Epoxy Flooring in South Park Township, PA

Epoxy flooring in South Park Township serves homes that share space with one of the county's biggest parks. South Park, a 1,999-acre recreational area run by Allegheny County, takes up roughly a third of the township. The rest is hilly ground shaped by streams on the Allegheny Plateau.

Heavy rain on hilly ground

Peters Creek is the township's main stream, and Lick Run runs along Bruceton. When Hurricane Ivan's remnants arrived in September 2004, the township got nearly 6 inches of rain in 12 hours. Rain like that sends water down slopes toward foundations, and basements in low spots feel it first.

What we check

Before we suggest a coating, we look at where water gathers near your garage door and take moisture readings on the slab. If the slab reads damp, the primer we use is one made for moisture. A garage that floods in storms might benefit from a trench drain before coating. We spell this out in writing.

Outdoor gear and muddy boots

With so much parkland next door, garages here store bikes, hiking boots, sleds and lawn equipment. A chip floor hides dirt, and a slip-resistant topcoat helps on wet days. For a workshop corner, we can add a tougher topcoat where tools get dropped.

Old mining community

Snowden, now part of South Park, was once a small mining community. In 2000 the township had 5,616 housing units, many of them decades old. Older floors usually need grinding and repair before coating.

A historic homestead nearby

The Oliver Miller Homestead, where a log house went up in 1772 and the first shots of the Whiskey Rebellion were fired in 1794, is a reminder of how long people have farmed this ground. Some properties still have outbuildings, sheds or barns with old concrete pads. Those slabs can be coated too, after grinding, patching and a moisture check.
