How We Handle Your Floor Project
We start with proper surface preparation – the foundation of any lasting epoxy job. This means cleaning, repairing cracks, and creating the right surface profile for maximum adhesion. No shortcuts here. Next comes the primer application, which chemically bonds to your concrete. This isn’t a step you can skip if you want results that last years, not months. The epoxy coating goes on in carefully controlled conditions. Temperature, humidity, and timing all matter. We monitor everything to ensure proper curing and maximum durability. Most projects take 2-3 days, depending on size and complexity. You’ll know exactly what to expect before we start.

What's Included in Your Project
Every epoxy floor coating project includes thorough surface preparation, crack repair, primer application, and your choice of epoxy system. We use 100% solid epoxy for maximum durability – not the water-based products that fail within a few years. New Baltimore’s industrial facilities often need specific performance characteristics. Chemical resistance for manufacturing operations. Slip resistance for safety compliance. Fast cure times to minimize downtime. We match the coating system to your actual needs, not just what’s cheapest. You also get clear communication throughout the project. We explain what we’re doing and why, keep you updated on progress, and make sure you know exactly when you can return to normal operations. No surprises.

How long does epoxy floor coating last in commercial applications?

Professional-grade epoxy floor coating typically lasts 10-20 years in commercial and industrial settings when properly applied. The key factors are surface preparation, using 100% solid epoxy rather than water-based products, and proper application conditions. Water-based epoxy from big box stores might last 2-3 years before peeling and failing. That’s why we use commercial-grade materials and proven application techniques. The upfront investment in quality pays off in durability and reduced maintenance costs over time. Your floor is an investment in your business operations. Cheap solutions cost more in the long run through constant repairs and replacements.
Epoxy paint is a thin coating, usually water-based, that sits on top of concrete. It’s what you find at home improvement stores. Professional epoxy coating penetrates into the concrete and forms a chemical bond with the surface. The thickness difference is significant – professional coatings are typically 10-20 times thicker than epoxy paint. This means better chemical resistance, impact resistance, and longevity. Professional coatings also include proper primers and surface preparation that epoxy paint skips. For commercial and industrial applications, the performance difference is dramatic. Paint chips and peels under heavy use. Professional coating handles forklift traffic, chemical spills, and daily wear without failing.
Proper surface preparation is critical for epoxy adhesion and longevity. We start by removing all existing coatings, oils, and contaminants using diamond grinding equipment. This creates the right surface profile for maximum bond strength. Any cracks or damage get repaired with specialized epoxy compounds before coating. We also test for moisture issues that could cause coating failure. The concrete surface must be completely clean and properly profiled before any primer or coating application. This preparation work takes time but it’s what separates professional results from DIY failures. Skipping these steps is why many epoxy jobs fail within the first year. We don’t cut corners on prep work.
Generally no, existing coatings need to be removed for proper adhesion. Old paint, sealers, or failed epoxy create a weak layer that will cause the new coating to fail. We see this frequently with DIY epoxy jobs that were applied over existing coatings. The removal process uses specialized diamond grinding equipment to get down to clean concrete. This might seem like extra work, but it’s essential for a coating that will last decades rather than months. In rare cases, if an existing coating is perfectly bonded and compatible, we might be able to apply over it. But this requires careful evaluation and testing. Most of the time, complete removal and proper surface preparation is the only reliable approach for lasting results.
Most epoxy floor coatings cure enough for foot traffic within 24-48 hours, depending on the specific product and environmental conditions. Full cure for heavy equipment and chemical resistance typically takes 5-7 days. We plan projects to minimize your downtime. This often means working weekends or scheduling around your operational needs. The exact timeline depends on the coating system, ambient temperature, and humidity levels. We’ll give you specific timelines before starting and keep you updated throughout the process. The goal is getting you back to normal operations as quickly as possible while ensuring the coating cures properly for maximum durability.
One of the biggest advantages of professional epoxy coating is minimal maintenance requirements. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping with standard cleaners is usually sufficient. The seamless surface doesn’t trap dirt or harbor bacteria like concrete does. For industrial applications, periodic deep cleaning might be needed depending on what your facility handles. Chemical spills should be cleaned promptly, though properly applied epoxy resists most common industrial chemicals. Unlike concrete floors that need regular sealing and repair, quality epoxy coating maintains its performance with basic cleaning. This reduced maintenance is one reason the initial investment pays off over time through lower operational costs.
