Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Leeds, Alabama

Leeds is a small city east of Birmingham, spread across Jefferson, St. Clair and Shelby counties. It is home to the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum, which holds one of the largest motorcycle collections in the world, and the adjoining Barber Motorsports Park, a road course that hosts IndyCar and motorcycle races. Leeds is also the hometown of basketball great Charles Barkley, and its historic downtown and surrounding hills give it a small-town feel close to the city.

Ridges, Clay and Rain

Leeds sits in a valley between ridges at the southern end of the Appalachians, with red clay and rocky soils over limestone. Clay swells after heavy rain and shrinks in summer heat, cracking driveways and garage floors, and limestone can lead to uneven settlement. Homes on slopes may have basements or lower levels that stay damp. Summers are hot and humid, and winters bring occasional hard freezes.

• Garages and workshops for motorcycle and car enthusiasts, finished with chemical-resistant flake systems
• Basements and lower levels in hillside homes, primed for moisture
• Garages in newer subdivisions, coated with UV-stable polyaspartic topcoats
• Small commercial, industrial and retail floors in the area

Shop floors that see oil, fuel and brake fluid benefit from a high-solids epoxy base with a polyaspartic or urethane topcoat. Ask contractors about crack repair and moisture testing before coating.
