Aircraft Hangar Epoxy Flooring

Aircraft Hangar Epoxy Flooring — Vancouver & British Columbia

Seamless • Heavy-Duty • Chemical & Jet Fuel-Resistant Flooring Systems

Priority One Epoxy Flooring engineers epoxy and urethane-cement systems specifically for aviation facilities across Vancouver and BC. Our floors resist jet fuel, Skydrol®/hydraulic fluids, de-icers, lubricants, and constant wheeled traffic—delivering a seamless, non-slip surface that supports safety, efficiency, and long-term durability.

Why Aircraft Hangars Need Purpose-Built Flooring

Hangars face corrosive exposure (jet fuel, hydraulic fluids, de-icers), heavy aircraft point loads, forklift abrasion, and frequent washdowns. Standard concrete or tile can spall, crack, and absorb contaminants—raising safety risks and maintenance costs.

Our solution: seamless, chemically resistant builds with tuned traction, integrated coves, trench drains, and transitions to protect walls, improve cleanability, and support aviation compliance across BC.

Application Areas — Where Our Flooring Matters Most

Maintenance & Aircraft Storage Bays

High-duty epoxy or urethane-cement layers resist chemical attack, support wheel loads, and maintain a smooth, non-slip surface for efficient work.

Fuel & Service Stations

Chemical-resistant topcoats handle hydrocarbon spills and thermal cycling. Textured zones improve footing around refuelling equipment.

Workshops & Hangar Corridors

High-build epoxy or urethane mortar improves abrasion resistance and cleanability for tools, carts, and frequent traffic.

Offices & Observation Areas

Decorative quartz/flake or polished resin finishes provide a premium look while remaining tough and low-maintenance.

Flooring Systems We Install — Engineered for Aviation

Urethane Mortar (Polyurethane-Cement)

Thermal-shock tolerant, high bond strength, non-dusting. Ideal for maintenance bays, fuel handling areas, and wet-wash zones.

High-Build Epoxy & Quartz Broadcast

Abrasion and chemical resistance with adjustable slip-resistance. UV-stable polyurethane topcoats keep surfaces clean and bright.

Fast-Cure Polyaspartic

Return-to-service in ~24–48 hours—great for phased work and minimal disruption.

Waterproof Membranes & Seamless Cove Bases

Protects moisture-sensitive slabs and areas over occupied spaces. Coves and drains reduce chemical buildup and speed cleaning.

Aircraft Hangar Examples — Flooring in Action

Our Installation Process — Precise, Documented, Reliable

Every project begins with a site assessment (moisture testing, joint inspection, pull-off adhesion) to address root causes before application.

1. Site Consultation & Testing: Concrete strength, moisture, pH, and adhesion pull tests.
2. Substrate Repair: Crack injection, spall repair, and joint replacement (flexible urethane).
3. Surface Preparation: Shot blasting or diamond grinding to the correct CSP profile.
4. Primer & Base: Moisture-tolerant primers and scratch coats for uniform adhesion.
5. System Build-Up: Broadcast aggregates, urethane-cement or epoxy builds, coves, and drains.
6. Topcoats: UV-stable polyurethane or antimicrobial options with tuned traction.
7. QA & Handover: Adhesion verification, coverage logs, care guide, and written warranties.

Phased installations are available to keep hangar operations moving; we coordinate closely with facility managers.

Case Study — Vancouver Private Aircraft Hangar

A Vancouver hangar with fuel etching and concrete spalling in maintenance bays was remediated with crack/spall repairs and a urethane-cement system plus seamless coves and drains. The new floor resists chemical attack, supports aircraft traffic, and reduced cleaning time — improving safety and efficiency for the facility team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which flooring is best for hangar maintenance areas?

Urethane-cement (urethane mortar) or high-build epoxy broadcast systems — both offer chemical resistance, thermal-shock tolerance, and abrasion protection.

How long does installation take?

Fast-cure polyaspartic can handle foot traffic in ~24–48 hours. Full urethane-cement builds often need several days; we can phase work to maintain operations.

Can you install over existing concrete or coatings?

Yes. Proper assessment, remediation, and surface profiling (shot blast/grind) are essential for long-term adhesion.

Are epoxy floors safe and non-slip?

Yes. We tune texture/aggregate to meet wet-area slip resistance while keeping surfaces cleanable.

Do you provide warranties and documentation?

Yes — written warranties, QA logs, adhesion reports, and maintenance guidelines are provided with every project.
