, a resin-bound system built for wet, freeze-thaw weather like ours. We did the research, trained with Vuba and became certified installers in 2026.

Outdoor resin-bound work is newer for us than floors, and we won't pretend otherwise. What carries over is how we work: careful prep, honest quotes and the same family answering the phone.

Treadstone is Baeumler Approved, insured and covered by WorkSafeBC.

  • “Trevor with Treadstone did an excellent job on my garage. Transformed from ugly cracked concrete to a real showroom. I found Trevor hard working, got the job done on time with no delays and left a clean site. Have had no hesitation in recommending him to my friends and neighbours.”

  • “Trevor did our huge double garage and it came out far beyond expectations. The polyaspartic floor is warm to walk on, a breeze to clean and it looks beautiful. Trevor was professional, knowledgeable, punctual and he went above and beyond in completing our garage. …”

  • “Trevor transformed both our garage and crawlspace floors from cracked dusty concrete to epoxied works of art! … Trevor was easy to work with and showed up when he said he would. Fair price for work that has elevated the look of our home and covered up ugly concrete settling cracks. …”

What you can count on

Big driveway or a short garden path, the way we work doesn't change.

  • The price we quote is the price you pay

    If something changes mid-job, we talk to you before we do anything about it. No surprise extras on the invoice.

  • Our crew does the work

    The people on your driveway are Treadstone, not a subcontractor you've never met.

  • We tell you the trade-offs

    It costs more up front than concrete and needs a dry day to install. If it isn't the right fit, we'll say so.

  • We're easy to reach afterwards

    Fully insured, and the same family answers the phone after the job is done.

Floors indoors, too

Treadstone also installs epoxy and polyaspartic floors for garages, basements and shops, and we're an authorized Garage Living dealer for garage cabinets and storage on Vancouver Island. Visit treadstonecoatings.ca
