Low Ground, High Traffic

Epoxy flooring in Chesterfield splits naturally into two jobs. Down in the Chesterfield Valley, once known as Gumbo Flats, the levee failed on July 30, 1993, and the area was flooded by feet of water, per Wikipedia. Higher levees built afterward opened the valley to heavy commercial growth. Up the hill, neighborhoods of 1970s and 1980s homes hold thousands of attached garages. Each setting calls for a different kind of floor.

Floors in the Valley

The valley holds retail, light industry, rail-served plants and Spirit of St. Louis Airport. Floors there may face forklifts, pallet jacks, aircraft tugs and the occasional spill of fuel or hydraulic fluid. For those spaces we look at:

Thicker 100% solids epoxy for impact and abrasion.
Chemical-resistant topcoats where fuels and fluids are present.
Safety striping and marked aisles laid into the coating.
Moisture testing on slabs built on former bottomland.

Garages from the building boom

ACS data on Point2Homes dates 31.9% of Chesterfield's homes to the 1970s and 22.6% to the 1980s, with a median year of 1982. Those garages are now 35 to 50 years old. Expect hairline cracks, worn surfaces and stains under the parking spots. We grind, repair and then apply the system that fits how the garage is used.

Owners who plan to stay

About 77.6% of occupied homes in Chesterfield are owned. For long-term owners, a full broadcast flake with a polyaspartic topcoat is a common choice, because it handles winter salt and hot tires and keeps its look for years. If you have a car you care about or a workshop corner, we can also discuss a metallic or solid-color section.

Planning around a business

Many valley businesses cannot close for long. We plan commercial work in zones or over weekends, list cure times in the quote and agree on when each area can return to service.

Chesterfield Questions

Is a slab in the Chesterfield Valley more likely to have moisture problems?

It can be, since it sits on former bottomland. We test every slab before quoting and use a moisture-mitigating primer when readings call for it.

Can you coat a hangar or aviation workshop floor?

Yes. Those floors often need resistance to fuels and hydraulic fluids, plus high-visibility striping. We match the topcoat to the fluids in use.

My 1980s garage has cracks. Will they come back through the coating?

Stable hairline cracks are filled and usually do not return. Cracks that are still moving may show again in time. We explain which kind you have during the estimate.

How long will my business floor be out of service?

It depends on the system and the size of the area. We give a written schedule showing when each zone can reopen.
