Our experienced teams are equipped to handle large-scale projects efficiently and effectively, delivering results that meet or exceed our clients expectations.
Initial Assessment
The process begins with a comprehensive assessment of the commercial space. This includes evaluating the existing floor condition, substrate type, any existing coatings, and identifying specific requirements or challenges unique to the project.
Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is critical for the adhesion and durability of the epoxy coating. This involves thorough cleaning, removing any existing coatings or contaminants, and addressing any cracks, holes, or imperfections in the substrate.
Repairs and Patching
The professional team will address any structural issues or surface imperfections by repairing cracks, filling gaps, and patching damaged areas. This step ensures a smooth and even surface for the epoxy application.
Grinding and Profiling
In many cases, the substrate may need to be mechanically prepared through grinding or shot blasting. This process not only cleans the surface but also creates a profile that allows the epoxy to adhere better.
Primer Application
A high-quality epoxy primer is applied to the prepared surface. The primer enhances adhesion, minimizes air bubbles, and acts as a moisture barrier, preventing issues like bubbling or delamination.
Epoxy Application
The epoxy coating is applied in multiple layers, including the base coat and topcoat. The choice of epoxy type may vary based on the project’s specific requirements, such as chemical resistance, anti-slip properties, or decorative finish.
Decorative Options
For commercial spaces where aesthetics are a priority, decorative options like colored flakes, metallic pigments, or custom designs can be incorporated into the epoxy coating.
Curing and Drying
Each layer of epoxy requires sufficient curing and drying time. Professional epoxy installers follow manufacturer recommendations for curing times and environmental conditions to ensure a strong bond and durability.
Quality Inspection
After the epoxy is applied and fully cured, a thorough quality inspection is conducted. This includes checking for imperfections, ensuring an even finish, and addressing any touch-ups or corrections as needed.
Sealing and Protection
In some cases, a clear epoxy sealer or urethane topcoat may be applied to provide additional protection and extend the lifespan of the epoxy coating, especially in high-traffic commercial areas.
Clean-Up and Safety
A professional epoxy flooring company places a high emphasis on safety and ensures that the job site is cleaned up properly, and any hazardous materials are disposed of according to regulations.
Client Training
Once the project is completed, the professional team may provide the client with maintenance and care instructions to ensure the longevity of the epoxy coating.
