Epoxy Flooring in Fairacres, NM

Epoxy flooring in Fairacres usually means more than one building. Fairacres is a small unincorporated community on US 70 west of Las Cruces. Wikipedia counted 720 residents in 2020 spread across 2.11 square miles, or about 342 people per square mile. Compare that to more than 1,700 per square mile in some east-side neighborhoods. Lots here have room for a house, a garage, a workshop and sometimes a business building, and we coat all of them.

Room for a workshop

With space to spread out, many Fairacres owners have a shop where they fix cars, build furniture or keep equipment. Shop floors take dropped tools, rolling jacks, solvents and oil. Bare concrete soaks all of that up. Our shop systems use a thick epoxy base and a chemical-resistant topcoat. We can add a grit texture in work areas and keep a smoother finish where you roll carts.

Good to know for shop floors:

• Grinding removes old oil from the surface so the coating bonds
• Cracks get filled so carts and creepers roll smoothly
• Lines or color zones can mark work and walk areas
• Floor drains stay open and the coating is finished cleanly around them

Small businesses on US 70

Fairacres has been home to small makers. Wikipedia notes The Truck Farm, LLC, founded in 1996, which manufactures and ships seasonings from here, and a vineyard once run by Barbara Funkhouser, the first woman to edit the El Paso Times. Food and drink businesses need floors that clean up easily and do not hold spills. We install sealed, seamless coatings for storage rooms, packing areas and production spaces, with textured finishes where floors get wet. We plan work around your production schedule.

Family garages too

Not every Fairacres job is a shop. The community has had its own post office since June 15, 1926, and its own elementary school run by Las Cruces Public Schools. Families here need a garage that holds the cars, the bikes and the school gear. A flake floor with a clear topcoat is our usual pick. It cleans up fast and hides the dirt that comes in on shoes and tires.

How we price a property with several slabs

We measure each building and list it on its own line. That way you can coat the garage now and the shop later, or do everything at once. Each line shows the prep work, the system and the number of coats. Nothing gets added after the fact without your approval.

West of the river

Fairacres sits at about 3,895 feet, west of the Rio Grande, close to the valley floor. Slabs here can pick up more moisture from below than slabs on higher ground east of the city. Before we coat a shop or garage, we take moisture readings. If the slab is damp, we use a primer made for damp concrete, so the coating does not lift or bubble later. That one step prevents most of the coating failures we see on older valley slabs.
