High-performance epoxy flooring for garages, basements & commercial spaces — plus professional concrete grinding, coating removal, glue removal, and floor leveling. The right prep makes all the difference.
Epoxy Flooring
Industrial-grade epoxy coatings for residential garages, basements, and commercial spaces. Durable, chemical-resistant, and dramatically better-looking than bare concrete.
Transform your garage floor with a high-gloss, chemical-resistant epoxy coating. Resists oil, road salt, and tire marks. Full diamond-grind prep included before any coating is applied.
Turn a plain concrete basement floor into a finished, bright, waterproof surface. Ideal for rec rooms, home gyms, laundry rooms, and legal basement suites. Works seamlessly with our waterproofing systems.
Heavy-duty epoxy and polyurea systems for workshops, warehouses, retail spaces, and food-service environments. Built for heavy foot traffic and forklift loads with fast cure times to minimize downtime.
Surface Preparation
A perfectly applied epoxy coating fails without proper surface prep. DryCore's grinding and preparation services ensure maximum adhesion and a flawless result every time.
Diamond grinding to open the concrete pores for maximum epoxy adhesion, level high spots, remove surface laitance, and create the ideal profile for coating systems.
Removal of old adhesive residue, vinyl tile glue, carpet tack strips, failed paint coatings, and existing epoxy systems — leaving a clean, bondable surface.
Grinding down high spots and filling low areas with polymer-modified leveling compounds. Essential for uneven concrete slabs before epoxy, tile, or LVP installation.
Specialized surface prep for epoxy applications — creating the correct CSP (Concrete Surface Profile) using diamond grinding equipment to ensure optimal mechanical bond.
Full surface preparation packages for any floor coating project — crack repair, joint filling, edge detailing, and dust containment. We handle everything before the coating goes down.
Removal of existing failed coatings, old paint, latex sealers, and urethane topcoats. We strip the surface back to bare concrete and prepare it properly for the new system.
Why Prep Matters
The single most common reason epoxy floors bubble, peel, or delaminate is inadequate surface preparation. Rolling epoxy onto a smooth, dusty, or contaminated floor — no matter how expensive the product — guarantees failure within months.
DryCore uses professional diamond grinding equipment to open the concrete profile, remove all contaminants, and create the mechanical bond surface that epoxy needs to last 10–15+ years.

How It Works
We inspect the floor condition, existing coatings, moisture levels, and any damage before providing a firm written quote with no hidden costs.
Remove old coatings, open the surface profile, and create a clean mechanical bond surface using professional diamond grinding equipment.
Fill cracks and joints, apply moisture-barrier primer for basements, and allow proper cure time before the base coat goes down.
Apply base epoxy coat, decorative flake broadcast (if selected), and UV-stable polyurea topcoat for maximum durability and longevity.
