Floors in Iowa City
Old basements with old paint
Landlords, homeowners renovating older houses and institutional facility managers drive much of the coating work here.
Many older basements have layers of paint or sealer, and those films do not make a good base for epoxy. Grind down to sound concrete and repair cracks. Test moisture, because older foundations often lack a vapor barrier.
When to install: Coat between spring and fall when you can ventilate easily. Summer humidity is common, so watch the dew point and run dehumidifiers in basements.
Getting supplies: Iowa City orders ship from U.S. Resin Supply nationwide, with shipping added to the order. The closest of our 10 stores is U.S. Resin Supply – Montgomery in Montgomery, IL, about 186 driving miles away.
