What does a commercial epoxy floor coating involve?
A commercial and industrial epoxy floor coating in Pleasanton, CA is a resin and hardener mixed and laid over your concrete, where it cures into a rigid, seamless surface that grips the slab and stands up to forklifts, heavy equipment and pallet traffic. Most of the planning comes down to how long you can close the floor.
If your floor is coming apart under daily traffic, you're probably also wondering how long you'd have to shut down to fix it. The price mostly moves with the size of the floor, the shape the slab is in, how much grinding and repair it needs, and which system and topcoat you pick, while the schedule turns on how long the space can close and when the moisture test and prep can happen. I put your own number in writing after I've seen the slab.
How we install commercial and industrial epoxy floor coatings
The first thing I ask on a shop or warehouse floor is how long you can close it, because that answer picks the system. Floor system makers generally require a moisture test on the concrete before installation, so we get the test and the prep on the calendar early and set the coating date on real numbers. Then our crew grinds the slab and repairs what the grinding turns up, since the coating needs clean, open concrete to bond to, lays down the coats and keeps the floor closed until it's ready for your traffic.
We also do garage floor coatings for homes and residential buildings, with the same testing and grinding up front. When a space can't close for long, polyaspartic floor coatings are the faster-curing choice we'll walk you through.
Epoxy system for heavy traffic
This suits warehouses and plants that run forklifts, heavy equipment and pallets and can plan a real shutdown. Depending on the system, an epoxy floor may stay out of service for several days, so it fits best when the closure can be scheduled well ahead.
Polyaspartic for short shutdowns
This suits shops and tenant spaces that can't stay closed. Polyaspartic systems cure fast enough to go back into service within hours, so when the downtime window is tight, that usually settles the choice.
Planning a commercial epoxy floor coating in Pleasanton
In Pleasanton, an owner who plans to build, alter or repair a building applies to the city's Building and Safety Official for a permit first. Interior changes to an existing commercial tenant space that affect its layout, its occupancy use or its building systems need a tenant improvement permit, so if your new floor is part of that kind of build-out, the permit can set the start date. Whether a coating job on its own needs a permit is the city's call, so we check with them before we start, and if one is needed we take care of getting it.
We're based in Pleasanton and take commercial jobs in the cities around it. Most calls are tenant spaces, shops and light industrial floors that have to stay open, and we plan the shutdown the same way on jobs in Dublin and Livermore.
Why Pleasanton businesses call Artisan Epoxy Flooring of Pleasanton for commercial floors
I see the slab myself
I come out to look at every job, and I run the crew that does the work. The person who heard how you run the space is the one on site making sure the prep gets done right.
Prep comes first, since 2021
I started this business in 2021 after years running a commercial cleaning company, working on floors that peeled and wore through because of what happened before the coating went down. That's why we'd rather spend the time testing and grinding than watch a floor start lifting.
Licensed and fully insured
California's license board has a Synthetic Products class whose work includes epoxy and resin application, and a Flooring class that covers preparing surfaces for flooring. We're licensed and fully insured, and I'm happy to go over that on the first visit.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a commercial epoxy floor cost in Pleasanton?
There's no set price until I've seen the slab, because the cost turns on things a phone call can't measure. The big ones are the floor's size, how much grinding and crack repair the concrete needs, which system and topcoat fit your traffic, and how tight your shutdown window is. After the site visit I put your price in writing.
How long does it take to install a commercial epoxy floor?
It takes longer than the coating alone, because epoxy needs careful surface preparation and the schedule has to cover prep, coating and curing. How long the floor stays out of service after that depends on the system you choose, so ask any installer how long theirs keeps your floor closed before you book a date.
What causes an epoxy floor coating to peel or lift off concrete?
Moisture in the slab is often the reason, since excess moisture can make a coating debond, or lose its grip, break down or grow microbes underneath. That's why we test before the coating date and set the date on the results.
How do I get my building ready for a concrete moisture test?
Keep the space at its normal operating conditions before the test. One meter maker's guide says the standard humidity test needs the slab and the air above it at normal use for at least 48 hours first, so if the heat or air has been off during a vacancy, tell us when you call.
Are old concrete moisture test results still good for a new floor coating?
They're a useful starting point, but a moisture test shows the slab's condition only at the time it was taken and only in the spots tested. If your results are from a while back or covered part of the floor, send them over and we'll go through whether the coating date needs a fresh test.
What is the best way to keep an epoxy floor from yellowing in a sunny space?
Ask whether a urethane topcoat suits your floor, because urethane topcoats tend to hold their look longer and resist yellowing and gloss loss from sunlight or aggressive cleaning. Bring it up on the first visit if your space gets strong sun or a heavy cleaning routine, since the topcoat is part of choosing the system.
