Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Queens Village, New York

Queens Village is a residential neighborhood in eastern Queens, right along the border with Nassau County. Unlike much of the city, it is dominated by detached and semi-detached one- and two-family homes, many of them Tudor-style or brick houses from the 1920s through the 1950s, with driveways and garages tucked behind them. The neighborhood has its own Long Island Rail Road station, a diverse, largely Caribbean-American community, and Belmont Park sits just over the county line in Elmont.

Concrete here deals with the typical New York mix of winter freeze–thaw cycles, salted streets and slushy driveways, plus humid summers and heavy rainstorms that can overwhelm drainage and send water into basements. Many homes in the neighborhood have finished or partially finished basements with older slabs, along with detached garages and paved backyards that have seen decades of weather.

A Neighborhood of Basements and Back Garages

Because so many Queens Village houses are older, the concrete often needs some repair before it is coated. Cracks get filled, uneven spots get ground down, and moisture gets tested so the right primer can be chosen. Once that groundwork is done, a coated floor seals out water and salt and is far easier to keep clean.

• Basements used as living space, laundry rooms or rental units, sealed with moisture-mitigating epoxy
• Detached garages in back of the house, finished with durable flake systems
• Driveways, patios and backyard slabs refreshed with overlays or protective sealers
• Storefronts and small businesses along the neighborhood’s commercial avenues
