How Epoxy Floors Are Installed
A professional epoxy install is a sequence, not a coat of product. Every step exists to protect the next.
1. Walkthrough & Moisture Check
Slab age, past coatings and moisture cues drive the recommended system.
2. Diamond Grinding
Mechanical profile opens the concrete pores so the coating can bond.
3. Repair
Cracks and pits are filled with resin repair materials and re-ground flush.
4. Base Coat
Colored resin body coat is squeegeed and back-rolled to spec.
5. Broadcast (optional)
Decorative flake is broadcast to refusal for a full flake system.
6. Topcoat
Clear epoxy or polyaspartic topcoat locks it in.
