Residential · Albuquerque, NM
Elite Epoxy Albuquerque has served Albuquerque since 2016, installing and repairing epoxy countertop coatings that look like new without a full tear-out. We resurface laminate, tile, wood, and solid-surface tops with durable 2-part epoxy and professional clear coats for kitchens, baths, bars, and commercial counters.
A long-lasting epoxy countertop starts with prep, not the pour. We protect cabinets, backsplashes, sinks, appliances, and floors with plastic sheeting and tape, then degrease and remove silicones and waxes that cause fisheyes. Damaged seams, chips, and low spots are rebuilt with epoxy filler, and we profile the surface by sanding and mechanical abrasion so the coating can chemically and mechanically bond. For tile countertops, we skim-coat and level grout lines when needed, then apply the correct primer or tie-coat based on the existing substrate and condition.
New Mexico sun, indoor HVAC swings, and daily hot and cold cycling can stress countertop coatings, so we control temperature, humidity, and cure windows to reduce amine blush and surface defects. We install UV-stable topcoats where appropriate to limit yellowing and protect color, metallics, and stone-look effects. Finish options include high-gloss, satin, or matte, with textures that can add slip resistance for bartops and service counters without feeling gritty. Edges, sink cutouts, and seams get extra attention, because that is where water intrusion and wear start first.
Albuquerque customers choose us because we treat countertops like a controlled coating project, not a craft experiment. We measure, mask cleanly, and mix in precise ratios, then apply with notched spreaders, squeegees, rollers, and heat tools to release bubbles and level the film. Commercial clients appreciate off-hour scheduling and clean job sites, and homeowners like clear options on colors, veining, metallic pigments, and aggregate effects. When repairs are the right call, we match sheen and color as closely as possible and blend transitions so the fix does not stand out.
At the walkthrough, we check gloss and color consistency under task lighting, verify edges and sink perimeters, and confirm there are no pinholes, fisheyes, or rough spots. You get straightforward care guidance (cleaners to use and avoid, cutting-board and hot-pan habits, and when the surface is ready for light use versus full service). We also provide a written scope and a free written estimate up front so you know exactly what is included, from prep through topcoat. If you have an existing epoxy countertop that is scratched, dull, or peeling, we will tell you whether a recoat, spot repair, or full resurface is the most cost-effective path.

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.
