When it comes to flooring that can handle heavy traffic, resist stains, and still look great, epoxy flooring stands out as one of the most reliable choices on the market. Whether you’re upgrading your garage, sprucing up a showroom, or improving your commercial workspace, epoxy offers a strong, long-lasting finish that’s both practical and attractive.

At Legendary Concrete Concepts Inc, they’ve installed epoxy floors in homes, retail shops, and industrial buildings across the region. In this guide, they break down what epoxy flooring is, why it’s a smart investment, and how it transforms everyday concrete into a clean, seamless surface that performs beautifully for years.

What Is Epoxy Flooring?

Epoxy flooring is a system made from resin and hardener that bonds to your concrete floor and creates a hard, glossy finish. It's more than just a coating—once it cures, it becomes a durable plastic-like surface that protects against wear, chemicals, moisture, and impact.

You’ve likely seen epoxy in:

• Garages

• Warehouses and factories

• Retail and commercial showrooms

• Medical and food prep facilities

• Basements and workshops

Whether you're looking for industrial strength or a sleek aesthetic, epoxy flooring offers both.

Top Benefits of Epoxy Flooring

Here’s why more property owners are choosing epoxy over traditional flooring options:

✅ Extreme Durability

Epoxy is highly resistant to impact, abrasion, stains, and heavy loads. Ideal for garages and commercial spaces.

✅ Easy Maintenance

No grout lines, no porous surfaces—just sweep and mop. Epoxy resists oil, chemicals, and dirt.

✅ Moisture & Chemical Resistance

Perfect for areas prone to spills, leaks, or wet conditions. Epoxy won’t absorb moisture or react to most chemicals.

✅ Customizable Designs

Choose from solid colors, metallic finishes, flake systems, or even company logos embedded in the floor.

✅ Fast Installation

Most epoxy floors can be installed in just a few days, depending on prep work and curing times.

Epoxy Flooring Options

Legendary Concrete Concepts Inc offers multiple epoxy finishes to suit different needs:

• Solid Color Epoxy: Simple, clean, and classic

• Flake Epoxy System: Colored chips added for texture and slip resistance

• Metallic Epoxy: Swirls of reflective pigment for a one-of-a-kind finish

• Quartz Epoxy: Industrial-grade texture with sand-like aggregate for traction

Each style is tailored for durability and aesthetics, depending on the space.

Where Epoxy Flooring Works Best

Epoxy flooring is versatile and can be installed in both residential and commercial settings, including:

• Garages and workshops

• Kitchens and basements

• Retail stores and salons

• Hospitals and clinics

• Factories and machine shops

• Restaurants and commercial kitchens

Whether it's functionality or visual appeal, epoxy floors deliver a balance of both.

The Epoxy Flooring Process

Here’s how Legendary Concrete Concepts Inc ensures a flawless epoxy floor every time:

1. Surface Prep: The concrete is cleaned and mechanically ground to create a profile for bonding.

2. Crack Repair: Any minor cracks or pits are patched to ensure a smooth application.

3. Primer Layer: A base coat is applied to bond the epoxy to the concrete.

4. Epoxy Application: The epoxy resin and hardener are mixed and poured. Chips or pigments are added at this stage if needed.

5. Topcoat Sealer: A final coat seals the system, adds shine, and protects from wear and UV.

FAQs About Epoxy Flooring

1. How long does epoxy flooring last?

With proper care, epoxy flooring can last 10 to 20 years, even under heavy use.

2. Can epoxy be applied over damaged concrete?

Minor cracks or imperfections can be repaired before application. Severely damaged concrete may need resurfacing first.

3. Is epoxy slippery?

It can be, especially when wet. To improve traction, anti-slip additives or flake systems are often used.

4. How long does it take to install?

Most residential projects are completed in 2–3 days, including drying time. Larger commercial spaces may take longer.

5. Can epoxy be used outdoors?

Standard epoxy isn’t ideal for outdoor use due to UV sensitivity. However, UV-resistant topcoats or polyaspartic coatings can be used as alternatives.

Conclusion

If you want a surface that’s strong, easy to clean, and visually impressive, epoxy flooring is a top-tier choice. It outlasts paint, looks more professional than bare concrete, and can be tailored to match your brand or style.
