Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Akron, Ohio

Akron built its name as the Rubber Capital of the World, home to Goodyear, Firestone, Goodrich and General Tire, and that history still shows in the Goodyear headquarters, the Goodyear blimp hangar and the grand Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens built by the company’s founder. Today the University of Akron sits beside downtown, the Akron RubberDucks play at Canal Park, the Akron Zoo draws families, and the Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath Trail runs right through the city on its way north into Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Summit County gets more snow than central Ohio thanks to its position near the edge of the Lake Erie snow belt, and municipalities lean hard on salt. Akron’s hilly, river-carved terrain also sends runoff toward foundations, and the city’s older housing stock, much of it built for factory workers in the early twentieth century, includes plenty of damp basements and aging garage slabs. Polyaspartic and polyurea coatings hold up well against salt and freeze-thaw, while basements benefit from primers designed for moisture.

Akron-area projects often include:

• Detached garages behind older homes in neighborhoods like Highland Square, Firestone Park and Goodyear Heights
• Basement floors converted into workshops, gyms and laundry rooms
• Attached garages in surrounding suburbs such as Fairlawn, Stow and Green
• Commercial and light industrial floors in former manufacturing buildings

The Akron contractors below each offer their own mix of systems and finishes, so check their service areas and photos, then request quotes from those that fit your project.
