Epoxy Flooring in Mesilla, NM

We install epoxy flooring in Mesilla for homeowners and small businesses who want concrete that looks finished and cleans up easily. Mesilla sits on the southwest side of Las Cruces near the center of Doña Ana County. The Rio Grande runs through the western part of town. Wikipedia counts 1,797 residents in 2020. The town was incorporated in 1848, and La Mesilla Historic District, which includes the plaza, became a National Historic Landmark in 1961.

Respecting the historic review process

Mesilla has its own review process for building work. The town's Certificate of Appropriateness application goes through the building inspector, who marks whether a certificate is needed, not needed, or whether a building permit is needed instead. Some applications go to the Historic District Commission for a public hearing. The form covers dwellings, accessory buildings and commercial buildings.

What this means for a floor job:

• An interior garage or shop floor coating usually does not change how a building looks from the street.
• An outdoor patio, courtyard or walkway coating can be visible, so ask the town before choosing a color.
• We give you a written description of the system, color and location so the town has what it needs.

We do not decide for you whether review applies. The town does. We just make the paperwork easy.

Courtyards, portals and patios

Outdoor living spaces are common around older homes and shops in town. A concrete patio or covered porch takes direct sun most of the year. We coat these with a textured exterior system in muted, earthy colors that fit adobe-style walls. A lighter color stays cooler underfoot. The texture gives grip after rain. For a covered portal, we can use a flake system in tones close to the surrounding stucco.

Shops and businesses near the plaza

The plaza has drawn visitors for a long time, and the town was the most important city in the region until 1881, when the railroad went through Las Cruces instead. Today restaurants, galleries and shops serve visitors who come to see it. Their back rooms, storage areas and kitchens often have bare or painted concrete. Our commercial systems seal those floors so spills wipe up and the surface is easy to keep clean. We plan the work for closed days or after hours so you do not lose business.

Garages and casitas

Homes in Mesilla range from old to new. Many have a detached garage, a workshop or a casita on a slab. Some of these floors were poured at different times than the house, and some are thin or uneven. We grind the surface, fix chips and cracks, and coat the space for how you use it. A guest casita might get a metallic or quartz finish. A workshop usually gets a thicker epoxy that holds up to tools and dropped parts.

Matching colors to older buildings

Bright gray or blue garage floors can look out of place next to old walls and wood beams. We carry flake blends in tans, browns and warm grays, and solid colors in muted earth tones. Bring a photo of the room or let us look at the walls in person, and we will lay sample boards on the floor in your own light before you choose.

Closer to the river

Neighborhoods near the river sit on lower valley ground than the east side of Las Cruces. Wikipedia lists the town at about 3,881 feet. Floors here can show more moisture coming up from below than slabs on higher, drier ground. We test the slab for moisture before we quote. If it is high, we use a primer made for damp concrete instead of hoping a standard coat will hold.
