The benefits of our epoxy floor coatings are unbeatable.

When it comes to a basement floor there are many options to choose from and we don’t want to discourage you from choosing a floor that best suits your wants and needs; however, when considering floors like tile, wood, or unprotected concrete it is important to remember that these will not last and will damage easily.

Epoxy vs Tile

Although both floors are good options, a tile floor will not last in a basement setting because it is not:

Impact
Moisture
Damage resistant of any kind

Epoxy floors can be installed to mimic a tile pattern floor while leaving out the grout and individual tiles that would easily damage under changing temperatures and/or high use.

Water-proof
Slip-resistant
Chemical-resistant

Different color schemes.
