Planning for Water First

Epoxy flooring in Baytown has to start with water. Galveston Bay borders the city on the south and west and Cedar Bayou on the east, the elevation is about 23 feet, and annual rainfall averages around 64 inches. That is noticeably wetter than central Houston. A garage floor here deals with damp air, wet tires and ground that rarely dries out completely.

Storm history and the slab

Wikipedia lists Carla in 1961, Alicia in 1983, Ike in 2008 and Harvey in 2017 as the most damaging hurricanes to hit Baytown, and storm surge is a major concern. A coated floor will not stop surge or rising water, but it does not soak up silt and saltwater like bare concrete does. Cleanup becomes a matter of hosing and scrubbing rather than living with stains.

Subsidence left its mark

In the 1960s, heavy groundwater pumping caused severe subsidence in low-lying parts of Baytown, including the Brownwood subdivision. Ground that has moved can leave cracked or uneven slabs. We map cracks, grind high spots and fill what can be filled. If the slab has shifted so much that any coating would split right along with it, we will tell you.

Floors for plant workers and contractors

ExxonMobil's Baytown complex has run since 1919, Chevron Phillips operates its largest U.S. site at Cedar Bayou, and Covestro has its largest U.S. chemical processing site here. Many workers keep trucks, tools and gear at home, and contractors run small shops around town. A thick base under a topcoat that resists chemicals takes oil, solvents and steel-toe boots in stride.

Salt and humidity in the air

On breezy days, bay air carries moisture and some salt. Bare concrete near an open garage door can pick up that grime. A sealed, seamless floor wipes clean, and we use UV-stable topcoats where sun hits the floor.

Baytown Questions

Can a coating stop water from coming into my Baytown garage?

No. A coating seals the concrete surface but does not keep water out. It makes cleanup much easier and protects the slab from stains.

My slab is uneven. Can you still coat it?

Small dips and high spots can be ground and patched. Larger settlement may need repair first, and we will say so in the quote.

What finish suits a home shop for a plant worker?

A heavier epoxy base sealed with a chemical-resistant top layer, plus texture where you walk in work boots. Flake helps hide scuffs.

Is the rain a problem on install day?

Rain and high humidity can affect curing. Before we start, we compare the dew point with the slab temperature, and poor readings mean we reschedule for a better day.
