SYSTEMS OVERVIEW
Urethane Cement Flooring Systems
Best for high-moisture and heavy washdown areas
Urethane cement is ideal for:
-
Kennel areas
-
Animal holding spaces
-
Wash bays
-
Veterinary surgical prep area
High-Build Epoxy Flooring Systems
Best for exam rooms, hallways, grooming stations, and lobbies
Epoxy systems provide:
Seamless installation
Bright, reflective finishes
Easy-to-clean surfaces
Chemical resistance
Long-term durability
Moisture Vapor Barrier (MVB) Systems for Tampa Slabs
Concrete slabs in Florida often experience elevated moisture vapor transmission.
If moisture levels are not properly addressed, coatings can fail prematurely.
We perform ASTM-compliant moisture testing and install epoxy moisture vapor barrier systems when necessary to prevent delamination, protect your flooring investment, and extend system lifespan.
Moisture mitigation is especially critical in the Tampa Bay climate.
Polyaspartic Flooring Systems
Best for facilities that need minimal downtime
Polyaspartic systems offer:
Rapid cure times
UV stability (non-yellowing)
High abrasion resistance
Excellent adhesion
Fast return-to-service
This makes them ideal for grooming salons and boarding facilities that cannot afford extended shutdowns.
ANIMAL CARE FACILITY FAQs
The best flooring for a dog daycare facility is typically urethane cement or high-build epoxy with a slip-resistant texture.
Dog daycare floors must withstand:
Frequent cleaning and disinfecting
Urine exposure
Heavy paw traffic
Water from washdowns
Florida humidity
High wear urethane and urethane cement are ideal for high-moisture kennel areas, while epoxy works well in play areas, lobbies, and grooming spaces.
Veterinary clinics benefit most from seamless epoxy or urethane cement flooring systems.
These systems provide:
Non-porous surfaces
Easy sanitation
Chemical resistance to disinfectants
Slip resistance for staff safety
Durability under equipment movement
Surgical prep areas and wash bays typically require urethane cement due to thermal shock and moisture resistance.
In the Greater Tampa region, concrete floors often experience high moisture vapor transmission (MVER).
Without proper moisture testing and mitigation:
Coatings can blister
Floors can peel or delaminate
Odors can become trapped in porous concrete
We perform ASTM-compliant moisture testing and install moisture vapor barrier systems when necessary to prevent failure.
Yes — when fully cured & properly installed with a slip-resistant broadcast texture, epoxy flooring is safe for dogs.
Smooth, glossy floors can be slippery. For pet care environments, we install:
Textured finishes
Quartz or aggregate broadcast systems
Custom traction levels based on activity areas
Safety for both pets and staff is a top priority.
Properly installed, industrial-grade epoxy and urethane systems are resistant to pet urine.
However, thin coatings or improperly prepared floors can absorb moisture and odor over time.
That’s why professional surface preparation and proper system thickness are critical.
Installation timelines depend on:
Facility size
Moisture conditions
System type
Typical timelines:
Epoxy systems: 2–4 days
Urethane cement systems: 2–5 days
Polyaspartic systems: 1–2 days
Polyaspartic coatings are often used when minimal downtime is required.
The most sanitary flooring systems are:
Seamless epoxy systems
Urethane cement systems
These systems eliminate grout lines and joints where bacteria can accumulate.
Seamless flooring supports daily disinfection protocols and long-term hygiene compliance.
Yes.
Grooming areas frequently have:
Standing water
Soap residue
Hair buildup
Slip-resistant epoxy or urethane systems reduce fall risks and improve workplace safety.
We customize traction levels based on workflow and cleaning methods.
Odor issues typically come from porous or cracked concrete.
We solve this by:
Mechanically profiling the concrete
Repairing cracks and joints
Installing a seamless, non-porous system
Adding moisture mitigation if required
Sealed, seamless flooring prevents urine from penetrating the slab.
Polyaspartic flooring is an excellent option when:
Fast turnaround is required
UV stability is important
The facility cannot close for extended periods
It offers durability and rapid curing but must be installed with proper slip resistance for pet safety.
When properly installed and maintained:
Epoxy systems: 7–12+ years
Urethane cement systems: 10–15+ years
Polyaspartic systems: 7–10+ years
System lifespan depends on traffic, cleaning practices, and substrate condition.
In many cases, yes.
Florida’s humidity and slab conditions often require moisture mitigation to ensure long-term coating performance.
Moisture vapor barrier systems are frequently installed beneath epoxy or urethane cement coatings.
