Commercial Restaurant Flooring Systems for Busy Hospitality Spaces

Slip-Resistant • Food-Safe • Seamless Flooring for Kitchens, Bars & Guest Areas

Restaurants, cafés, bars, hotels, and food courts rely on floors that stay safe, sanitary, and presentable under constant traffic. Standard concrete, tile grout, and low-grade coatings often fail under grease, hot water, aggressive cleaners, dropped items, rolling carts, and daily washdowns. Over time, surfaces can stain, become slippery, crack, and turn into a maintenance headache.

Priority One Epoxy Flooring installs engineered resinous flooring systems designed for restaurant and hospitality environments across Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, Vancouver Island, and the BC Interior. Our epoxy, urethane, and polyaspartic systems create a seamless, easy-to-clean surface with traction options matched to each zone—front-of-house and back-of-house.

Minimize downtime: fast-cure options available for overnight or phased installs.

Choose the Right Floor by Area

Hospitality venues need different performance in different areas. We design flooring systems by zone—so kitchens get traction and chemical resistance, while guest areas stay refined and easy to maintain.

Kitchens & Dish Areas

High-traction, chemical-resistant systems built for washdowns, grease, heat, and heavy use.

Bars & Server Stations

Stain resistance and slip control where spills are frequent and cleaning is constant.

Dining Rooms & Lobbies

Decorative options that look premium while staying durable under high foot traffic.

Corridors & Back-of-House Routes

Scuff-resistant finishes that handle carts, deliveries, and daily service movement.

Restrooms & Entry Zones

Moisture control + traction to reduce slips and simplify routine cleaning.

Why Restaurants & Hospitality Venues Need Specialized Resin Floors

Hospitality spaces must deliver a clean, inviting guest experience while staying safe and efficient behind the scenes. Floors are central to both. In kitchens and dish areas, surfaces need sanitation support and traction under wet, greasy conditions. In dining rooms, corridors, and lobbies, floors should be durable, attractive, and easy to maintain.

Common Problems We Solve

  • Grout lines that trap grime and bacteria (tile)
  • Delamination and edge lift from moisture (vinyl / sheet goods)
  • Dusting, staining, and surface breakdown (bare concrete)
  • Slip risks around bars, sinks, dish areas, and wet zones
  • Chipping and impact damage from carts, kegs, and dropped items
  • Finish dulling from aggressive cleaners and daily scrubbing

What a Proper Resin Floor Delivers

  • Seamless, non-porous surfaces that clean fast and don’t trap contaminants
  • Slip-resistant traction tailored to each area’s risk level
  • Chemical and stain resistance to withstand sanitizers, degreasers, and food acids
  • Durability under heavy traffic from staff movement, carts, and service routes
  • Optional cove base details for splash zones and inspection-ready transitions

Restaurant & Hospitality Flooring Systems We Install

High-Build Commercial Epoxy

A seamless, durable system with strong adhesion and excellent chemical resistance—ideal for service corridors, storage areas, and many front-of-house applications.

Quartz Broadcast Epoxy (High Traction)

A textured, slip-resistant surface engineered for wet and greasy zones like kitchens, dish pits, and entry areas—built for demanding washdowns.

Polyurethane / PU Topcoats

Adds abrasion resistance and flexibility to preserve finish quality under constant daily wear—often used where traffic is heavy and appearance matters.

Polyaspartic Coatings (Fast-Cure)

Fast return-to-service options for phased work or overnight installs—great for venues that can’t shut down for long.

Traction Control & Anti-Slip Additives

We tailor slip resistance by zone—more aggressive traction where water/grease are common, smoother micro-texture where comfort and rolling loads matter.

Moisture & Vapor Control Layers

Moisture issues cause failures. We test slabs and specify moisture-tolerant primers or mitigation layers when needed to prevent blistering and delamination.

Our Restaurant Epoxy Flooring Installation Process

Every venue has different traffic patterns, cleaning chemistry, and downtime constraints. We match the floor system to the space—then install it using proven steps.

  1. Consultation & Assessment: We review zones, drainage, slip risk, and scheduling requirements.
  2. Moisture Testing: We check slab conditions and recommend mitigation if required.
  3. Surface Preparation: Diamond grinding or shot blasting creates the right concrete profile for adhesion.
  4. Concrete Repairs: Cracks, spalls, and weak zones are repaired to stabilize the substrate.
  5. System Build-Up: Primer, body coats, and broadcast texture (if specified) installed to the correct thickness.
  6. Topcoat & Finish: Final protective layer for chemical resistance, wear protection, and traction control.
  7. Phased Turnover: We stage work so critical zones reopen quickly—often within 24–48 hours depending on system and conditions.
Result: floors that stay clean, safe, and durable—without surprises after a few months of heavy use.

Case Study: Downtown Vancouver Restaurant (Phased Install)

A busy restaurant needed a durable, sanitary floor upgrade in the kitchen and a refined finish in the dining area—without closing for a week. The kitchen also had moisture risk and slip concerns around wash zones.

We repaired the slab, installed a moisture-tolerant primer, applied a high-traction quartz broadcast system in the kitchen, and finished with a fast-cure polyaspartic topcoat. The dining area received a decorative system matched to the venue’s aesthetic. Work was staged to keep operations moving and the space returned to service on schedule.

Results Reported by the Team

  • Improved traction in wet zones and fewer slip concerns
  • Faster nightly cleaning with less grime build-up
  • A cleaner, more professional appearance for guests

Frequently Asked Questions

Is restaurant epoxy flooring safe for commercial kitchens?

Yes. When properly installed, resinous floors create a seamless, non-porous surface that supports sanitation and can be engineered with traction for wet and greasy zones.

Are epoxy floors slippery when wet?

They don’t have to be. We specify traction levels based on the area—kitchens and dish zones receive higher grip profiles than dining rooms or lobbies.

How long does restaurant epoxy flooring last?

With proper installation and routine maintenance, many commercial resin floors provide long service life. Heavy traffic, cleaning chemistry, and heat exposure influence longevity—re-topcoating at the right time can extend lifespan.

How fast can we reopen after installation?

Fast-cure polyaspartic options and phased scheduling can allow many areas to reopen within 24–48 hours, depending on temperature, humidity, system thickness, and site conditions.

Can you install over tile?

Often yes, if the tile is sound and properly prepared. In some cases, removal is recommended to address movement, moisture issues, or loose areas—we confirm after an on-site assessment.
