Commercial · Ocala, FL
Commercial kitchen epoxy flooring has to handle hot grease, constant washdowns, and health-code scrutiny without getting slick or peeling. Elite Epoxy Ocala installs and repairs food-safe, seamless epoxy and urethane systems built for traction, drainage, and fast return to service in Ocala.
Prep decides whether a kitchen floor lasts or fails, so we start by testing the slab for moisture vapor transmission and checking for oil saturation, weak concrete, and hollow spots. We remove coatings and contaminants with diamond grinding or shot blasting, then detail edges, coves, and penetrations with hand grinders and HEPA vacs. Cracks and spalls are repaired with epoxy mortar or polyurethane crack filler, control joints are respected or rebuilt based on movement, and low areas can be corrected with a trowel-applied epoxy patch or self-leveling underlayment. Before any build coats, we install a penetrating epoxy primer (or moisture-mitigating epoxy) to lock down the substrate and improve bond strength.
Kitchens in Central Florida see humidity swings and frequent hot-water washdowns, so we spec systems that resist thermal shock and constant chemical exposure. For heavy-duty cook lines and dish areas, we often recommend urethane cement (polyurethane concrete) at 1/8-1/4 inch with an integral broadcast for slip resistance, then a chemical-resistant topcoat. For lighter prep areas or dry storage, a high-solids epoxy with a quartz broadcast and urethane topcoat can deliver traction, cleanability, and good stain resistance. We can add integral cove base, radius coves at walls and curbs, and detail terminations at floor sinks and stainless equipment legs to reduce harborage points. Finish options include satin or gloss topcoats, color-coded zones, and anti-microbial additives when appropriate for the facility’s SOPs.
Ocala restaurant owners, commissaries, and food plants choose us because we focus on jobsite control and predictable results, not shortcuts. Our crews stage work to protect adjacent equipment, tape and seal for dust control, and use commercial-grade mixing, calibrated squeegees, notched trowels, and broadcast techniques for consistent texture. You get straight answers on what can be repaired versus what needs a full resurfacing, along with written recommendations for slip resistance and cleaning chemistry. We are licensed and insured, and we communicate clearly with GMs, chefs, and maintenance teams so the floor work matches operating hours and inspection timelines.
The closeout includes a walkthrough that verifies coverage, cove transitions, drain details, and texture consistency in wet areas, plus any punch-list touchups before we demobilize. You receive a written scope, system build details (primer, body, broadcast, topcoat), cure times for foot traffic and equipment, and cleaning guidance that fits degreasers, foaming agents, and sanitizer routines. For repairs, we isolate failures, remove compromised material to sound concrete, and tie in patches cleanly to reduce ledges and trip points. Whether it is a targeted repair or a full replacement, the goal is a seamless, easy-to-sanitize floor that holds up under daily service and washdown cycles.
Most garage projects take 1-2 days depending on repairs and the system selected. Cure time varies; we will specify when you can walk on it and when vehicles can return.
Sometimes, but it depends on adhesion and condition. We typically grind to sound material, remove failing layers, and re-coat with a compatible epoxy primer and topcoat.
Epoxy is commonly used as the basecoat for build and bond strength. Polyaspartic is often used as a fast-curing, UV-stable topcoat that adds abrasion resistance and gloss retention.
Yes. We route and fill cracks where appropriate and patch spalls and pitting with epoxy repair materials so the floor coats smooth and wears evenly.
Dry dust mop or sweep regularly, then mop with a neutral cleaner and water. Avoid harsh acids and leave metal implements off the coating to prevent scratching.
If your kitchen floor is getting slick, stained, or peeling around fryers, dish stations, or walk-ins, commercial kitchen epoxy flooring is a proven upgrade. Elite Epoxy Ocala installs and repairs seamless resin floors designed for wet traction, sanitation, and long-term bond to concrete. We work in occupied facilities, coordinate shutdown windows, and deliver a system matched to your traffic, cleaning chemicals, and thermal exposure.
Commercial kitchen epoxy flooring is not one product, it is a system built in layers to match conditions. After concrete profiling by diamond grinding or shot blasting, we prime with a penetrating epoxy or a moisture-mitigating epoxy when needed. Build coats are selected based on use: high-solids epoxy for many prep and storage areas, and urethane cement for high-heat, high-water zones where thermal cycling can break ordinary epoxies. Texture is created with a controlled broadcast of quartz or aluminum oxide, then locked in with a chemical-resistant urethane topcoat for cleanability and stain resistance.
Repairs start with identifying the cause, not just covering the symptom. We remove failed coatings to sound concrete, address oil contamination and moisture issues, rebuild spalls and cracks with epoxy mortar and flexible joint materials, then blend the new work into the surrounding floor with matching texture and topcoat. When the slab is too compromised or the coating has widespread failure, we will recommend a full resurfacing so you are not paying to patch the same areas repeatedly.
Every project ends with a documented scope, cure-time guidance, and practical maintenance recommendations for degreasers, hot-water washdowns, and sanitizer routines.
