Epoxy Flooring for Commercial and Residential Use

Why Get an Epoxy Floor from Gallatin's Epoxy Flooring Professionals?

If you are looking to upgrade your flooring with a strong and stylish finish, an epoxy floor system stands out from other options. Epoxy flooring is highly durable, sustainable and customizable so you don’t have to choose between a floor that is decorative or a floor that is durable - you can have both! Let’s unpack how this versatile flooring material works, whether you need an elegant entrance to your home or an unyielding surface for your workplace.

Understanding Epoxy Flooring

What is Epoxy?

We are all familiar with the epoxy glue that mixes a polymer and a hardener to bond wood, plastics and metals to other surfaces. Epoxy flooring works the same way, combining polymer resins and hardeners to form a strong attachment with each other and with the floor. When properly mixed, the epoxy resin and hardening agent dries to form a rigid, plastic-like coat that is long-lasting, stain resistant, and easy to clean. 

Properties of Epoxy Flooring

  • Durability

    Compared to other types of flooring like laminate, wood, tile or marble, epoxy is almost impossible to warp, chip or damage. It can withstand the abuse of heavy foot traffic or friction from heavy equipment. If we install your epoxy floor in Gallatin, rest assured it will be able to take a beating without showing signs of stress or damage. It is the toughest floor surface out there for handling shock, heat, chemical spills, and nearly any other type of accident you could imagine.. You can reasonably expect your epoxy flooring to last for 10-20 years with proper care and maintenance. From customers who have them, you’ll hear that they are hard to damage.

  • Seamless Finish

    Because epoxy is poured and then spread or rolled evenly, there are no seams, ridges, or edges  creating a perfectly flat look. The single seamless surface offers a smooth finish, even coverage, precise measurements and beautiful detailing. There are no cracks and crevices for dirt and bacteria to collect which makes epoxy flooring easy to clean with just soap and water. The seamless look can also magnify the sense of space and make any room seem larger.

  • Aesthetic Appeal

    The smooth and glossy finish of epoxy flooring combined with the various appearance options can work with any design aesthetic for achieving the look you want. It can elevate the look and feel of any residential or commercial space with its customizable colors, patterns, and finishes. Want a metallic finish with speckled patterns? Check. Want a flake design with geometric motifs? Check. We can tailor an epoxy coating to fit your personal taste.

  • Cost-Effectiveness

    The cost per square foot of a floor epoxy system is typically lower than other types of flooring like granite, hardwood,and even high-end stained concrete. But the real savings come from its durability and easy-care maintenance. Epoxy floors can be easily patched when damaged or over-coated when outdated. There’s no need for frequent repair or redoing of the entire floor due to the robustness of its chemical composition. It also requires less material and effort to clean, with no trapped filth or grime to contend with.

Applications of Epoxy Flooring

Residential Spaces

Long gone are the days when epoxy flooring was only found in commercial and industrial settings. It has gained popularity in residential settings like bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and especially used for epoxy garage floors. We can run a smooth concrete driveway into your garage and boost the look inside your garage by finishing that area with custom epoxy. Mold and mildew, food or drink spillage, and oil and dropped tools are no match for these tough floors. From simple monochromatic hues to colorful patterns, they come with infinite design combinations to level up any plain traditional floor while extending the life, protecting the original floor, and usually adding an ability to clean them easier.

Commercial Spaces

Retail stores, offices, and restaurants have long benefited from epoxy flooring’s resistance to just about every activity and item run in their premises. Whether you have a small retail space or a large warehouse outside Nashville, give us a call so we can help you decide if epoxy flooring is right for your business. From heavy foot traffic to harmful spills, these floors are impervious to stains and cracking. Their non-toxic compound offers skid resistance and non-slip properties that enhance the overall safety and health of employees and guests. Epoxy flooring for retail spaces, with its diverse range of customization options, also presents a remarkable opportunity to elevate business branding. Custom designs and logos can be inserted under the coating for an eye catching wow-factor that will have your clients doing a double take.

Healthcare Settings

With healthcare being one of the largest industries in greater Nashville and employing more people than any other sector, hospitals and healthcare facilities remain in huge need for safe epoxy floors. These facilities prioritize cleanliness and hygiene and epoxy flooring is easy to clean and disinfect against bacteria and pathogens that cause diseases and other complications. They are one of the most sanitary options available for flooring because by their nature, epoxy coated floors are almost entirely antimicrobial. This liquid-resistant floor system can effortlessly withstand various fluids such as bleach, medications and other chemicals that commonly spill in this environment. Also, the seamless surface makes it easier for gurneys or wheelchairs to roll without jostling or resistance.

Industrial Settings

Because of its excellent resistance against all kinds of pressures and contaminants, epoxy flooring is an ideal solution for intense foot traffic, heavy moving machinery, temperature extremes, abrasive chemicals, and other types of rough treatment. It is engineered for durability and longevity in demanding environments, with reduced cleaning and maintenance costs. It can transform the dull, drab concrete of warehouses, manufacturing plants and distribution centers with a more refined look.



That said, the benefits of epoxy flooring for commercial use and residences can only happen when properly installed. The surface has to be prepped properly, the materials have to be mixed correctly, and the mixture has to be leveled evenly. These reasons are just some that point to why hiring an experienced and professional team of epoxy contractors makes the most sense. Not to mention we have the appropriate PPE gear and respirators to avoid the strong chemical smell that can be dangerous when inhaled during the installation.
