Comprehensive Old Epoxy Floor Removal Services
We eliminate every trace of failed epoxy systems through complete removal processes. Our services include full system elimination, substrate restoration, contamination cleanup, and surface preparation. From residential garages to industrial facilities, we handle all removal applications with specialised equipment and proven techniques.
Complete Removal Benefits
Why total system elimination is often required:
- Adhesion Assurance: Eliminating all contamination to prevent new coating failure
- Warranty Compliance: Meeting manufacturer requirements for warranty coverage
- Long-term Performance: Maximum service life from new installations
- Contamination Elimination: Removing all traces of oils, chemicals, and degradation
- Uniform Substrate: Creating a consistent surface for uniform coating application
- Quality Guarantee: Professional results backed by performance warranties
When Partial Removal is Appropriate
Limited situations where selective removal works:
- Spot Repairs: Small area damage not affecting overall system integrity
- Surface Refreshing: Removing only failed topcoat layers
- Emergency Repairs: Temporary fixes until complete removal is possible
- Budget Constraints: Phased removal over multiple budget cycles
- Time Limitations: Partial removal, maintaining operations until scheduled shutdown
- Testing Areas: Sample removal for assessment and planning

Frequently Asked Questions
Ookk for bubbling, peeling, cracking, or areas where the coating has separated from the concrete. If new coatings keep failing or you see contamination underneath, complete removal is your only lasting solution.
No. Overlaying failed epoxy almost always leads to new coating failure. Contamination, poor adhesion, and trapped moisture will transfer to your new system, causing premature failure and wasted money.
Professional removal with proper equipment isn’t. We use HEPA dust collection systems, containment barriers, and full safety protocols. DIY removal without proper equipment creates dangerous silica dust and chemical exposure.
Mechanical removal uses grinding, shot blasting, or scarifying equipment. Chemical removal uses solvents or caustic strippers. We select methods based on coating type, contamination levels, and substrate condition.
