Epoxy Floor & Concrete Coating Contractors in Texas City, Texas

Texas City sits on the western shore of Galveston Bay, and its best-known landmark is the Texas City Dike, a levee that reaches miles out into the bay and draws anglers, birders and families looking for a breeze and a sunset. The city is also a major refining and petrochemical center, and its history includes the 1947 Texas City Disaster, remembered at a memorial park. A hurricane levee system protects much of the city from storm surge.

Bayfront humidity and salt

Life on Galveston Bay means salt air, high humidity and the constant possibility of tropical storms. Bare concrete absorbs salt and moisture, which can damage the surface and corrode reinforcing steel. The water table is shallow, clay soils swell and shrink, and moisture rising through slabs can cause coatings to blister if the wrong system is used. Moisture testing, a vapor-tolerant primer and a salt-resistant, textured topcoat make a durable combination.
