Why Your Basement Deserves a Professional Coating

Basements face unique challenges that off-the-shelf paint simply cannot handle. Our epoxy systems are engineered to combat below-grade conditions.

💧

Waterproof Membrane

Our basement floor coating creates a seamless vapor barrier that blocks moisture migration from the slab, preventing that musty smell and damp feeling underfoot.

🛡️

Mold & Mildew Defense

The non-porous finish eliminates the microscopic crevices where mold colonies thrive, keeping your basement air cleaner and safer for your family.

🎨

Decorative Finishes

Choose from solid colors, metallic swirls, or chip-flake blends to match your vision—whether it's a home gym, media room, or workshop retreat.

⚡

Quick Return to Service

Most basement floor coating projects allow light foot traffic within 24 hours, so you're not displaced from your home for days.

🔬

Moisture Testing Included

Before any coating goes down, we perform calcium chloride and relative humidity tests to ensure proper adhesion and long-term performance.

📐

Crack & Joint Repair

We fill control joints and patch hairline cracks with flexible polyurea so the finished surface stays smooth and sealed even as your foundation shifts.

Transform Your Basement Into a Living Space

Many homeowners in the DFW metroplex overlook their basements because of cold, damp concrete floors. A professionally applied basement floor coating changes that entirely, giving you usable square footage that adds real value to your property.

Our epoxy systems bond directly to the concrete substrate, creating a monolithic surface that resists hydrostatic pressure from below while looking spectacular from above.

Our Basement Coating Process

A methodical approach ensures your basement floor coating lasts for decades, not just seasons.

Moisture Assessment

We test your slab for moisture vapor transmission and identify any active leaks or drainage concerns before committing to a coating system.

Surface Preparation

Diamond grinding removes laitance, old sealers, and contaminants while profiling the concrete for maximum mechanical bond strength.

Primer & Coating

A moisture-mitigating primer seals the slab, followed by your chosen epoxy system—applied in controlled layers for consistent thickness.

Topcoat & Cure

A UV-stable polyaspartic or polyurethane topcoat locks in color and provides abrasion resistance. We verify cure before handing back your space.

Basement Floor Coating FAQ

Answers to common questions about coating basement floors in the DFW area.

Can epoxy be applied to a damp basement floor?

It depends on the severity. Minor moisture vapor can be managed with a moisture-mitigating primer that tolerates up to 25 lbs of vapor transmission per 1,000 sq ft. Active water intrusion must be addressed with drainage solutions first. We always perform moisture testing to determine the right approach.

What does moisture testing involve?

We use two industry-standard methods: the calcium chloride test (ASTM F1869) measures moisture vapor emission rate over 72 hours, and the relative humidity probe test (ASTM F2170) reads moisture levels within the slab. Together, these give us a complete picture of your basement's moisture profile.

What is the best coating for a basement floor?

For most DFW basements, we recommend 100% solids epoxy with a moisture-mitigating primer and a polyaspartic topcoat. This combination offers excellent water resistance, durability, and a beautiful finish. For heavy use like home gyms, we may suggest a thicker broadcast system with additional slip resistance.

Does a basement floor coating help prevent mold?

Yes. Bare concrete traps moisture in tiny pores where mold spores colonize. A properly applied epoxy coating seals those pores completely, eliminating the damp micro-environments mold needs to grow. While no coating replaces proper ventilation, it significantly reduces mold-friendly surface area.

How should I prepare my basement before the crew arrives?

Clear the floor of furniture, storage boxes, and personal items. If you have carpet or tile, we can remove it as part of the project. Make sure the space is accessible and that the HVAC or a dehumidifier is running. Our team handles all concrete prep including grinding, patching, and cleaning.
