Commercial · Miami, FL
Elite Epoxy Miami has served Miami since 2016, installing and repairing commercial kitchen epoxy flooring built for grease, heat, and nonstop foot traffic. We deliver cleanable, slip-resistant floors for restaurants, commissaries, food processing, and institutional kitchens with minimal downtime planning.
Proper prep decides whether commercial kitchen epoxy flooring lasts or peels. We start with substrate testing (ASTM F2170 relative humidity, pH checks, and a sounding check for delamination), then diamond-grind or shot-blast to the right concrete surface profile (CSP 2-4). Cracks and spalls are repaired with epoxy paste and polyurea joint filler, then we install a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer when needed. From there we build the system, typically a 100% solids epoxy base coat with a broadcast aggregate for traction, or a heavy-duty epoxy mortar where impact and abuse are constant.
Miami kitchens run wet, hot, and greasy, so the finish has to be chemical- and thermal-resistant, not just glossy. For most lines, dish areas, and walk-ins, we recommend urethane cement (polyurethane concrete) with a 3/16 to 1/4 inch build for superior resistance to thermal shock, hot water, and aggressive degreasers. We can add a cove base (4-6 inches) and seal wall-to-floor transitions to help sanitation crews and reduce bacterial harborage points. Texture is tuned to the space, a light orange-peel for food prep zones, or a more aggressive slip-resistant broadcast for wet entry and dish areas, finished with a chemical-resistant polyurethane or polyaspartic topcoat.
Miami operators choose Elite Epoxy Miami because our process is built around foodservice realities: short windows, strict cleanliness, and safety inspections. We schedule around off-hours, protect equipment and drains, and control dust with HEPA vacuums on our grinders. Every job gets clear system options (epoxy broadcast, epoxy mortar, urethane cement) with thickness targets, cure schedules, and chemical resistance expectations spelled out. As a licensed and insured contractor, we provide a written scope and coordinate details like floor drains, thresholds, expansion joints, and freezer transitions.
Before turnover, we do a walkthrough to confirm slope to drains, cove continuity, and uniform traction, then verify film build where applicable and address any punch-list items. You get a written estimate, a system description (primer, base, aggregate, topcoat), and care guidance for scrubbers, degreasers, and recoat intervals. For repairs, we color-match where possible, route and fill cracks correctly, and tie new material into the existing floor to reduce visible seams. The result is a commercial kitchen epoxy flooring system that cleans fast, grips underfoot, and holds up to daily washdowns and heavy rolling loads.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate with a recommended coating system, prep scope, and scheduling notes after an on-site assessment.
Sometimes, but only after testing adhesion and identifying the existing material. In many cases we mechanically remove failing paint or coatings with diamond grinding to avoid delamination.
Timing depends on the system and conditions. Many projects allow light foot traffic within about 24 hours, with vehicle traffic typically after 48-72 hours, but we confirm cure windows in writing for your install.
Yes. We typically chase, clean, and fill cracks with epoxy or polyurea repair materials, then grind flush before applying the coating system. Some movement cracks can telegraph over time, which we explain up front.
Sweep or dust-mop routinely and wet mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid harsh acids and soap-heavy products that leave residue, and use pads under jacks or kickstands to prevent point-load damage.
Commercial kitchen epoxy flooring has to do more than look clean, it must withstand grease, boiling water, harsh chemicals, and constant rolling traffic while staying safe underfoot. Elite Epoxy Miami installs and repairs kitchen floor systems for restaurants, commissaries, breweries, hospitals, schools, and food production spaces. We evaluate your concrete, recommend the right resin system, and install it with the prep, thickness, and detailing needed for dependable performance in real service conditions.
Choosing the right commercial kitchen epoxy flooring system depends on what the floor sees every day. Standard 100% solids epoxy with a broadcast aggregate works well for many prep areas, dry storage, and hallways where chemical exposure is moderate and temperatures are stable. In high-heat and high-moisture zones, like cook lines, dish rooms, and areas exposed to hot water or steam, urethane cement (polyurethane concrete) is often the better choice because it handles thermal shock and resists common kitchen chemicals.
Repairs require the same discipline as new installs. We identify the cause first, moisture vapor, poor prep, moving cracks, or failing joints, then remove unsound coating, grind to sound concrete, and rebuild the system with compatible materials. Common fixes include epoxy mortar patching for impact damage, polyurea joint filler for control joints, and recoats with chemical-resistant urethane or polyaspartic topcoats to restore cleanability and traction.
If you need commercial kitchen epoxy flooring in Miami, we will walk the space, measure conditions, and provide a clear written plan with system options, thickness targets, and a cure timeline. You get a floor designed to clean quickly, reduce slip risk, and stand up to daily washdowns without constant patchwork.
