Cape Breton Epoxy Flooring installs epoxy flooring, garage floor coating, polyaspartic coatings and concrete coatings across Cape Breton Island. We are based here and we work here.
The crew is small on purpose. The person who quotes your floor is on site while it is being ground and coated. Nothing gets handed to a subcontractor from the mainland.
We do residential and commercial work, from a single bay garage in Sydney Mines to a warehouse floor with aisle marking off Grand Lake Road.
There is no shortage of coated floors on this island that failed inside two years. Most of them failed for the same two reasons: nobody ground the slab, and nobody checked it for moisture.
Both of those are shortcuts that save a few hours and cost the customer the whole floor. We built the business around not taking them.
It also means turning down the occasional job. If a slab has water coming through it, or has broken up and settled, a coating is not the answer, and we say so.
Every quote starts with a site visit. We measure, read the moisture in the slab, check how hard the concrete is, and look at how the room gets used.
Then you get a written, itemised, fixed price. Preparation, materials and labour are listed. If something turns up once the grinder is running, we stop and talk to you before carrying on.
Diamond grinding on every floor. No acid etching. Primer matched to the moisture reading rather than whatever is in the van.
We use commercial grade resins from established manufacturers, not consumer product. The systems we install are the same ones specified for warehouse and food processing floors.
Coats go down at the thickness the manufacturer specifies, with the recoat windows respected. Rushing a top coat onto a base that has not set is how a floor delaminates in year three.
The workmanship is warranted in writing. You get the paperwork, the product data sheets and the maintenance instructions when we finish.
Our regular area covers Sydney, Sydney River, Glace Bay, North Sydney, Sydney Mines, New Waterford, Dominion and Louisbourg, including Whitney Pier, Membertou, Coxheath, Howie Centre and Mira Road.
Beyond that we take work out along Highway 105 toward Baddeck, down Highway 4 along the Bras d'Or, and across to Port Hawkesbury where the job justifies the travel.
If you are not sure we cover your road, call and ask. We would rather tell you on the phone than have you waiting on a quote that is not coming.
We do not use pressure and we do not use expiring discounts. If a solid colour epoxy is the right call for your storage room, we will quote that instead of talking you into a flake system.
We answer the phone during working hours and we call back when we say we will. If a job is going to run late because of weather, or a slab that needed more repair than expected, you hear it from us first.
Most of our work comes from people who saw a floor we did for someone they know. That only keeps happening if the floors hold up.
Call +1 782-201-4554 or send the form and we will arrange a time to look at the floor. Estimates are free and written.
Residential and commercial concrete coating systems, installed by our own crew.
Flake epoxy flooring is the system most garages and basements on this island end up with. An epoxy base coat goes down, vinyl chips are broadcast into it while it is wet, and a clear top coat seals the lot.

A garage floor coating seals the slab so salt, brine and water stop soaking into it. On Cape Breton that is the difference between concrete that lasts and concrete that flakes apart near the door.

Polyaspartic floor coating is a fast-curing resin that goes down in colder temperatures than epoxy and does not yellow in sunlight. On an island with a long cold season and a short good-weather window, that matters.

Commercial epoxy flooring has to survive forklifts, wash-downs, dropped stock and inspection. It also has to go in without shutting a business down for a week.

A coated basement floor turns a cold, dusty slab into a room you use. It seals the concrete, it stops the dust, and it does not trap moisture the way carpet and underlay do.
View Basement Floor Coating
Concrete floor coating covers everything a bare slab can be turned into: garage, basement, porch, patio, workshop, mechanical room or shop floor. Same principle every time, different system depending on what the floor meets.
View Concrete Floor CoatingTell us the room, the rough size and how it gets used, and we will come and price it. Prefer to talk it through? Call +1 782-201-4554.
