Fixing Failing, Peeling & Worn Epoxy Floors in Toronto
Diagnose and repair failing, peeling, or worn epoxy — re-prep, recoat, and anti-slip upgrades, including bad solvent-based installs.
What is Epoxy Floor Repair & Recoat?
When an epoxy floor fails, it usually fails one of three ways: peeling at the edges, bubbling and lifting, or wearing through in high-traffic zones. The root cause is almost always one of three things — bad prep (acid-etched instead of diamond-ground), moisture vapour drive from below, or a budget solvent-based product that was the wrong call from the start.
We diagnose which one is happening, mechanically remove the failed coating, repair the substrate, and recoat with 100% solid commercial-grade epoxy. Done properly, the recoated floor carries the same lifetime warranty as a fresh install from Toronto’s full-spectrum epoxy flooring contractor. Where the slab itself is damaged, the recoat starts with proper concrete repair and restoration before any new coating goes down.
We also offer anti-slip upgrades for floors that are otherwise sound but slippery — grit broadcast under a new traffic-resistant topcoat for commercial kitchens, medical facilities, and pool decks.

Epoxy Repair FAQs
Why is my epoxy floor peeling?
Usually one of three reasons: the prep was acid-etched instead of diamond-ground, moisture is pushing up through the slab (no vapour barrier), or the original product was a solvent-based budget epoxy. We diagnose which one is happening before we quote a fix.
Can you re-grind off a failed epoxy floor?
Yes. Mechanical removal with diamond grinders takes the old failed coating off and leaves a sound substrate for the new system. We don't paint over a problem.
Do you recoat with the same products?
No. We recoat with 100% solid commercial-grade epoxy — never the solvent-based budget products that are the most common cause of failure.
What's the warranty on a recoat?
Same lifetime warranty as a fresh install, because we control the prep and the materials end-to-end.
Can you just add anti-slip to an existing floor?
Yes. If your existing coating is sound, we can add a grit broadcast under a new traffic-resistant topcoat — common for medical, commercial kitchen, and pool deck environments.
