Client and Facility Overview

Located in Rockford, Illinois, this car dealership service area is a high-traffic environment where vehicles are serviced daily. To ensure client safety and maintain excellent service standards, the dealership needed a durable flooring solution. Designed to accommodate multiple vehicles at a time, the industrial space must withstand heavy foot and vehicle traffic, as well as grease, oil and other automotive fluids.

Requested Maintenance

The dealership needed floor maintenance and resurfacing to improve the safety and durability of their service area. The key aspects of the project included industrial degreasing, concrete grinding, and the application of a non-slip epoxy floor with an aggregate addition for extra grip.

Decision Driver and Timing

Safety was the primary driver for the dealership’s decision. The environment's constant exposure to spills and leaks creates potential hazards, making it critical to invest in an effective flooring solution. The project was scheduled during off-hours to minimize disruption to the service operations.

Scope of Work

Industrial Degreasing: Heavy-duty degreasers were used to break down the build-up of dirt, spills and drips.
Concrete Grinding: Grinding the concrete surface to open its pores and make it receptive to the epoxy coating.
Adding Aggregate: Specialized aggregate is added to the epoxy mix to improve slip resistance.
Topcoat: Applies a clear topcoat for added protection.

Notable Details

To avoid disrupting the busy service area, multiple crews worked during off-hours, ensuring the project was completed efficiently without disrupting daily operations.

The addition of a non-slip aggregate to the epoxy mix significantly improved floor safety by reducing the risk of slips and falls in an area prone to fluid spills.

The clear topcoat served as an additional layer of protection, enhancing the floor’s durability and extending its lifespan, ultimately providing a cost-effective solution for the dealership.

Client Satisfaction
