Frequently Asked Questions About Elite Crete Systems Florida
Are Epoxy Floors Slippery?
There are many varieties of epoxy floors, some smooth and glossy and others with texture built into them. The textured variety is used in areas that need more slip resistance, such as wet areas. Even higher-gloss smooth floors are not any more slippery than traditional tile floors and can be installed with a nonslip additive to increase the slip resistance.
Can Epoxy Flooring Go Over Wood?
Most all epoxies are made to be installed on concrete surfaces. Epoxies will typically bond to a clean wooden substrate such as plywood. There are also flexible epoxies that will allow for minor movement in a wood floor, but inspection of the existing structural components of the floor will need to be checked first.
Can Epoxy Flooring Be Patched?
Yes, epoxy floors can be patched. Some types of floors are easier to patch and blend in than others, but any epoxy floor can be repaired.
How Is Epoxy Flooring Done?
A typical epoxy floor would require grinding the concrete surface to provide a clean, porous surface for the epoxy to adhere to. Then, most floors have 2 – 4 coats of epoxy or a combination of epoxy base and others on top to create a flooring ‘system.’
Where Is Epoxy Flooring Used?
Epoxy flooring can be used in both residential and commercial areas. It is most commonly used on residential garage floors, but it can also be used on interior flooring. Commercial areas of use would be warehouses, repair shops, manufacturing facilities, laboratories, bathrooms and locker rooms, commercial kitchens, and more.
Where Can You Buy Epoxy Flooring?
Big Box stores sell DIY kits for homeowners to use, but the makeup of those materials is a far cry from what is used in commercial and industrial environments. Commercial products are generally available through distributors who sell industrial coatings, such as Elite Crete Systems Florida. These industrial products are sold to installers who have the proper equipment, training, and expertise to install these products properly.
What Is Epoxy Flooring?
Epoxy flooring is a fluid-applied resinous floor. This means the products used are typically two-component products mixed together and then applied to a properly prepped floor. They are normally installed in multiple layers to create the flooring ‘system.’ The nature of being poured in place allows for a seamless floor, which makes these floors perfect for places needing a hygienic environment.
Who Does Epoxy Flooring Near Me?
Professional epoxy flooring installers are available all across the country. When choosing your installer, we recommend doing due diligence and checking on previous work done, time in the industry, reviews from past clients, and making sure they have proper licensing and insurance. We are more than happy to recommend a few installers we deal with in your area.
Why Use Epoxy Flooring?
Epoxy flooring has many benefits. It is a seamless floor, which makes it easy to keep clean and maintain and prevents the growth of mold/mildew or bacteria. Epoxy floors also cure to a very hard surface, which allows for heavy traffic, such as forklifts and vehicles.
Is Epoxy Flooring Expensive?
Epoxy flooring typically comes in the same budget range as a quality tile floor or wood.
What types of epoxy floors does Elite Crete Systems Florida offer and are they slippery?
Elite Crete Systems Florida offers various epoxy floors, including smooth glossy types and textured ones for slip resistance. Textured floors are designed for areas needing more grip, like wet spaces, and even smooth glossy floors can include nonslip additives.
Can epoxy flooring be installed over wood surfaces?
While most epoxies are designed for concrete, they typically bond to clean wooden substrates like plywood. Flexible epoxies can accommodate minor wood floor movement, but the existing floor's structure should be inspected first.

Yes, epoxy floors can be patched. Some types blend more easily than others, but all epoxy floors can be repaired when needed.
