It’s a common misconception that an epoxy basement floor is slippery. Actually, epoxy has a similar feel as a basketball court. As long as it’s clean and dry, it offers a safe amount of grip. This smooth surface also makes the floor system incredibly easy to clean. For additional traction, we can add skid-resistant additives to the top coat to achieve your level of slip resistance. This makes your basement floor even safer, even when wet.

What is epoxy flooring?
Epoxy flooring may look like paint when it’s applied but it’s actually a combination of an industrial grade resin and a hardener. When combined, they cause a chemical reaction to create a very rigid, nonporous plastic coating. An epoxy floor system is much stronger than concrete and resists degradation and damage by bonding with the concrete substrate. Epoxy flooring is so strong and durable that it’s even used in the most demanding industrial settings like manufacturing plants and laboratories.
How long does epoxy flooring last?
How long an epoxy floor system lasts depends on many factors such as the quality of the installation, how well the concrete substrate is prepared, the grade of epoxy, and the amount of wear and tear the floor faces. Basement epoxy floor coatings are among the longest-lasting floor solution you can choose. Because your floor isn’t likely to face extreme wear or UV damage, it can easily last up to 20 years or even longer while maintaining its bright, clean appearance. Even in industrial settings, epoxy flooring typically lasts 10 years.
What happens if my basement floods?
If your basement ever floods due to sump pump failure, a bad storm, or a leaking water heater, don’t panic. Simply remove the water with a wet-vac or mop. Once the water is removed, mop your epoxy floor. Basement epoxy floor coatings in Detroit, Michigan will not be damaged by water that enters the basement from a sump pit, drain, wall-to-floor joints, or the walls.
The only type of water damage that can damage your residential epoxy basement floor is water that comes up through the slab. This is known as hydrostatic transmission. Fortunately, this is not common. Our epoxy installers will look for issues that can cause this problem in the future when we assess your basement.
Can we have epoxy installed if our basement has old asbestos tiles?
While your basement may still be a good candidate for epoxy flooring, the asbestos tile and the mastic or glue must be removed by asbestos abatement professionals before we can install epoxy floors.
What are the benefits of basement epoxy flooring?
There are dozens of benefits to enjoy with epoxy floor installation. One of the primary benefits that applies to your basement is epoxy’s ability to stop and resist water damage.
