Why Epoxy Flooring?

Epoxy and urethane floor coatings bond to concrete to create a seamless, non-porous surface that shrugs off oil, chemicals, forklift traffic and impact. The result is a floor that is safer, brighter and far easier to maintain than bare concrete, with a lifespan measured in years, not months. Whether you are protecting a home garage or a 50,000-square-foot warehouse, the right system reduces dust, resists staining and lowers your long-term maintenance cost.

  • Seamless and non-porous, easy to sweep and wash
  • Resists oil, chemicals and abrasion
  • Brightens spaces and improves light reflectance
  • Anti-slip options for wet or high-traffic areas

Moisture Testing Comes Before Any Coating

Moisture is one of the most common reasons a floor coating lets go in BC. Water vapour moving up through a concrete slab builds pressure under a sealed coating, and over time it can blister and lift the floor. Our wet coastal climate makes it a real risk on Lower Mainland slabs. That is why we test the slab for moisture and condition during the free on-site assessment, before we recommend a system, and build moisture mitigation into the quote when the slab calls for it. A floor that looks perfect on handover day and peels a season later almost always skipped this step.

Concrete Prep Is Everything

Epoxy is only as good as the surface beneath it. We mechanically prepare every slab, diamond grinding or shot blasting to open the concrete profile, then repair cracks, spalls and joints before priming. Skipping prep is the number-one cause of peeling floors, and it is the step we never cut.

  • Diamond grinding and shot blasting
  • Crack, spall and joint repair
  • Moisture testing and mitigation
  • Degreasing and profiling

Our Epoxy Floor Process, Step by Step

Every floor follows the same order, whether it is a two-car garage or a production floor. Here is what happens from first call to handover.

  1. 01

    Free on-site assessment

    We visit the site, test the slab for moisture and condition, and ask about traffic, chemicals and your downtime window.

  2. 02

    System recommendation and written quote

    We match the coating system to how the floor is used and confirm the scope, schedule and warranty terms in writing.

  3. 03

    Surface preparation

    Diamond grinding or shot blasting to a proper concrete profile, plus degreasing where oil has soaked in.

  4. 04

    Repairs and moisture mitigation

    Cracks, spalls and joints are filled, and a moisture mitigation step goes down where the test called for one.

  5. 05

    Primer, build coats and topcoat

    Primer, base coats, any flake, quartz or anti-slip broadcast, then a durable topcoat, applied to a seamless, consistent finish.

  6. 06

    Line marking, cure and handover

    Safety lines and markings go on as part of the system, then a controlled cure, a walk-through inspection with you, and clear care guidance.

Systems We Install

We match the coating system to how the floor will be used. Garage and shop floors often get decorative flake or solid-colour epoxy with a urethane topcoat; industrial floors get chemical-resistant epoxy or fast-cure urethane built for constant traffic and heavy loads.

  • Garage and epoxy floor systems with flake or metallic finishes
  • Industrial epoxy and urethane coatings
  • Anti-slip and protective floor coatings
  • Concrete polishing and repair

Safety Markings & Line Painting

A floor coating project is the ideal time to add or refresh safety line markings, aisle striping, fire lanes and hazard zones. Clear, durable markings improve safety and keep facilities compliant, and applying them as part of the coating system means crisp, long-lasting lines.

We schedule around your operations, including evenings and weekends, and back every installation with a written workmanship warranty. Every project starts with a free on-site quote.

FAQ

Common questions.

How long does an epoxy floor take to install?+

Most residential garages take one to three days including prep and cure time. Larger commercial and industrial floors depend on square footage and system, which we confirm in your free on-site quote.

How long before I can walk or drive on the floor?+

Foot traffic is typically fine within 24 hours and vehicle traffic within a few days, depending on the system and temperature. We provide exact cure times for your project.

Do you test the concrete for moisture before coating?+

Yes. We test the slab for moisture and condition during the free on-site assessment, before we recommend a system. If the slab shows moisture, mitigation goes into the quote so the coating bonds and stays down.

Will epoxy peel or lift over time?+

Not when it is installed correctly. Peeling almost always traces back to poor prep or untested moisture. Our mechanical grinding, moisture testing and repair process is what keeps our floors bonded and warrantied.

What certifications does your crew hold?+

Precision is an AMPP member (formerly SSPC) and WorkSafeBC compliant. Crew tickets include WHMIS 2015, Occupational First Aid Level 1, respiratory protection, confined space awareness, fall protection, and forklift and telehandler certification.

Can you add anti-slip texture?+

Yes. We add anti-slip aggregate to topcoats for wet areas, ramps and high-traffic zones to improve traction without sacrificing cleanability.

Do you install floors in occupied facilities?+

Yes. We phase work and schedule evenings and weekends where needed so we can complete floors with minimal disruption to your operations.
