Seamless Floors That Pass Inspection
The FDA Food Code calls for floors in food areas to be smooth, durable, nonabsorbent and easily cleanable, with coved floor-wall junctions where floors are water-flushed, and Florida restaurants are inspected by DBPR. A seamless restaurant epoxy floor with integral cove base meets that directly: no grout lines, no seams, nothing to trap grease.
Epoxy is a strong, cost-effective choice in dining rooms, bars, restrooms, dry storage and hallways. On hot cook lines and dish areas, where floors take boiling water, steam cleaning and hot oil every day, urethane cement handles that thermal shock far better, and we'll tell you so up front. Many restaurants use both.

Epoxy vs. Urethane Cement in Restaurants
Which system belongs where

| Seamless, cleanable | Yes | Yes |
| Integral cove base | Yes | Yes |
| Decorative options | Wide range | Mostly utilitarian |
| Best zones | Dining, bars, restrooms, storage | Cook lines, dish rooms, washdown |
Slip resistance in wet, greasy areas
OSHA 1910.22 requires walking-working surfaces to be kept clean and, as far as possible, dry. We use heavier texture in wet zones like dish areas and ice machines and lighter texture in dining rooms, balancing grip against how easily the floor cleans.
Scheduling around service
We phase by area (dining room one weekend, back of house another), work closed days, and give clear return-to-service times for foot traffic, carts and full cleaning chemicals.
Florida slabs
Most restaurants here are slab-on-grade, often in older strip centers. We test for moisture and add a moisture-mitigating primer when readings call for it, and detail floor drains so the floor slopes and the cove ties in cleanly.

Good To Know
Restaurant Epoxy Flooring FAQs
Is epoxy flooring good for commercial kitchens? +
It depends on the zone. Epoxy works well in dry storage, bars, restrooms and dining rooms, but cook lines and dish areas that see hot water, steam and hot oil are usually better served by urethane cement.
What flooring does the health department require? +
The FDA Food Code calls for smooth, durable, nonabsorbent, easily cleanable floors in food areas, with coved floor-wall junctions where floors are water-flushed.
Does a restaurant floor need a cove base? +
Where floors are cleaned by water flushing, the Food Code calls for a coved junction. Resin floors can include an integral cove base.
Can you install without closing the restaurant? +
Often we phase by area and work closed days or overnight so you lose as little service as possible.
