Epoxy Flooring in Regan, ND

Most of the epoxy flooring we quote around Regan goes on a shop slab. The town itself is small. The 2020 census counted 35 residents and Wikipedia lists 31 housing units in 2010, so the concrete that matters most out here sits on the farms and acreages around town. Those floors carry tractors, sprayers, pickups and grain trucks. They catch hydraulic fluid, diesel, grease and the mud that comes off tires in spring.

A bare shop slab soaks all of that up. Oil darkens the concrete, fertilizer and road grit wear the surface, and the floor gets harder to sweep every year. A coating bonded to ground concrete gives you a surface that sheds fluids and cleans with a squeegee and a hose.

A town built around machines

Regan grew up after the Northern Pacific built its line through the area in 1912. The early town had a lumber yard, a blacksmith shop and two banks, and an automobile garage opened in 1917. Machines have been part of life here for more than a century. The difference today is size. Combines, tractors and service trucks are heavier and wider than anything that blacksmith ever saw, and a shop floor has to take their weight at the tires and the jack stands.

What we recommend for Regan shops

• Shop & Pole Barn Floor Epoxy for working floors: a thick 100% solids base with a chemical-resistant topcoat that holds up to fuel and hydraulic oil.
• Epoxy Flake Floors where you want grip near the doors and around the wash area. The chips also hide dust between cleanings.
• Garage Floor Coating for the attached garage at the house, which usually sees lighter traffic and more road brine.
• Polyaspartic Floor Coating when you can only spare the building for a short window between field seasons.

Timing around the farm calendar

We know a machine shed cannot sit empty in the middle of planting or harvest. Many Regan-area owners book the floor for a stretch when the equipment can be parked outside or in another building. A full shop job takes several days once you count grinding, crack repair, coats and cure time. Polyaspartic systems shorten the return to service. We give you the dates in writing so you can plan the move-out.

Older slabs and add-on buildings

Farm shops often grow in stages. One section may be decades old with a worn, oil-soaked surface, and the newer addition may be smooth and sealed. A single coating has to bond to both. We grind each section to open the surface, cut out oil-saturated spots where needed, and fill the joint where old and new concrete meet. If a section has heaved or is cracked through, we will tell you before we price it.

Winter in north Burleigh County

Regan sits at about 2,031 feet with a humid continental climate. Wikipedia describes the pattern as warm, often humid summers and cold, sometimes severely cold winters. In an unheated shed that means the slab can stay below a safe coating temperature for months. We schedule unheated buildings for the warmer part of the year. A heated shop can often be done in the off-season, which is also when the floor is easiest to empty.

Sizing a quote for a big building

A machine shed can be many times the size of a two-stall garage, so we measure every bay. Price depends on square footage, how much grinding and patching the slab needs, and which system you choose. We list each of those on the quote. If you only want the working half of a shed coated, we can mark a clean edge and leave the storage side bare.
