Corridor & Hallway Epoxy Flooring

Corridor & Hallway Epoxy Flooring — Vancouver, BC & Canada

Built for Schools • Hospitals • Condos • Hotels • High-Traffic Buildings

Corridors and hallways are the busiest routes in any facility. In schools they carry students and staff all day. In hospitals they support wheelchairs, beds and medical carts. In condos and apartments they handle constant resident traffic, strollers and moving carts. In hotels they see luggage wheels, housekeeping trolleys, and high guest turnover. Standard flooring systems can wear unevenly, trap dirt in seams, and break down under aggressive cleaning.

Priority One Epoxy Flooring installs seamless corridor and hallway epoxy flooring systems designed for long-term performance, safety, and easy maintenance. We serve Metro Vancouver and surrounding areas including Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam, Delta, North Vancouver, West Vancouver as well as the Fraser Valley, Vancouver Island, and the BC Interior. Our resin flooring solutions are engineered to reduce downtime, improve cleanliness, and deliver a modern, professional finish for high-traffic spaces.

Why Corridors & Hallways Need Specialized Epoxy Flooring

Hallways take constant punishment—far more than many other rooms—because traffic is concentrated into a narrow path. Over time, common flooring materials can develop scuffs, delamination, chipped edges, trip hazards, and staining. In institutional and multi-residential settings, cleaning products and disinfection protocols can accelerate wear.

Corridor epoxy flooring is built to handle:

• Continuous foot traffic, including heavy peak-hour movement
• Rolling loads (wheelchairs, medical carts, housekeeping carts, strollers, dollies)
• Aggressive cleaners, disinfectants, and frequent wet mopping
• Impact and abrasion from equipment, furniture and luggage wheels
• Slip-risk zones near entrances, elevators and stairwells
• Concrete dusting, stains, and worn surfaces that look unprofessional

Properly specified and installed epoxy flooring provides a seamless, durable surface that is easy to clean and maintain, while improving safety and appearance throughout the building.

Corridor & Hallway Epoxy Flooring Applications

Hospital & Healthcare Corridors

Healthcare corridors demand flooring that supports infection control and daily cleaning routines. Seamless epoxy floors help reduce dirt traps and withstand disinfectants, while providing durable performance under wheelchairs, beds and carts. Slip-resistant finishes can be added to enhance safety in high-traffic clinical environments.

School & University Hallways

School hallways see constant wear from students, staff, backpacks and carts. Epoxy corridor flooring delivers long-lasting durability, reduced maintenance, and a clean, modern appearance for K–12 schools, colleges, and universities.

Condominium & Apartment Corridors

In multi-residential buildings, hallways must stay presentable while handling daily resident traffic, strollers, scooters, and move-ins. Epoxy flooring creates a seamless finish that minimizes dirt collection and helps reduce repair cycles compared to flooring systems with seams, grout lines or weak edges.

Hotel & Hospitality Hallways

Hotel corridors must balance aesthetics with durability. Luggage wheels, housekeeping carts and constant guest movement can quickly wear traditional surfaces. Epoxy hallway flooring offers an easy-to-clean solution that supports a consistent, professional look with minimal downtime for repairs.

Epoxy Flooring Systems for Hallways & Corridors

High-Build Epoxy Systems

High-build epoxy creates a thick, seamless surface designed to resist abrasion and impacts in high-traffic corridors. This is a common choice for schools, condos, hotels and commercial buildings that want long-term performance and easy upkeep.

Quartz Broadcast Epoxy (Slip-Resistant)

Quartz broadcast systems add texture and traction, making them ideal for entrances, elevator lobbies and areas where slip resistance is required. They also offer excellent wear resistance for busy institutional hallways.

Polyaspartic or Polyurethane Topcoats

Topcoats improve scratch resistance, chemical resistance and long-term appearance. In sunlit corridors or atrium-adjacent hallways, a UV-stable topcoat helps reduce yellowing and maintains a consistent finish.

Moisture Mitigation (When Needed)

If concrete moisture vapor emission is high, a moisture mitigation layer may be required to prevent blistering and delamination. We assess slab conditions and recommend the correct build-up for long-term performance.

Our Corridor & Hallway Epoxy Flooring Installation Process

Priority One Epoxy Flooring follows a structured installation process to ensure strong adhesion, consistent appearance and long service life—especially in high-traffic corridor environments.

1. Site Assessment: Review traffic patterns, building type, safety needs, and current slab condition.
2. Surface Preparation: Diamond grinding or shot blasting to create the proper concrete profile.
3. Repairs: Crack repair, spall repair, joint prep, and leveling for a smooth, stable substrate.
4. Priming: Apply primer suited to slab conditions and system design.
5. System Build: Install epoxy layers and (if specified) quartz broadcast for traction and durability.
6. Topcoat: Apply protective topcoat for wear, chemical resistance and long-term finish stability.
7. Final Walkthrough: Confirm finish, transitions, edges, and provide maintenance guidelines.

For occupied buildings, we can often phase installations by section to reduce disruption and keep traffic moving.

Case Study — High-Traffic Corridor Upgrade in Metro Vancouver

A busy multi-use building needed a corridor flooring solution that could handle daily foot traffic, carts, and constant cleaning. The existing surface showed heavy wear and was difficult to maintain, creating a poor first impression in common areas.

Priority One Epoxy Flooring prepared the slab, repaired damage, and installed a durable epoxy system designed for high traffic with a protective topcoat. The result was a seamless corridor finish that cleaned easily and maintained a consistent, professional appearance.

• Improved cleaning efficiency and reduced maintenance time
• More consistent appearance across the corridor path
• Better durability under rolling carts and daily foot traffic

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does corridor epoxy flooring last?

With proper surface preparation and routine maintenance, corridor and hallway epoxy flooring can last 10–20 years depending on traffic levels, system thickness, and cleaning protocols.

Is epoxy flooring safe for hospitals, schools, condos and hotels?

Yes. Epoxy systems can be tailored with slip-resistant textures and protective topcoats. Because the surface is seamless, it’s also easier to clean and maintain compared to flooring with joints or grout lines.

Can you add slip resistance in corridors and near entrances?

Absolutely. We can adjust the surface texture and add quartz broadcast finishes where extra traction is needed, such as entrances, elevator lobbies, and transition zones.

How long does installation take for a hallway or corridor?

Many corridor projects can be completed in 2–4 days depending on repair needs, system selection, and building access. In occupied buildings, phased scheduling can reduce disruption.

Is epoxy flooring suitable for hospital and school corridors?

Yes. Epoxy flooring is widely used in hospitals and schools because it is seamless, durable, easy to clean, and compatible with slip-resistant finishes. Systems can be tailored to meet safety, hygiene, and traffic requirements.

Can corridor epoxy flooring be customized for condos and hotels?

Absolutely. Corridor epoxy flooring can be customized with different textures and finish levels to match the design and performance needs of condominiums and hotels while maintaining long-term durability.
