How Much Does Commercial Epoxy Flooring Cost?
Commercial properties need durable, high quality floor coverings, and epoxy flooring is a perfect fit. Epoxy flooring is a paint coating developed from two materials that, when combined, result in a quick hardening material that creates a very durable high or semi-gloss surface.
Epoxy is best used on concrete, cement, metal, or wood floor surfaces. This lends itself perfectly to commercial flooring surfaces like commercial concrete garages, manufacturing and industrial facilities, warehouses, retail stores, education facilities, and more.
Epoxy as a commercial flooring solution is a great option for several reasons. But, first let’s discuss how much epoxy flooring costs.
Epoxy Flooring Cost Depends on Several Factors
Ultimately, your commercial epoxy floor cost is going to depend on several factors. Costs vary from job to job. Some factors that determine the cost of a floor include:
- Floor condition
- Floor type
- Job site
- Square footage
- Timing
According to Home Advisor, epoxy flooring costs range from $1,489 to $3,153 for a concrete floor in 2021. Installation for commercial epoxy flooring ranged from $3 to $12 per square foot. If you have a floor made of a different material, or current floors in bad condition, the price can vary even more. Similarly, timing of your job could affect the cost of material.
Epoxy Flooring Installation Costs
An epoxy flooring installation starts with the floor. Most commercial projects already have concrete floors or the foundation of the building can be used. A new slab may need to be poured, but if not, the existing floor will need to be extensively cleaned and dried before any epoxy can be installed. Any dirt or moisture on the surface will decrease the lifespan and integrity of the resin.
Since most commercial buildings have existing concrete floors, this cleaning and drying cost is typically rolled into the project.
The next step is determining which resin flooring solution to choose from: epoxy or urethane. These materials vary in price per square foot, and those prices typically change depending on size of the building.
The next and most important thing to consider with your project is choosing a great commercial epoxy flooring contractor to work with. A good contractor will give you a fair price and deliver a great job.
