Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Salem, Oregon

Salem, Oregon’s capital, is crowned by the State Capitol and the gilded Oregon Pioneer statue atop its dome. Willamette University, the oldest university in the West, sits right next door, and Bush’s Pasture Park preserves a Victorian home, rose gardens and oak groves. Riverfront Park follows the Willamette with the hand-carved Salem’s Riverfront Carousel, the Oregon State Fair fills the fairgrounds each summer, and Silver Falls State Park, with its trail behind waterfalls, is a short drive east.

A long rainy season defines Salem’s climate, and slabs stay damp from fall through spring. Moss and algae thrive on patios, and occasional ice storms make walkways treacherous. Summers are warm and dry. Neighborhoods range from historic homes near downtown with basements to newer subdivisions in South and West Salem with attached garages.

Salem’s Common Projects

• Garages in neighborhoods across South Salem, West Salem and Keizer
• Basements in older homes near downtown
• Government, office and institutional floors
• Food processing and agricultural facilities in the surrounding valley

In the hills of South Salem, sloped lots and clay soils can push water toward foundations, so homes there may benefit from a moisture-tolerant primer under the coating.

The mid-Willamette Valley has a large food processing industry, and those plants need floors that handle washdowns, heat and chemicals. Urethane cement is often the answer. Homeowners usually opt for flake garages, while basement projects start with a moisture test. Compare the Salem contractors listed here and request quotes.
