Commercial applications
Government facility flooring
Seamless epoxy, concrete and urethane floors for stations, apparatus bays, concourses, service areas and other public facilities.
Overview
Robust floors for public facilities
Schools, concourses, service areas, apparatus bays, fire stations, police stations and other government facilities need robust flooring. Floors in areas with regular traffic from staff and vehicles have to stay smooth and dependable.
We provide seamless epoxy, concrete and urethane flooring that resists chemicals and battery acid and offers durability and abrasion resistance. Custom striping and graphics can show where apparatus should park and how foot traffic should flow.
From mess halls and locker rooms to restrooms and concourses, seamless floors can be installed throughout a facility. For maintenance facilities, fuel storage, hangars, equipment bays, hospitals or correctional facilities, call to talk about which system suits your area.

Around the building
Public, operational and support areas
Government buildings combine public spaces, vehicle and equipment areas and staff support spaces. Each needs a different balance of appearance, durability and easy cleaning.
Apparatus and equipment bays
Vehicle traffic, chemicals and battery acid. Seamless epoxy or urethane floors, with striping that shows where apparatus parks.
Concourses and public areas
Heavy foot traffic and a public face. Polished concrete or seamless epoxy floors that look professional and are easy to keep clean.
Mess halls and kitchens
Spills, grease and frequent washing. Seamless systems such as epoxy quartz or urethane cement, depending on the conditions.
Locker rooms and restrooms
Moisture and constant cleaning. Seamless floors without grout lines, such as epoxy quartz.
Maintenance facilities
Vehicles, fluids and tools. Hard coatings chosen for chemical and abrasion resistance.
Offices and administrative areas
Steady foot traffic and a tidy appearance. Polished concrete or epoxy finishes.
Systems
Systems for government facilities
Seamless epoxy, urethane and polished concrete floors are used throughout government facilities. They resist chemicals and battery acid, and custom striping and graphics can show where apparatus should park and how foot traffic should flow.
Existing floors and upkeep
Restoring and caring for public floors
An existing public floor can often be restored rather than replaced, and seamless floors keep routine upkeep simple.
Restoring an existing floor
- Worn or peeling coatings are removed by grinding before a new system goes down
- Cracks and damaged concrete are repaired first
- Dull polished concrete can be brought back by re-polishing
- The condition of the slab decides which steps are needed
See concrete repair.
Routine care
Seamless epoxy and polished concrete floors do not need stripping or waxing. Regular sweeping, a neutral cleaner and prompt cleanup of spills keep them in good condition.
Grit tracked in through busy doors wears finishes fastest, so concourses and lobbies need the most attention. See the floor care guide.
FAQ
Government facility flooring questions
What floor works in a fire station apparatus bay?
Seamless epoxy or urethane systems that resist chemicals and battery acid are used in apparatus bays, and custom striping can show where each apparatus should park. The system depends on the vehicles, how the bay is washed and the condition of the slab.
How do striping and graphics help in a public building?
Custom striping and graphics can show where apparatus and equipment should park and how foot traffic should flow, which helps keep vehicle areas and walkways clearly separated.
Can different parts of the building have different floors?
Yes. A building might use polished concrete in concourses and offices, epoxy in apparatus bays and epoxy quartz in locker rooms and restrooms. The mix is confirmed after evaluating each area.
Can work be phased in a building that stays in use?
Project phasing may be considered depending on the areas involved, the system and site conditions. Return-to-service times depend on the product and the site, and a schedule for your project comes with the estimate.
