Your commercial floor takes a beating every day. We install heavy-build epoxy systems in St. Petersburg, FL that hold up to forklift traffic, chemical spills, and Florida's relentless humidity - with minimal business downtime.
Commercial and industrial epoxy floor coatings in St. Petersburg, FL use heavier-build systems applied over properly prepared concrete - designed to withstand daily forklift traffic, chemical exposure, and the moisture challenges of Florida's coastal climate, with most projects completed in two to four days.
A standard residential epoxy formula is not built for what a busy warehouse, auto shop, or commercial kitchen puts on a floor every day. Commercial-grade systems use more coats, more durable resins, and in some cases specialty topcoats designed to resist specific chemicals or provide anti-slip performance in wet areas. The prep process is also more involved - any surface contamination, existing coating failure, or moisture issue has to be addressed fully before a new system goes down. If you are comparing options for a smaller garage-style space, our garage floor coatings page covers residential and light-commercial options in more detail.
For environments with very specific demands - food service, pharmaceutical storage, or spaces with constant chemical exposure - our urethane cement flooring is worth considering as well. Urethane cement handles thermal shock and extreme chemical resistance better than standard epoxy in the most demanding environments.
If spills from oil, chemicals, or cleaning products leave marks that will not scrub out, your bare concrete is absorbing everything it touches. Uncoated concrete is porous by nature, and in a commercial space that sees regular use it becomes a maintenance problem fast. A coating seals the surface so spills sit on top and wipe away cleanly.
White powder on concrete or bubbling on an existing coating is a sign that moisture is pushing up through the slab from below - a very common issue in St. Petersburg's humid, coastal environment. This does not mean your floor is ruined, but it does mean any new coating needs to go over a properly prepped and moisture-tested surface. Coating over this problem produces the same result again.
Concrete that has started to pit or flake is breaking down at the surface level, which makes it harder to clean and easier to damage further. In a commercial or industrial space, a deteriorating floor can also become a safety issue - rough surfaces catch on equipment wheels and create tripping hazards. Coating after proper repair stops the deterioration.
St. Petersburg's flood risk is real. If your commercial building has taken on water - from a storm or a plumbing failure - the concrete may have absorbed salts or contaminants that cause future coatings to fail. Have the floor assessed before bringing equipment or inventory back in.
The right system depends on what your floor has to survive. A warehouse with forklift traffic needs a different build than a retail showroom or a food-service kitchen. We assess the space, the use case, and the condition of the existing concrete before recommending anything - and we match the coating to what the floor actually has to withstand, not just what looks good in a catalog.
For properties transitioning between uses - converting a warehouse to retail, or preparing a unit for a new tenant - a fresh commercial epoxy coating is one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make before a lease or sale. Businesses that also need residential-style coatings for storage or support spaces can pair this with our standard garage floor coatings and our heavy-duty urethane cement flooring for areas requiring extreme performance.
Multi-coat epoxy over properly prepared concrete - suited to retail, light manufacturing, and general commercial spaces.
Thicker-build systems with reinforced topcoats for warehouses, distribution centers, auto shops, and floors under constant heavy traffic.
Specialty formulas rated for chemical exposure - appropriate for automotive service, light manufacturing, and storage of industrial materials.
Aggregate broadcast into the topcoat provides grip in wet or high-traffic areas - a practical requirement for food service and commercial kitchens.
Nearly all commercial buildings in St. Petersburg are built on concrete slabs poured directly on the ground - no basement, no crawl space. That slab is in direct contact with Florida's sandy, moisture-rich soil, which pushes moisture upward through the concrete over time. This is a bigger concern here than in northern states, and it is one reason moisture testing before any coating project is non-negotiable in this market. Florida's rainy season - June through September - adds another layer of scheduling consideration, since elevated humidity can complicate curing if not managed carefully.
Businesses in areas like Pinellas Park and St. Petersburg have seen us address flood-affected slabs following hurricane seasons, which require additional assessment and sometimes a moisture-blocking primer before any new coating can go down. St. Petersburg's coastal location also means salt air exposure is a real factor for properties near the water - a detail that affects product selection for exterior-adjacent spaces and ground-level commercial units.
We ask about the space, its current use, and any known moisture or damage issues. Then we visit in person - no contractor who quotes you without seeing the floor is giving you a reliable number. We respond to all inquiries within one business day.
After the site visit and moisture testing, you receive a written quote that specifies what prep work is needed, what coating system we are recommending, and the total cost. No ballpark estimates, no phone quotes.
The concrete is ground or blasted to create a surface the epoxy can grip. Cracks, chips, and damaged areas are filled and leveled. This prep phase typically takes one full day for a mid-sized commercial space and is the most important part of the entire job.
Coating goes on in layers, with each layer curing before the next. Light foot traffic is possible within 24 hours, but full cure for heavy use takes five to seven days. We walk through the finished floor with you before we leave and leave you with maintenance instructions.
We visit your space, test the slab, and give you a price in writing - nothing over the phone without seeing the floor first. Call or fill out the form and we will respond within one business day.
(727) 632-8174Florida requires contractors performing commercial flooring work to carry a state-issued license through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. You can look up our license on the DBPR website before signing anything - search by name or number, and the result tells you whether the license is active and whether there have been any complaints.
Concrete in St. Petersburg holds more moisture than slabs in drier climates, and a slab that has ever flooded holds even more. We test every commercial floor before applying any product. If a moisture-blocking primer is needed, we tell you before we quote - not after the coating fails.
St. Petersburg's hurricane exposure is real. If your building has taken on water, we assess the concrete first and tell you exactly what it needs. We have worked on post-flood slabs throughout Pinellas County and know what additional prep those floors require before a coating will hold long-term.
We know St. Petersburg businesses cannot afford extended closures. We schedule large commercial jobs for weekends or slower periods and give you a firm completion date before we start. Fall and winter slots fill fast - if you are planning ahead for the next slow season, earlier is better.
Every credential and process listed here exists because we have seen what happens when they are skipped - peeling coatings, failed moisture barriers, and businesses that had to close again to redo work that was done wrong the first time. Resources like OSHA and the World Floor Covering Association set the standards we build to on every commercial project.
