If your coating is peeling, hot-tire lifting, or flaking to bare concrete, epoxy removal is the fastest way to get back to a reliable floor. Elite Epoxy Port St. Lucie removes failed coatings and recoats with industrial-grade systems built for garages, warehouses, and retail floors in Port St. Lucie.
Removal starts with a hard look at why the coating failed and what is underneath it. We test for moisture vapor transmission when needed, check slab hardness, and identify the existing coating type (epoxy, urethane, acrylic, paint, or sealers). Most jobs require mechanical removal with a diamond grinder or shot blaster, paired with HEPA dust collection to keep the site clean. After we reach sound concrete, we repair spalls and cracks with fast-cure epoxy mortar, then profile the slab to the right CSP (typically CSP 2-4 for thin-mil coatings and CSP 4-6 for thicker broadcast systems).
Florida humidity and moisture pressure can break adhesion if the slab is not prepped and sealed correctly, so we match the recoating system to real site conditions. Where moisture is elevated, we install a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer before the build coat. For traction and wear, we can broadcast vinyl color flakes, quartz, or aluminum oxide into the basecoat, then lock it in with a clear polyaspartic or polyurethane topcoat for UV stability and chemical resistance. You can choose smooth, orange-peel, or broom-finish texture depending on foot traffic, carts, and slip resistance needs.
Port St. Lucie customers hire us because we do epoxy removal the right way, not a quick scuff-and-recoat that fails again. Our crews use purpose-built equipment, document surface profile, and won’t coat over soft concrete, contaminated slabs, or loose edges. We provide a clear written scope with coating thickness targets, cure windows, and options for anti-slip media, stem-wall coating, and cove base. You get straightforward scheduling, clean work habits, and systems that perform in garages, commercial bays, and back-of-house areas.
Before we leave, we walk the floor with you and confirm coverage, gloss, texture, and edge details at doorways, control joints, and drain areas. We review cure times for foot traffic and vehicles, plus cleaning guidance using pH-neutral detergents to protect the topcoat. Every job includes proper masking, crack and spall repair where specified, and a recoating system selected for your use case, from light-duty storage to heavy rolling loads. The result is a bonded, even finish that looks better and is easier to maintain than the failed coating we removed.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after an on-site look at the concrete condition, prep needs, and the coating system you want.
Yes. We are licensed and insured for epoxy flooring and concrete coating work, and we can provide documentation upon request.
Common systems include epoxy primer and 100% solids epoxy basecoats, full flake broadcasts, metallic epoxy, and UV-stable polyaspartic or aliphatic polyurethane topcoats. We also install traction additives and cove base options when needed.
Yes. We route and fill cracks, repair spalls and pitting with patch materials, and rebuild damaged areas as part of the prep so the coating lays flat and bonds correctly.
Hot-tire pickup is usually caused by improper prep, weak materials, or under-cured coatings. A properly ground slab, quality epoxy base, and a durable topcoat greatly reduce the risk.
When an old coating starts peeling, chipping, or lifting under hot tires, the fix is rarely another coat on top. Proper epoxy removal strips failed material back to sound concrete, restores the correct surface profile, and lets the new system bond the way it was designed to. Elite Epoxy Port St. Lucie handles full removal and professional recoating for garages, shops, warehouses, and commercial interiors, with materials selected for durability, UV exposure, and the moisture conditions common in Florida slabs.
Our process starts by identifying what is on the slab and why it failed. Coatings can delaminate from moisture vapor, oil contamination, weak surface paste, or an incorrect prep profile. We remove the coating mechanically, then grind to a consistent Concrete Surface Profile (CSP) appropriate for the new system. If the slab needs patching, we rebuild damaged areas with epoxy mortar and feather edges so the finished floor looks uniform.
Recoating is not one-size-fits-all. For many garages and light commercial floors, we install an epoxy primer and basecoat, then broadcast vinyl flakes or quartz for texture and wear, followed by a clear polyaspartic or polyurethane topcoat. For heavier traffic, we can build a thicker broadcast system and add aluminum oxide grit for long-term slip resistance. Color, gloss, and texture are chosen around how you use the space, whether it is foot traffic, rolling toolboxes, pallet jacks, or vehicle storage.
