Commercial Kitchen Floors in Houston, TX

Kitchen Floors · Houston, TX

Built for hot water, grease and daily washdown

Commercial kitchen floors take more abuse than almost any floor in a building. Hot water, grease, dropped pans and cart traffic all hit the same slab. Tile grout soaks that up and starts to fail. We install poured quartz and textured coating systems for Houston kitchens, prep rooms, bars and food plants.

The floor runs as one surface from the drains up to the wall. A coved edge closes the joint where the wall meets the slab. Grease and wash water head for the drain instead of a seam. We have coated food service floors here since 2008, next to our commercial epoxy flooring work.

What We Handle

  • Quartz broadcast systems for grip and wear in wet kitchen areas
  • Urethane systems built for hot water washdown, steam cleaning and thermal shock
  • Integral cove base formed where the floor meets the wall
  • Coating carried into floor drains and trench drains and sealed at the edge
  • Resistance to grease, animal fats, food acids and kitchen cleaning chemicals
  • Texture levels matched to each area, from the hot line to the dish pit
  • Diamond grinding, crack and joint repair and a moisture test before the first coat
  • An install plan with the return to service set before the crew starts

Quartz and urethane commercial kitchen flooring systems

Two builds cover most kitchens. A quartz broadcast system sets colored quartz sand into an epoxy base. A clear topcoat locks the grain in. That grain gives the floor grip under carts and wet shoes.

A urethane system is the heavier answer. It goes down as a mortar that grips the slab rather than a film on top. It moves with the concrete when hot water hits it. It holds through a fryer spill or a steam wash.

We pick the texture level area by area. The dish pit and the hot line get a heavier grain. Cart aisles get a finer one, so the floor still mops clean. The same idea drives our anti slip floor coatings in walkways, ramps and loading areas.

How long is a restaurant kitchen floor out of service?

Prep comes first. We diamond grind the slab, open and fill cracks and control joints, and run a moisture test. Old sealer or a failed coating comes off in the same step.

Coats go down after that. Each one needs cure time before the next, so a quartz build runs multiple days. Where the window is tighter, a fast cure system shortens it. That is the chemistry behind our polyaspartic floor coatings.

Kitchens rarely close all at once. We can phase a room and coat one side while the other keeps working. Dates and the return to service are set at the estimate, so you can plan around them.

Kitchen and food plant floors across Greater Houston

We work out of the Memorial area of west Houston. From there we cover Greater Houston, out to Katy and Sugar Land and up to The Woodlands. Restaurants, bars, bakeries, catering rooms, school kitchens and food plants all sit inside that area.

Texas food establishment rules ask for floors that are smooth, durable and easy to clean. They also ask for the floor and wall joint to be coved and sealed. A seamless floor with a coved edge answers that description. Your local health department still makes the call on what it approves.

Moisture is the other Houston problem. Most kitchens here sit on slab-on-grade over Gulf Coast clay. Vapor moves up through the concrete, and coating a wet slab is the top reason floors peel here. We test the slab first and prime with a vapor barrier when the reading calls for it.

How We Work

How a Job With Epoxy One Runs

From the first call or text to the walk-through on the finished floor, here is how it goes.

1

Call or text

Reach us at (281) 831-5656 and tell us about the floor. We book estimates on weekdays.

2

Free on-site estimate

We measure the slab, look at its condition and run a moisture test. Then you get a quote for the system we recommend.

3

Color and finish

Pick the color and finish from samples. Options include full flake, solid color, quartz and metallic.

4

Prep and coats

We diamond grind the slab and repair cracks and joints. A vapor barrier primer goes down when the moisture test calls for it. Then comes the base coat, the flake or pigment broadcast, and the clear topcoat.

5

Cure and walk-through

Most garages are a two-day job, and a metallic floor takes about three days. We do a final walk-through and tell you when to drive on the floor.

FAQ

Kitchen Floors Questions, Answered

Common questions about kitchen floors across Greater Houston, from Conroe to Alvin. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (281) 831-5656

Is an epoxy floor a good choice for a commercial kitchen?
Yes, when it is built for the job. A thin epoxy coat alone will struggle with hot water and grease. What holds up is a quartz broadcast build or a urethane system. Both are coved at the walls and sealed at the drains, so you clean one surface instead of grout lines.
What does a commercial kitchen floor cost?
Price comes down to the square footage and the shape the slab is in. It also depends on how many drains and wall runs need coving, and which system fits the room. A dish pit takes more texture and material than a dry storage room. We look at the floor, test it for moisture and put the figure in writing on a free on-site estimate.
Will the floor be slippery when it is wet?
Texture is what settles that. Quartz broadcast and textured topcoats put grain into the surface, so shoes hold on a wet floor. Heavy texture belongs near a fryer, while a finer grain mops better in a cart aisle. OSHA's walking-working surfaces rule is the general standard for keeping working floors safe.
Can you coat over the tile in my kitchen?
The tile has to come out first, because a coating needs concrete under it. That removal happens before our crew arrives, so our work starts at the bare slab. We grind down to sound concrete, fill what is left of the mortar bed and repair cracks.
How do we clean and maintain the floor?
Sweep or dust mop the grit off, then wash with a neutral cleaner and a deck brush. Rinse and squeegee to the drain so no cleaner dries on the surface. Strong acids and heavy bleach mixes dull a topcoat over time, so keep those off it. The work is backed by a written warranty; ask us for the terms.
Do you coat kitchens outside the city of Houston?
Yes, we work across Greater Houston from our west Houston base. That includes Katy, Cypress, Sugar Land, Pearland, Missouri City and The Woodlands. Kitchens sit in the same service area as the rest of our epoxy flooring in Houston work. Call or text (281) 831-5656 and we will come look at the floor.

These guys did my garage floor back in November, Pablo really knows the technical knowledge and recommend a vapor barrier to be put down first. 3 months in and it still looks brand new. Went with Folsom color choice. Super easy to work with and plan around the drywall crew. Highly recommended!

I work for a custom home builder in the Houston area and we have been using Xpedite Coating for many years on our garage epoxy floors. They are very professional and timely and always leave the site clean after they are finished. I would highly recommend them for your next epoxy flooring need.

I used Xpedite Coatings twice to finish my epoxy flake garage floor at 2 properties. This guy is professional at what they do. The crew came and finished the job in a timely manner. The results look great and price is competitive. Highly recommended.
