A 1920s Neighborhood on the Southbank

Epoxy Flooring in San Marco starts with the neighborhood's origin. Developer Telfair Stockton broke ground in 1925 on 80 acres, and every one of the 250 lots sold within three hours, according to Wikipedia. Homes went up in a mix of styles through the late 1920s. Many still have their original detached garages, along with newer infill homes.

Original garages need careful prep

Ninety-year-old concrete is often thin and patched. We look for:

  • Crumbling surfaces that need repair mortar.
  • Old coatings that must be removed.
  • Uneven sections that need grinding.

We explain what is needed and tell you if a slab is not a good candidate for coating.

Flooding along the river

The St. Johns River forms San Marco's western edge. During Hurricane Irma in 2017, flooding hit San Marco and Riverside, and water reached about 5 feet in some homes. Flooded slabs can hold moisture and salts for months. We test before coating and choose primers to match.

Shops around San Marco Square

The triangular square at Atlantic Boulevard, Hendricks Avenue and San Marco Boulevard is lined with shops and restaurants. The San Marco Building, the district's first commercial structure, dates from 1927. Older commercial floors can be coated with durable, slip-resistant systems. We schedule around business hours.

Newer infill homes

Not every home is old. Newer houses have slabs that usually need sealer removal and moisture checks. Matching the finish to the home's style is part of the conversation.

Humid days and river air

Jacksonville's average relative humidity is about 75.8% year-round. Near the river, mornings can be especially damp. We check dew point before coating and adjust timing as needed.

Mixed styles, mixed slabs

Wikipedia notes that few San Marco homes kept to the original Italian Renaissance revival plan, and a diverse mix of styles appeared in the late 1920s. That variety shows up in the garages too. One house may have a thick original slab, while the next has a thin pad poured during a later addition. We measure, test and quote each floor on its own terms rather than assuming.

Do you coat shop floors around San Marco Square?
