Midcentury Homes and Working Floors
Epoxy flooring in Lombard reaches further than you might expect. The village is known for Lilacia Park and a lilac festival held since 1930, but Wikipedia also describes an economy built on retail, manufacturing, hospitality and professional services. We coat residential garages and basements, and we also look at plant and warehouse floors.
Three decades of building
ACS figures summarized by Point2Homes show 17.3% of Lombard housing was built in the 1950s, 18.6% in the 1960s and 17.8% in the 1970s. Ranches, split-levels and raised ranches from those years usually have attached garages with slabs that are now 50 to 70 years old. Expect us to talk about salt scaling, joint cracks and an old sealer or paint layer that needs removal.
Large condo and apartment buildings
About 21% of Lombard's housing units are in buildings with 50 or more units, per the same ACS summary. Condo associations and property managers often need coatings for storage rooms, trash rooms, bike rooms or garage levels. Those floors take carts, bins and wet traffic. We quote them in phases and plan around notice periods for residents.
Manufacturing employers
Wikipedia's 2024 employer list puts Life Safety Hardware at 4,500 workers and Program Productions at 3,300, with Microsystems at 1,000. Assembly floors, shipping docks and break rooms in those kinds of operations need floors that hold up to pallet jacks and frequent cleaning. Thick epoxy or urethane systems, safety striping and marked aisles are typical requests.
Small changes that help at home
For a midcentury garage, a few choices make a big difference:
- A medium flake blend hides salt rings and dust.
- A grit additive keeps the step down from the house safe when wet.
- A cove or clean edge at the walls helps rinse water run out.
We explain each option on the quote so you can pick what you want.
Planning around the weather
Unheated garages are easiest to coat between late spring and early fall, when the concrete stays warm enough to cure a coating. We schedule with that in mind.

Lombard Questions
Can you coat a condo building's storage rooms in Lombard?
Yes. We quote by area, plan the work in phases and help you set a schedule residents can follow.
My raised ranch garage has an old painted floor. What happens to the paint?
We grind it off. New coatings need bare, sound concrete to bond well.
Do you coat manufacturing floors?
Yes. We look at forklift and cart traffic, chemicals and cleaning, then recommend a system with striping if needed.
What time of year suits coating an unheated garage?
From late spring through early fall, when the slab and air are warm enough for coatings to cure.
