Industrial Epoxy Flooring Built to Take a Beating

Pricing depends on the system, slab condition, and square footage, so a warehouse pushing thousands of feet prices differently than a tight processing room. High-build epoxy generally runs less per foot than urethane cement or ESD systems, which carry more material and labor. We measure the floor, test the slab, and send transparent, itemized pricing in about 24 hours. No pressure, no games, and no hidden add-ons.

We schedule around your production runs and shutdowns, not the other way around. Fast-cure polyaspartic and urethane-cement systems let us stage work by zone or phase so parts of the plant stay running. Many jobs are done over a weekend or a scheduled maintenance window. We build the sequence with you before we start so operations knows exactly what's offline and when.

It depends on the system. Fast-cure polyaspartic topcoats can accept foot traffic in hours and light traffic overnight, while full forklift and heavy-rack loading typically wants a bit more cure time. Standard 100%-solids epoxy cures slower than polyaspartic. We give you the specific return-to-service schedule for your system in writing so you can plan the restart.

Yes. For food and beverage processing, breweries, and pharma, we install seamless, USDA/FDA-compliant systems, most often urethane cement, with integral cove base at wall and drain transitions. The seamless finish eliminates the grout lines and cracks where bacteria hide and holds up to constant wash-downs, caustics, and hot spills.

Very, when the right system is specified. Chemical-resistant novolac epoxy stands up to aggressive acids, solvents, and caustics found in chemical and plating environments. Urethane cement handles thermal shock from steam cleaning, hot-process spills, and freezer-to-ambient swings that would delaminate a standard epoxy. We match the system to your actual chemical exposure and temperature range.

Yes. For electronics assembly, cleanrooms, aerospace and defense work, and any area with static-sensitive processes, we install ESD / static-control systems with an embedded conductive grid tied to a grounding point. These floors dissipate static charge within the specified range while still giving you a seamless, easy-to-clean industrial surface.

Epoxy is a strong, cost-effective choice for warehouses, assembly, and dry manufacturing. Urethane cement is the heavy hitter for food and beverage, breweries, and cold storage — it tolerates thermal shock, hot wash-downs, and aggressive chemicals that would soften or lift epoxy, and it can be installed over damp or newer concrete where standard epoxy can't, after moisture testing. We spec whichever your process actually demands.

Always. Below-slab moisture vapor is the number-one cause of coating failure and delamination, and it's invisible until the floor is peeling. We test slab moisture before we quote a system. If readings are high, we install a moisture-barrier / vapor-mitigation primer so the finished floor bonds and stays bonded.

Usually, yes, but only after proper prep. We diamond-grind or shot-blast the concrete to open the surface and remove contaminated laitance, then treat oil-saturated areas and patch spalls, cracks, and joints. Coatings fail when contractors skip this and coat over grease. If a section is too far gone, we'll tell you straight rather than sell you a floor that won't last.

We broadcast quartz or flake aggregate into the coating to build the traction level your environment needs — more grip for wet processing and wash-down zones, smoother where forklifts and cleanability matter most. We can specify finishes that meet OSHA slip-resistance guidance and add safety line striping, walkways, and hazard markings in the same install.

Every industrial system we install carries a written 25-year warranty. Because we prep properly, test for moisture, and use our own in-house crews — never subcontractors — the same trained team that quotes your floor preps and installs it. That's how we hold quality, hit the shutdown schedule we committed to, and stand behind the bond in writing.

We operate from 9 licensed locations across Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina — including Jacksonville and Fort Myers, plus Atlanta, GA and Charleston, SC — serving manufacturing plants, warehouses, distribution centers, and processing facilities.
