Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania

Jenkintown is one of the smallest boroughs in Montgomery County, but its walkable downtown along York Road packs in restaurants, shops and a busy SEPTA regional rail station. Surrounded by Abington Township, it sits close to Alverthorpe Park and the Grey Towers Castle on the campus of Arcadia University in neighboring Glenside. Many homes date to the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with stone and brick construction, front porches and detached garages.

Old Homes, Damp Basements

Older homes in Jenkintown and the surrounding townships tend to have basements with stone walls and thin, aging floors. Humid summers push moisture through, and some properties sit low enough to collect water after heavy rain. Winters are not as harsh as in the mountains, but they still bring regular freeze–thaw cycles and salt from local streets. Over time, that combination leaves garages and steps cracked, scaled and stained.

Popular projects in and around Jenkintown:

• Basements turned into laundry, storage or play spaces with moisture-tolerant coatings
• Detached and alley garages finished with durable flake systems
• Front porches, steps and patios sealed or resurfaced
• Restaurants, salons and retail spaces on York Road

Preparation is essential with older concrete. Grinding removes old paint and contaminants, and patching fills cracks so the new coating can bond. Moisture testing helps decide on the right primer. Browse the Jenkintown contractors listed here, compare their services, and reach out for estimates.
