Without the right basement flooring, your basement can be known for being cold, damp, dark, and susceptible to flooding. Unfortunately, these conditions lead to mold, bacteria, health hazards, and potentially significant property damage that can be costly. A basement floor coating of epoxy or polyaspartic will make your basement water-resilient, brighter, and anti-bacterial, and make it a better living place that is easy to clean and improves wellness.
Epoxy and Polyaspartic Floors Outperform Other Floor Types
Other flooring types, such as vinyl tile, ceramic tile, and carpet, fall short compared to basement epoxy floors. Tile and carpet deteriorate with time, and house mold, mildew, and bacteria, which are difficult to clean. Our customers often request that we remove old tile and carpet from properties and install epoxy flooring because it is resilient, looks fantastic, and provides a seamless surface that water and bacteria cannot penetrate.
Custom Basement Flooring
We can customize your basement epoxy or polyaspartic flooring to suit your needs. Your basement floor installed by Young Flooring professionals will meet the highest health and safety requirements, stay easy to clean, and last decades. We help you select a custom floor according to the following:
- Abrasion- and impact-resistance
- Speed of installation
- Slip-resistance
- Style and color
- Fade resistance
- Light reflectivity
- Budget
There are three main types of epoxy flooring.
Metallic Epoxy
Metallic epoxy can increase the design opportunity of your basement area because it is handcrafted and specially customized to create finishes that mimic the appearance of clouds, waves, lava, and marble. A metallic epoxy coating is beautiful and not very common as it requires professional expertise. However, your guests will be impressed. Installation time depends on the space size, but generally, installation takes 3-5 days.
Flake Epoxy or Flake Polyaspartic Flooring
In flake epoxy and flake polyaspartic floors, colored vinyl chips are blended with epoxy, creating a random, cheery design. You can choose your flake colors to achieve the look you want. We can install polyaspartic flake flooring in one day, which our customers enjoy.
Flake flooring is also an ideal choice for pet owners as the texture can be customized and is incredibly hygienic. In addition, animal shelters and hospitals often request flake epoxy or flake polyaspartic flooring due to its durability and anti-bacterial and easy-to-clean benefits.
Solid Color Epoxy or Solid Color Polyaspartic Flooring
Young Flooring installs the highest quality floor coatings to give you superior performance and durability. Epoxy kits found in retail stores can’t compare with our professional-grade materials and installation (usually 1-2 days). The result is a cost-saving floor in the long run. You don’t have to worry about incorrect floor preparation or lower quality coatings as you do with DIY kits, which could cause the coating to chip, crack or peel and be redone. Our installations come with a 20 year warranty.
Cleaning Your Basement Flooring Will Become Easy
One of our floor systems’ top features is the simplistic and carefree maintenance they offer. Basement epoxy and polyaspartic is easier to maintain than traditional flooring. First, use a soft bristle broom or a dust mop to remove dirt and debris from the surface. After sweeping or dust mopping your floor, use a wet mop with a PH neutral cleaner. That’s it!
Use Gentle Cleaners on Your Epoxy Flooring
- Do not use dry, abrasive cleaners
- Never use acidic cleaners
- Wipe minor spills with paper towels or rags
- Use TSP to remove tough stains
