General FAQ:
Epoxy flooring is a tough, long-lasting surfacing solution created by mixing a resin and a hardener. This mixture is applied to existing floors, like concrete, to create a smooth, seamless finish. Think of it as a super-protective and customizable layer that enhances your floor’s looks and performance.
Sealing your concrete before applying epoxy is generally recommended. Sealers help prevent moisture issues and create a more even surface for the epoxy to adhere to. We can advise you on the best course of action after inspecting your concrete floor.
The cost of epoxy flooring can vary depending on the size of your space, the chosen finish, and the condition of your existing floor. Compared to other high-performance options, epoxy offers a good value due to its durability and long lifespan.
Epoxy installation requires careful preparation and specific techniques to ensure a flawless, long-lasting finish. While DIY epoxy kits exist, professional installation minimizes the risk of errors and guarantees a top-quality outcome. Here at Pro Line Epoxy Flooring, we have the expertise and experience to deliver a beautiful and functional epoxy floor for your needs.
Epoxy is a durable material, but scratches or chips can occur. In most cases, minor damage can be repaired. We can assess the situation and recommend the best course of action.
Minor cracks are repaired before epoxy application. Large or uneven areas may require extra work (e.g., grinding or patching) to ensure a level surface.
Typical cure times range from 24 to 48 hours to become usable; full cure may take up to 72 hours depending on conditions.
We use high-quality materials, possess extensive experience, and prioritize customer satisfaction. We can ensure a professional job that meets your specific needs and budget.
We do recommend a moisture barrier primer. This helps prevent epoxy from lifting and/or peeling and ensures a strong binding.

Application FAQs:
Curing time for epoxy flooring can vary depending on the product used and environmental factors. Generally, it takes around 24 to 48 hours for the floor to be fully cured and usable. We can provide specific cure times for the epoxy products we use.
Epoxy materials do emit fumes during the application process. These fumes can irritate the eyes, skin, and respiratory system. However, proper ventilation and following safety precautions significantly reduce these concerns. We will advise you on all necessary safety measures before installation.
Minor cracks are usually not a problem – we can fill them before applying the epoxy. However, large cracks or uneven surfaces might require additional work to ensure a smooth and level epoxy finish.
The short answer is yes, in most cases. We can assess the extent of the damage and recommend the best course of action, whether it’s repairing cracks, grinding uneven surfaces, or applying a patching compound.
Grinding the floor before applying epoxy is typically part of the process. This helps create a good bond between the epoxy and the concrete by removing any contaminants and achieving a slightly textured surface for better adhesion.
Epoxy flooring is a versatile solution suitable for various residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Common uses include garages, basements, workshops, retail spaces, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities.
Not necessarily. There are different finishes available, including some with added texture to improve slip resistance. We can discuss the best option for your needs to ensure both safety and aesthetics.
