Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Kalamazoo, Michigan

Kalamazoo is home to Western Michigan University and Kalamazoo College, and the city’s downtown centers on Bronson Park, with its fountains and summer festivals. The Kalamazoo River runs along the east side of downtown, the Kalamazoo Mall was the first outdoor pedestrian mall in the country, and Bell’s Brewery helped put the city on the craft beer map. The Air Zoo in nearby Portage and the Kalamazoo Nature Center north of town round out the attractions.

Southwest Michigan Weather

Kalamazoo sits close enough to Lake Michigan to catch lake-effect snow, and winters bring frequent freezing and thawing. Bare concrete absorbs water and salt, then breaks down, leaving garage floors pitted and stained. Sandy and gravelly glacial soils in the area drain well in some neighborhoods, but others sit on heavier soil that holds moisture. Older homes near downtown and the universities often have basements where moisture vapor comes through the slab.

• Garages in neighborhoods across Kalamazoo and Portage
• Basements in historic homes near downtown and the Vine and Stuart neighborhoods
• Breweries, taprooms and restaurants
• Rental housing near the universities

Breweries and restaurants need floors that resist moisture, cleaning chemicals and constant traffic, and urethane cement and epoxy systems are common choices. Rental property owners appreciate floors that stand up to tenants and clean easily between leases.
