Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in New Bern, North Carolina

New Bern is North Carolina’s second-oldest town and its first colonial capital, set where the Neuse and Trent rivers meet. Tryon Palace, a reconstruction of the colonial governor’s residence, and its gardens draw visitors year-round. The town is also the birthplace of Pepsi-Cola, and the bear sculptures scattered around downtown are a nod to the town’s Swiss namesake. Union Point Park overlooks the rivers, and the historic district is full of 18th- and 19th-century homes.

New Bern’s waterfront location brings real challenges for concrete. The town sits low along wide tidal rivers, and Hurricane Florence in 2018 caused major flooding in many neighborhoods. High humidity, a shallow water table and salt-influenced air all affect slabs.

Coatings for a River Town

Moisture is the biggest concern. A contractor should test slabs for moisture vapor and use primers designed for damp concrete. Outdoors, strong sun and summer heat call for UV-stable, slip-resistant finishes. Older homes in the historic district may have aging concrete that needs careful repair before coating.

Common New Bern projects include:

• Garages and ground-level storage in waterfront and river neighborhoods
• Patios, pool decks and boat docks with slip-resistant coatings
• Restaurant and retail floors downtown
• Workshops, marine storage and service buildings
