Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Hummelstown, Pennsylvania

Just west of Hershey in Dauphin County, Hummelstown is a historic borough with a tree-lined square and a downtown of brick storefronts. Swatara Creek bends around the edge of town and is popular with paddlers, and Indian Echo Caverns, a show cave carved by the creek, is just outside the borough. Hersheypark, ZooAmerica and the rest of Hershey’s attractions are minutes away, and Harrisburg is an easy commute to the west.

Two things shape concrete around here: water and winter. The Swatara valley is humid, and properties near the creek can deal with wet ground and occasional flooding after big storms. Then, from December through March, the area cycles in and out of freezing weather, and road crews lay down salt and brine on every main street. Unsealed garage floors absorb that salty meltwater and gradually start to flake.

Local Favorites for Coatings

• Garages in growing neighborhoods in South Hanover and Derry townships
• Basements in the borough’s older homes, which often need moisture-tolerant primers
• Covered porches and back patios that see heavy foot traffic
• Restaurants, shops and offices around the square

Homeowners usually choose a flake system with a polyaspartic topcoat for garages because it cures quickly and hides dirt, while basements might get a solid-color epoxy for a bright, clean finish. When you’re ready, compare the contractors listed for Hummelstown and the Hershey area, look at the services they offer, and request a couple of quotes.
