Commercial · Albuquerque, NM
Commercial epoxy flooring keeps shops, warehouses, and service bays clean, bright, and easy to maintain while standing up to forklifts, carts, and chemical spills. Elite Epoxy Albuquerque has served Albuquerque since 2016, installing and repairing high-build epoxy, polyurethane topcoats, and moisture-tolerant systems for busy facilities.
Every durable commercial epoxy floor starts with correct prep and a sound base. We inspect the slab for laitance, previous coatings, oil contamination, and cracks, then verify concrete profile targets (typically ICRI CSP 2-3 for many epoxy coatings, CSP 3-5 for heavier builds). Mechanical surface prep is done with diamond grinding and vacuum-assisted shot blasting using HEPA filtration to control dust. Cracks and spalls are routed and repaired with 100 percent solids epoxy paste or polyurea joint filler, and we re-establish control and saw-cut joints so movement does not telegraph through the coating.
Albuquerque’s dry climate can still bring moisture vapor transmission through slabs, especially in older buildings and areas with irrigation, wash-down, or below-grade conditions. We test for moisture and alkalinity (ASTM F2170 relative humidity and pH checks) and specify the right primer, including moisture-mitigating epoxy when needed. Finish options are selected for your traffic and cleaning plan: smooth high-gloss for showrooms, orange-peel or broom-finish texture for safer wet areas, and broadcast quartz or vinyl flake for better slip resistance and easier spot repairs. For UV stability and better abrasion resistance, we often topcoat with aliphatic polyurethane or polyaspartic in loading zones and entries.
Albuquerque customers choose us because we build systems around operations, not the other way around. We schedule work in phases to keep aisles, docks, and critical paths open, and we plan cure times, recoat windows, and odor control so you can get back to business. You get straight specs on the coating stack, dry film thickness, and traction approach, plus clear expectations on what epoxy can and cannot hide on a worn slab. When repairs are needed, we focus on bonded fixes, not cosmetic patches, and we match sheen and texture so the floor looks consistent after the work is done.
Before we leave, we do a full walkthrough with your point of contact and verify edges, transitions, joints, and any floor drains or stem walls that need clean terminations. You receive a written scope, product data sheets on the installed materials, care and cleaning guidance (approved degreasers, scrubber pads, and recoat timelines), and a plan for touch-ups in high-wear lanes. We can add safety striping, forklift lane markings, and designated storage zones with epoxy line paint and clear coat protection. The result is a commercial epoxy flooring system that reduces dusting, improves light reflectance, and holds up to daily traffic without constant patching.

Yes. We operate as a professional epoxy contractor and carry insurance, and we provide written estimates and a defined scope before work begins.
We typically diamond-grind for a consistent mechanical profile and stronger adhesion. Acid etching alone is not a substitute for proper surface profiling on most slabs.
Sometimes. We test adhesion and check for peeling, contamination, and incompatible coatings, then grind and recoat if the base is sound. If the old coating is failing, removal and a new system is the reliable option.
A UV-stable topcoat, commonly polyaspartic or aliphatic polyurethane, helps reduce ambering and chalking compared to epoxy exposed to direct sun.
Yes. We install vinyl flake broadcast systems in a range of blends and coverage levels, then lock it in with a clear topcoat in gloss or satin.
Commercial epoxy flooring is one of the most cost-effective ways to protect concrete in warehouses, automotive shops, manufacturing areas, retail backrooms, and medical or food-adjacent spaces where cleanliness matters. A properly installed system seals porous concrete, reduces dusting, improves reflectance for brighter work areas, and provides a surface that can be scrubbed, degreased, and maintained without constant concrete patching. Elite Epoxy Albuquerque installs new systems and performs bonded repairs that restore performance in worn traffic lanes, peeling edges, and damaged control joints.
Our commercial epoxy flooring process starts with substrate evaluation and mechanical prep because adhesion failures almost always trace back to the slab. We remove weak concrete, curing compounds, and old coatings, then repair cracks, spalls, and joints with materials matched to movement and load. From there, we build the coating system to fit your environment, such as a penetrating primer, a high-build epoxy body coat, and a polyurethane or polyaspartic topcoat where UV stability, scuff resistance, and easier cleaning are priorities.
If your facility needs repairs, we identify the cause (moisture, contamination, hot-tire pickup, impact damage, or joint movement) and fix the substrate before recoating. Spot repairs can include feathered transitions, re-broadcasting flake or quartz for consistency, and restoring joint lines so forklifts and pallet jacks do not chip edges. For safety and compliance, we can add slip-resistant aggregate, cove base, and durable floor striping for lanes, exits, and storage zones.
To get an accurate price, we provide a free written estimate after a site visit to confirm square footage, slab condition, and service requirements. You will receive a clear scope of work, the planned coating stack, texture level, and realistic downtime based on cure schedules and temperature. When you need commercial epoxy flooring that holds up to real traffic, we install it the way it is supposed to be installed, from prep to final walkthrough.
Call now or send a request and we will reach out within one business day to schedule your free, no-obligation estimate in Albuquerque. We assess the project, review the details, and give you a written quote before any work starts, so you know exactly what to expect.
