Epoxy Flooring in Wheaton, IL

Epoxy flooring in Wheaton often comes back to the 1970s. ACS figures summarized by Point2Homes show 28.3% of the city's housing was built in that decade and 19.8% in the 1980s. So nearly half of Wheaton's homes have garage slabs that are now 35 to 55 years old. That is a good age for a coating, as long as the prep is done right.

What a 1970s slab looks like now

After decades of snow and salt, a typical floor shows:

• Fine surface scaling just inside the door.
• Control joints that have widened.
• Oil stains under where the cars sit.
• A smooth, dense patch where someone tried a DIY coating.

We grind, repair joints, clean out oil and fill cracks before any primer goes down. The prep steps are listed on the quote.

Public, school and campus floors

Wheaton is the DuPage County seat. Wikipedia's 2022 list shows the DuPage County Government Center as the top employer with 2,124 workers, followed by Community Unit School District 200 with 1,785 and the Wheaton Park District with 983. Wheaton College adds 794 more. Maintenance shops, storage rooms and service areas in public and campus buildings need floors that take carts and cleaning equipment. We can walk those spaces and recommend systems.

A higher, drier setting

Wheaton sits at about 748 feet, higher than many towns closer to the lake. That does not mean every basement is dry. We still test slab moisture, especially in the older homes; about 8.9% of the city's housing predates 1940.

Finishes for active families

With 57.5% of households being married couples, per Wikipedia, many Wheaton garages hold bikes, sports equipment and an extra fridge. A flake floor with a grit topcoat handles that mix well and stays easy to sweep.
