Your concrete takes a beating every day. Forklifts, heavy equipment, chemical spills, constant foot traffic. Regular concrete cracks, stains, and deteriorates under this kind of punishment.
Professional epoxy floor coating changes that completely. You get a surface that’s four times harder than concrete, chemical-resistant, and designed to handle whatever your operation throws at it. No more worrying about equipment damage from floor cracks or safety issues from worn surfaces.
The result? Floors that look professional for decades while reducing your maintenance headaches and costs. Your facility stays operational, your equipment stays protected, and your floors actually enhance your workspace instead of becoming a liability.
Legends Construction LLC brings over 10 years of painting experience to Romeo, MI. We’ve been operating our current company for two years, focusing on interior, exterior, residential, and commercial work.
What sets us apart is simple: we do the job right the first time. Every project gets the same attention to detail, whether it’s a small garage or a large warehouse. We’re family-owned and operated by two brothers who understand that your satisfaction means our success.
Romeo businesses trust us because we deliver quality work at competitive pricing. We’re not the cheapest option, and that’s intentional. You’re investing in proper surface preparation, premium materials, and craftsmanship that lasts.
Great epoxy floors start with proper preparation. We use industrial-grade diamond grinders to remove existing coatings and create the surface profile needed for maximum adhesion. Any cracks get filled and repaired before we start.
Next comes the primer application. This isn’t optional – it’s what bonds everything together and provides moisture protection. We use 100% solid epoxy that actually penetrates your concrete, unlike water-based products or concrete paint that just sit on the surface.
The base coat follows, applied in controlled conditions to ensure proper curing. If you want decorative flakes or anti-slip additives, this is when they go down. Finally, the topcoat seals everything and provides the chemical resistance and durability you need. The entire process typically takes 2-3 days, with full cure in about a week.

Professional epoxy installation means more than just applying coating. You get surface preparation that ensures proper adhesion, premium materials that withstand Romeo’s climate extremes, and application techniques that eliminate common failures.
Michigan’s temperature swings are brutal on floors. Our coatings handle freeze-thaw cycles, salt exposure from winter operations, and the humidity changes that crack lesser products. We use formulations specifically designed for industrial environments that need to perform year after year.
Your installation includes proper ventilation during application, curing monitoring, and final inspection to ensure everything meets specifications. We also provide maintenance recommendations to maximize your floor’s lifespan. Romeo facilities choose us because we understand local conditions and engineer our approach accordingly.
Professional epoxy floor coatings typically last 15-20 years in commercial environments when properly installed and maintained. The key factors are surface preparation quality, material grade, and application technique.
Industrial-grade epoxy systems use 100% solid formulations that penetrate concrete and form chemical bonds, not just surface adhesion. This creates a coating that becomes part of your floor structure rather than just sitting on top. Regular maintenance like cleaning spills promptly and avoiding harsh abrasives will maximize lifespan.
In Romeo’s climate, proper installation is critical because temperature fluctuations can cause premature failure in lesser systems. We use materials designed for Michigan conditions and follow manufacturer specifications exactly.
Epoxy paint is basically latex paint with some epoxy added for marketing purposes. It’s thin, provides minimal protection, and typically fails within 1-2 years. Professional epoxy coating is a completely different product.
True epoxy coating uses a two-part system where resin and hardener create a chemical reaction during curing. This produces a thick, hard surface that’s chemically bonded to your concrete. The finished thickness is usually 10-20 times greater than paint, providing real protection against impacts, chemicals, and wear.
Professional systems also include proper primers and topcoats designed to work together. Paint products skip these critical components, which is why they peel and fail quickly under commercial use.
Yes, but proper surface preparation is absolutely critical for success. The existing concrete must be clean, structurally sound, and properly profiled to ensure adhesion.
We start by testing for existing sealers, paint, or coatings that must be completely removed. Oil stains, grease, and other contaminants get special treatment because they prevent proper bonding. Cracks and damage require repair before coating application.
Surface profiling usually involves diamond grinding or shot blasting to create the texture needed for mechanical adhesion. This isn’t optional – smooth concrete won’t hold epoxy coating regardless of the product quality. The preparation phase typically takes 40-60% of the total project time, but it’s what separates successful installations from failures.
Professional epoxy coating typically ranges from $3-8 per square foot depending on the system complexity, surface condition, and facility requirements. Basic single-color systems start around $3-4 per square foot, while decorative or high-performance systems can reach $6-8 per square foot.
The investment pays for itself through reduced maintenance costs and extended floor life. Properly installed epoxy eliminates the need for regular concrete sealing, reduces cleaning time, and prevents costly concrete replacement. Most facilities see payback within 3-5 years.
Romeo commercial properties also benefit from increased property values and improved safety ratings. When you factor in avoided downtime from floor repairs and replacement costs, professional epoxy coating is typically the most economical long-term solution.
Epoxy floors are remarkably low-maintenance compared to bare concrete or other flooring options. Daily maintenance involves sweeping or dust mopping to remove debris that could scratch the surface over time.
Weekly cleaning with a neutral pH cleaner and damp mop keeps the floor looking professional. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that can dull the finish. Spills should be cleaned promptly – while epoxy resists most chemicals, prolonged exposure to strong acids or bases can cause damage.
Annual inspection helps identify any areas needing attention before small issues become major problems. With proper care, your epoxy floor will maintain its appearance and performance for decades. We provide specific maintenance guidelines based on your facility’s use patterns and environmental conditions.
Standard epoxy can be slippery when wet, but this is easily addressed during installation. We offer several anti-slip options including textured additives, broadcast aggregates, and specialized topcoats that provide excellent traction.
The key is matching the slip resistance to your facility’s needs. Light foot traffic areas might only need subtle texture, while areas with frequent wet conditions or heavy machinery require more aggressive anti-slip treatments. We can achieve specific coefficient of friction ratings to meet OSHA requirements.
Romeo facilities often choose anti-slip options because Michigan winters mean wet conditions are common. The slight texture doesn’t affect cleaning difficulty but significantly improves safety. We’ll recommend the appropriate level based on your specific use patterns and safety requirements.
