Basement Floor Epoxy in Rochester, MN
Free on-site estimate and moisture test.
We coat basement floors in Rochester homes after we test the slab for moisture.
Basement epoxy: $1,200 to $20,000 installed for 300 to 2,000 sq ft.
Moisture test first. We test with ASTM F1869 or ASTM F2170 before any coating goes down.
No coating on a wet slab. Epoxy cannot bond to a wet or humid slab, so the test comes before the quote.
Easy to clean. A seamless sealed floor wipes clean and has no grout lines.

When Can You Use the Basement Again?
Polyaspartic takes foot traffic in 4 to 6 hours. Standard epoxy needs 24 to 72 hours. Most epoxies go on best above 50°F, and cure time doubles for every 18°F drop below 70°F.
Why Test a Rochester Basement First
Moisture sinks coatings. Solid epoxy should not go on floors with moisture problems.
Best conditions. Epoxy goes on best between 60°F and 85°F with humidity under 85 percent.
Long winters. Rochester sees roughly 149 days below freezing a year. Cool slabs cure slower.
