Our Story
Founded in 2025, What It Takes was built on a simple belief: coating professionals deserve access to high-quality supplies, trusted products, and real industry support without compromise. We saw a need for a supplier that understood the daily demands of contractors, installers, and businesses working with epoxy flooring, concrete coatings, surface preparation, and decorative finishes.
In less than one year, What It Takes expanded to three California store locations, proudly serving customers through our Los Angeles, Garden Grove, and Sacramento branches. This rapid growth reflects our commitment to reliable service, professional-grade products, and expert guidance for contractors across Southern California, Northern California, and beyond.
Today, we continue to support coating professionals with the materials, tools, equipment, and product knowledge needed to complete projects with confidence. From local pickup to contractor support, What It Takes is here to help professionals get the right supplies for every job.
