Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Birmingham, Alabama

Birmingham grew up as an iron and steel city at the southern end of the Appalachians, and that history is still visible. Sloss Furnaces, a national historic landmark, preserves a blast furnace complex, and the Vulcan statue stands atop Red Mountain overlooking the city. Railroad Park and Red Mountain Park offer green space downtown and on the ridge, the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute and the 16th Street Baptist Church tell the story of the civil rights movement, and UAB is one of the largest employers in the state.

Hills, Clay and Humidity

Birmingham’s neighborhoods climb ridges and valleys, so many homes sit on slopes with basements or crawlspaces. Red clay soils swell and shrink with the seasons, cracking slabs, and runoff from hills can keep basements damp. Summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild with a few hard freezes, and spring storms can be severe.

• Basements in older homes on the city’s hills, coated after moisture testing and priming
• Garages in neighborhoods from Homewood to the southern suburbs, finished with flake and polyaspartic
• Restaurant, brewery and retail floors in districts like Avondale, Lakeview and downtown
• Industrial, warehouse and medical floors tied to the city’s manufacturing and health care economy

Older slabs in Birmingham’s historic neighborhoods often need grinding and crack repair before coating. Birmingham has a good number of listings, so compare several contractors on this page and request quotes.
