Garages · Strata Spaces · Businesses
A lasting floor starts with a properly assessed slab.
Priority One Epoxy Flooring installs epoxy, full-flake and resin flooring for New Westminster garages, basements, strata spaces and businesses. We assess your concrete, prepare the surface mechanically and match repairs, coating layers and texture to moisture conditions, traffic and your schedule.
Experience and project totals refer to our company-wide portfolio.
Flooring for your type of space
Choose a floor around what happens in the room: parked vehicles, daily foot traffic, storage, spills or wet cleaning. We plan the preparation and coating build for the actual use.
Full-flake finishes for attached and detached garages, with a compatible topcoat selected for tire traffic, sunlight at the door, texture and cleaning. Old paint, oil contamination and damaged concrete are assessed before coating.
Explore garage floor coating optionsCleanable finishes for suitable concrete in storage, laundry and utility spaces. For an older or below-grade slab, moisture testing and the source of any dampness guide whether coating is appropriate and what preparation is required.
Resin flooring for selected utility rooms, storage areas and building service spaces. We coordinate access, noise, work phases and reopening with the property manager. Parkades requiring waterproofing need a dedicated traffic membrane specification.
Review parkade traffic coating systemsSolid-colour, flake or broadcast resin finishes for shops, studios, customer-facing interiors and service areas. Carts, vehicle use, chemical spills and cleaning requirements guide the thickness, surface texture and topcoat.
Compare commercial flooring optionsFor a warehouse, processing room or demanding equipment floor, send the loads, chemicals and cleaning temperatures with your enquiry. We review those requirements through our industrial resin flooring service .
Concrete first
A Queen's Park basement, Queensborough garage and Sapperton commercial unit can need different preparation. We assess the individual floor rather than choosing a system from the neighbourhood or building age alone.
Moisture readings, drainage, existing finishes and evidence of leakage guide the specification. An approved moisture treatment may be suitable within its limits; active water entry or pressure beneath a slab needs separate investigation.
We inspect cracks, spalls, weak surface concrete and the bond of old coatings. Unsound material is removed and repairs are planned before the new floor. Moving joints need a compatible detail rather than simply being buried under rigid epoxy.
Lane access, stairs, low clearances, thresholds and shared routes affect preparation and staging. For occupied strata buildings or commercial units, we agree on work hours, isolation and reopening before installation.
Tell us about heritage requirements, ongoing dampness or previous peeling when you enquire. These details help us plan a useful assessment and explain the repair or testing scope in the quote.
Select the complete floor
Epoxy and polyaspartic can perform different jobs within one floor. Decorative flake adds the finish pattern; the primer, build coat and compatible topcoat determine the complete specification.
| Coating system | Typical fit | Selection priorities |
|---|---|---|
| Full-flake with a compatible topcoat | Garages and selected shared or commercial spaces | Tire traffic, slab bond, sunlight, texture and cleaning |
| Solid-colour epoxy | Suitable basements, utility rooms, shops and commercial interiors | Moisture limits, wear, spills and the required system thickness |
| Quartz broadcast resin | Selected wet-use or service areas | Traction, cleanability, chemical exposure, drains and cove details |
| Urethane cement | Specified washdown, processing and demanding service spaces | Thermal exposure, chemicals, drainage and product-specific moisture limits |
| Traffic-bearing membrane | Parkades or decks requiring a waterproofing system | Movement, waterproofing details, drainage and vehicle traffic |
Extra texture can improve traction but also changes cleaning. We balance both for the expected water, oil or residue. A decorative epoxy finish is not automatically a parkade waterproofing membrane or a remedy for a leaking basement.
Planning your budget
Basements, strata spaces and commercial floors are priced for their own preparation and system requirements. Floor area alone cannot account for damaged concrete, old adhesives, drain detailing, cove base or work around occupied areas.
Send the New Westminster address, approximate floor area, photos of the slab and any cracks or peeling. Include how the room is used and your preferred installation dates.
Your itemized quote identifies surface preparation, repairs, coating layers and topcoat, access arrangements and return-to-use timing. Any testing, extra repair allowance or work excluded from the price is explained before booking.

These images illustrate two finish styles. Colour, sheen and surface texture are reviewed with the proposed coating build so appearance and performance suit your floor.
For your New Westminster project, we discuss finish samples alongside the slab assessment, expected wear and cleaning routine.
Assessment through handover
Review the slab, moisture concerns, current coatings and intended use. Confirm suitable finishes, access, preparation, repairs and pricing before booking.
Use diamond grinding or another suitable mechanical method to create the specified surface profile. Remove failing layers and address contamination, cracks and damaged concrete.
Install the selected primer, resin layers, broadcast material and compatible topcoat. Application and recoat timing follow the product's temperature, humidity and curing requirements.
Confirm when walking, parking, moving equipment and cleaning can resume. We provide care instructions and review phased access for occupied buildings where practical.
Questions before installation
Often, if the concrete and moisture conditions are suitable for the proposed system. Building age alone does not decide. We review the slab, existing finishes, moisture readings and any leakage before recommending a coating or additional investigation.
A resin finish does not replace drainage repairs or a waterproofing investigation. Some approved treatments manage moisture vapour within defined limits, but active leakage or water pressure beneath the slab must be assessed separately.
They can work together. Epoxy may form a primer or build coat, while a compatible polyaspartic topcoat can provide wear protection and UV stability. Moisture, installation conditions, tire traffic and the desired finish guide the full system.
We first assess the existing coating's bond and compatibility. Loose or failing material is removed, and damaged or contaminated concrete is addressed. A new top layer cannot restore a failed bond underneath.
A parkade that requires waterproofing needs a traffic-bearing membrane and appropriate joint, drain and transition details. Utility-room epoxy and decorative garage finishes serve different purposes. We review the building's requirements before specifying the floor.
Many smaller residential installations take around two to three days, depending on preparation and the selected system. Walking, vehicle traffic, heavy loads and wet cleaning may have different cure times. Your schedule is confirmed for the actual products and site conditions.
We review occupied-building access, work hours, equipment movement, isolation and reopening with the owner or property manager. Phased installation may be practical when the layout and curing requirements allow it.
Send your address, approximate square footage, floor photos and preferred timing. We will review preparation, repairs and finish options, then arrange a free site assessment.
