Serving Gilbert and nearby communities.

Forklift traffic, pallet jacks, and dropped loads chew through a standard epoxy coating fast. Gilbert Epoxy Elite builds warehouse floor systems thick enough to handle that traffic and the heat that radiates through a metal building roof during a Gilbert summer.

We look at your traffic patterns before we quote anything. A floor that only sees foot traffic needs a different build-up than one running pallet jacks eight hours a day, and we spec the coating thickness and topcoat accordingly.

DIY vs pro

DIY vs hiring a pro for Warehouse Floor Coatings

DIY	Hire a pro
Retail epoxy kits aren't rated for forklift or pallet jack weight	Coating thickness is specified to match your actual equipment load
Thin DIY coatings chip and peel under constant wheel traffic within months	Commercial-grade materials resist chipping from dropped pallets
No access to high-build commercial-grade materials	Proper grinding creates a bond that holds under constant abrasion
Line marking without proper paint fades fast under equipment traffic	Marking paint is rated for durability under daily forklift passes

FAQs

Warehouse Floor Coatings FAQs

How thick does a warehouse coating need to be for forklift traffic?

Forklift-rated systems typically run thicker than standard epoxy, built up in multiple layers for impact resistance.

Can you coat around existing racking and equipment?

We can work in sections or schedule around equipment relocation if needed.

How long before forklifts can run on the new floor?

Most systems cure enough for light traffic within 24-48 hours, full cure within a week.

Does the coating resist oil and fuel spills?

We use chemical-resistant base coats designed for oil, fuel, and common warehouse chemicals.

Can you add aisle markings during the same job?

Line marking is typically done as part of the topcoat stage.

What if our slab has existing cracks from settling?

We treat cracks and joints before coating so they don't telegraph through or cause early coating failure.

What's included

What's included with Warehouse Floor Coatings

Typically included: surface grinding, crack and joint treatment, high-build base coat, standard topcoat.

Optional: aisle and zone marking, metallic or decorative options, extra impact-resistant layers in high-traffic zones.

How it works

Our process

Step 1
Load & Traffic Assessment
Forklift and equipment traffic patterns are reviewed to plan coating thickness.
Step 2
Surface Grinding Prep
Heavy grinding removes old coatings and roughens the slab for bonding.
Step 3
Expansion Joint Treatment
Joints are filled or treated to handle movement under heavy loads.
Step 4
High-Build Base Coat
A thick base coat is applied to withstand constant equipment traffic.
Step 5
Aisle & Zone Marking
Floor markings are added to designate storage, aisles, and safety zones.
Step 6
Heavy-Duty Topcoat Cure
A durable topcoat is cured to handle sustained warehouse operations.
