commercial kitchens & restaurants floors built for Westerville
Westerville's restaurant scene along State Street and the Uptown district runs grease, hot water, and constant cleaning across kitchen floors every service. Bare concrete in those kitchens stains with grease, gets slick, and fails health inspections. Old tile grout traps bacteria, and a floor without cove base leaves a floor-wall seam where water pools. The right system is urethane cement or a slip-resistant epoxy with an integral cove base: it handles hot-water washdowns, resists grease and cleaning chemicals, and gives grip where floors get wet. We connect Westerville restaurant owners and kitchen managers with a vetted local installer who schedules the work around your service hours.

Planning your install in Westerville
Westerville restaurant kitchens cannot close for long, so we work overnight and between services. We schedule around your service hours and lock in which kitchen sections can go down on which nights. Cove base and drainage get sorted during the walk-through. Winter installs are fine in a heated kitchen, but thermal shock is a risk when hot washdown hits a cold slab, so we verify the slab is warm enough. If your space is leased, landlord approval and any health-department requirements get sorted during the free walk-through.
