Before a single coat of epoxy goes down, floor preparation makes or breaks the job. At Total Floor Prep, we specialize in industrial-grade surface prep and concrete repair to ensure your epoxy or urethane flooring system bonds correctly and performs for the long haul. Whether you're installing a new floor or repairing an old one, we set the foundation for success.

Why Proper Floor Preparation is Essential

A strong epoxy floor starts beneath the surface. Without proper prep, even the highest-quality coatings will peel, bubble, or delaminate.

Here’s why professional floor prep matters:

  • No Prep = No Bond: Epoxy coatings need a clean, profiled surface to adhere correctly.

  • Good Prep = Long-Term Performance: Well-prepared concrete resists cracking, chipping, and moisture intrusion.

  • Poor Prep = Wasted Investment: Skipping prep means redoing the floor sooner than expected—costing you time and money.

Our Specialized Floor Preparation Services

We use the best surface prep techniques designed for epoxy floor installations, concrete coating systems, and industrial-grade durability.

Shot Blasting – Heavy-Duty Surface Profiling

  • Ideal for warehouses, factories, and high-traffic industrial areas.

  • Removes old coatings, oils, dirt, and contaminants quickly and thoroughly.

  • Creates an aggressive profile for maximum epoxy or urethane adhesion.

Diamond Grinding – Smooth & Polished Surface Prep

  • Perfect for retail, office, and commercial flooring systems.

  • Levels uneven surfaces and removes minor coatings and imperfections.

  • Leaves a clean, slightly roughened finish for light-to-medium duty coatings.

We deliver precision floor prep and concrete repair across Long Island—from industrial plants to showrooms and retail spaces. Our work ensures your floor coatings go down right—and stay that way.

Whether you're installing epoxy in a warehouse or refinishing a showroom, start strong with professional prep.

Concrete Floor Repair & Restoration Services

Epoxy Mortar Patching – Strengthen Damaged Slabs

  • We repair cracks, pits, and broken concrete using industrial epoxy mortar.

  • Stronger than traditional concrete—essential for load-bearing zones and heavy equipment areas.

Additional Concrete Preparation Steps

Every successful floor coating project includes thorough prep beyond blasting or grinding:

  • Moisture Testing: We test for vapor emissions—excess moisture leads to coating failure.

  • Surface Cleaning & Degreasing: All oil, dirt, and residue must be removed for proper bonding.

  • Priming (When Needed): Some substrates require a specialty primer to promote adhesion and block out moisture or contaminants.
