Matching the Resin System to Your Sector
The sector picks the system, because sanitation rules, chemicals, wheels and slip risk differ more between buildings than colors do. A dental suite in Diamond Bar and a pick and pack zone in Eastvale both get a resin floor, but one needs a coved seamless surface and the other a thick build for forklifts.
| Sector | What the floor has to survive | System we usually specify | Sector page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Warehouses and distribution | Solid forklift tires, joint spalls, concrete dust | High-build 100% solids epoxy, safety-yellow aisle striping | warehouse and distribution floors |
| Manufacturing and assembly | Hydraulic oil, dropped parts, process chemicals | High-build epoxy, aluminum oxide grit, safety striping | production floor coatings |
| Food and beverage plants | Hot washdowns, sanitizer, freezer cycling | Urethane cement slurry, integral cove, broadcast texture | urethane cement for food plants |
| Dealerships and repair shops | Hot tires, brake fluid, lifts and jacks | High-build epoxy, gray quartz broadcast, chemical-resistant topcoat | service bay and showroom floors |
| Restaurants and kitchens | Grease, hot water, a wet dish pit | Urethane cement slurry, integral cove, quartz texture | restaurant kitchen floors |
| Medical, dental and clinic suites | Disinfectants, rolling chairs, seams that hold grime | Seamless epoxy with integral cove base, light gray, antimicrobial-ready topcoat | clinic and dental floors |
| Retail showrooms and offices | Daily foot traffic, carts, a floor that sells | High-build epoxy, quartz broadcast, polyaspartic topcoat | Covered on this page |
Commercial Floor Specifications We Write Into Every Bid
- Surface prep
- Mechanical diamond grinding to a CSP 2 to CSP 3 profile on every floor, never acid etching
- Dry film thickness
- 15 to 35 mils on a multi-coat flake system, 40 to 120 mils on high-build and self-leveling floors
- Basecoat solids
- 80% to 100% solids by volume, so the coat does not shrink thin as it cures
- Topcoat
- UV-stable aliphatic polyaspartic clear coat that will not amber in the sun through an open garage door
- Moisture testing
- Every slab tested; above 3 lbs per 1,000 sq ft per 24 hours it gets a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer
- Hot-tire resistance
- Rated for tire contact heat from 140°F to 180°F
- Slip resistance
- 0.60 to 0.85 DCOF with aluminum oxide or polymer grit in the clear coat
- Hardness
- 75 to 85 Shore D, so a dropped wrench or a jack stand does not gouge it
- Compressive strength
- 8,000 to 12,000 PSI, well above the 3,000 to 4,000 PSI of the slab underneath
- VOC content
- 0 to 50 g/L, inside South Coast AQMD limits
- Walk-on time
- 4 to 8 hours on polyaspartic, 18 to 24 hours on 100% solids epoxy
- Park-on time
- 24 to 36 hours on polyaspartic, 72 to 96 hours on 100% solids epoxy
Surveying the Slab Before Any Number Means Anything
A slab survey and moisture test come first, on a Norco shop slab or a Villa Park office alike, because a price written before anyone reads the concrete is a guess. We map cracks, spalls and oil-soaked areas, then test moisture by ASTM F1869 calcium chloride or ASTM F2170 RH probes, as the product data sheet requires.
Any reading above 3 lbs per 1,000 sq ft over a typical 24 hours gets a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer in the bid, because vapor pushing up through the slab is what blisters a commercial floor in its first summer. Hot, dry summers hide that until the floor is sealed, so older buildings in North Tustin, El Sobrante and near Downtown get tested in more than one spot.

Investment and duration figures are estimates. Your written quote sets the final price and schedule.
Commercial floors in Riverside are typically budgeted per section, with an estimated $5,500 to $14,000 for each 1,000 to 2,000 sq ft section of a commercial or multi-car facility floor, and slab condition, system thickness and phasing move the number most. Each section typically takes an estimated 3 to 5 days on site, so phasing is a calendar question as much as a price one.
| Bid line | Est. investment | Est. time on site |
|---|---|---|
| Commercial or multi-car facility floor, per 1,000 to 2,000 sq ft section | Est. $5,500 to $14,000 | Est. 3 to 5 days |
| Two-section production or storage zone, about 3,400 sq ft | Est. $13,500 to $24,000 | Est. 3 to 5 days |
| Old coating removal by diamond grinding, inside the floor job | Est. $800 to $3,000 per 400 to 600 sq ft | Est. 4 to 8 hours |
Bids for Woodcrest shops and San Antonio Heights offices are built the same way, line by line: square footage by zone, the system and its mil thickness, joint and crack repair, moisture mitigation where the test calls for it, cove base, drains and striping, then the phasing plan with any night or weekend shifts.
These figures are budgetary estimates for Riverside and are subject to change. Your written quote, confirmed on bid from the plans, the specifications and the slab survey, sets the final price and the install schedule, and it depends on the moisture readings, the system specified and how many phases the building needs.

A retail showroom on worn carpet tiles over an old slab, open six days a week
Investment and duration figures are estimates. Your written quote sets the final price and schedule.
Angela's retail showroom in the Wood Streets now stands on a hard, slip-resistant floor that mops in minutes, and the store reopened on schedule. The space was a showroom and back office, about 1,600 sq ft, on worn carpet tiles over an old slab, open six days a week. We recommended a two-phase install over a weekend and a Monday, showroom side first, using high-build epoxy, quartz broadcast, polyaspartic topcoat. The job came in at an estimated $8,800 to $12,400 over an estimated 3 to 5 days, and customers never walked on a wet coat.
Submittals, Sample Areas and Approvals
Submittals go to the owner or GC before a grinder starts: product data sheets, the color and texture card, the mil schedule and the cure times written per section. On larger floors we coat a sample area on the real slab, so the facility manager approves texture and grip underfoot.
Phasing an Install Around a Working Building
Occupied buildings are coated in sections with the work set around the business, never the other way round. Rachel's dental suite, about 1,400 sq ft off Grand Avenue in Diamond Bar, was coated Friday to Monday so no patient days were lost. Sharon's upper parking deck section in the Mission Inn district closed one section at a time while tenants kept parking on the rest of the deck. Return-to-service times decide the plan: polyaspartic topcoats typically take foot traffic in 4 to 8 hours, while 100% solids epoxy typically needs 18 to 24 hours before staff walk it.
Grinders run on industrial vacuums, as silica rules push the trade, and nearby air intakes are sealed during the coat when the data sheet asks.
Why Facility Managers Choose Riverside Epoxy Flooring Group
Facility managers choose us because the crew that surveys the slab coats it, the schedule in the bid is the one we work to, and 1,187 finished projects sit behind that promise. Our owner still reads every moisture test before a system is chosen, and every floor carries our 2-year workmanship warranty against peeling, delamination and hot-tire pickup, with the coating maker's product warranty passed through in writing.
Commercial Service Areas Across the Inland Empire
We bid commercial floors across a 45-mile radius of Riverside, from Sycamore Canyon and Hunter Park businesses near the 215 to the logistics buildings on Eastvale's edge. Norco shops, Diamond Bar medical suites, Claremont restaurants near the Colleges and Yorba Linda retail all sit inside that radius, and Villa Park and North Tustin owners call us for commercial property too.

Association boards and asset managers start with HOA, condo and apartment garage coatings, owners of elevated structures read parking garage and deck traffic coatings, and distribution operators plan aisle striping on our warehouse floor coating page. Homeowners will find garages, patios and shops on the Riverside epoxy floors home page.
Commercial Floor Coating Questions From Facility Buyers
What is the smallest commercial floor you take on?
Our smallest commercial jobs are typically one section of about 1,000 sq ft, and the largest are multi-section floors like Hector's pick and pack zone, about 3,600 sq ft, in Eastvale.
Do you bid from plans and specifications?
Yes, we bid from plans and specifications, as on Victor's assembly floor in the industrial area near the Santa Ana River, then confirm every area with a slab survey.
How is a commercial floor coating priced?
Commercial floors are priced per section of 1,000 to 2,000 sq ft, as Oscar's washdown and prep room, about 1,500 sq ft, was in Eastvale, and your written bid sets the final price.
Can you work nights and weekends?
Yes, we coat after hours and over weekends, as on the Wood Streets showroom and the Diamond Bar dental suite, so the business keeps its open hours.
How long before we can use the floor again?
Most commercial floors typically take foot traffic in 4 to 8 hours with a polyaspartic topcoat, and the cure schedule for wheels is written per section in the submittals.
Who supervises the crew on site?
A lead installer runs every crew, our estimator stays the single contact through closeout, and the same team has coated floors for 12 years.
What do we receive at closeout?
You receive the product data sheets, the maintenance instructions, our 2-year workmanship warranty in writing and the coating maker's product warranty, typically 5 to 10 years on professionally installed systems.
Do you test for moisture before coating?
Yes, every slab is tested, as Elaine's restaurant kitchen and dish area, about 1,100 sq ft, in Claremont was before its urethane cement went down.
