Healthcare Epoxy Flooring Installation
Hospitals and medical offices in Wake County are expanding fast. Duke Raleigh Hospital and UNC Health Rex Hospital both received state approval in 2025 to add 18 beds each, and WakeMed is moving forward with a new hospital in Garner and a 150 bed mental health facility in Knightdale.
Every one of these projects needs flooring that meets strict infection control standards, and that's where we come in.
At Raleigh Epoxy Flooring Pros, we install epoxy flooring systems built for healthcare environments: operating rooms, patient rooms, labs, imaging suites, and corridors that see nonstop foot traffic.
Why Healthcare Facilities Choose Epoxy
Standard vinyl composition tile has seams. Seams collect bacteria, moisture, and debris, and they wear out under rolling carts and hospital beds within a few years. Seamless epoxy solves that problem.
A properly installed system covers the entire floor with no joints for pathogens to hide in, and it can be finished with an integral cove base that runs up the wall so there's no gap where the floor meets the baseboard.
Epoxy floors in a healthcare setting need to do several jobs at once:
- Resist bleach, iodine, alcohol, and other chemicals used in daily disinfection
- Hold up under wheeled equipment like gurneys, IV poles, and surgical carts
- Meet slip resistance requirements in areas prone to spills
- Support static control in operating rooms and imaging suites where electrostatic discharge is a concern
- Allow fast turnaround, since a hospital wing usually can't stay closed for weeks

Systems and Brands We Work With
We install products from manufacturers that healthcare architects and infection control teams already specify. Flowcrete's Flowfresh system uses a built in antimicrobial additive and is one of the most specified floors for operating rooms and clean rooms nationally.
Sherwin-Williams General Polymers makes heavy duty epoxy and MMA systems that cure fast, which matters when a facility only gives us an overnight or weekend window. Dur-A-Flex offers a full line of urethane and epoxy floors with slip resistant options for kitchens, sterile processing, and central supply areas.
We match the product to the room instead of using one system everywhere.
| Area | Common Requirement | Typical System |
|---|---|---|
| Operating rooms | Static control, seamless, chemical resistant | Conductive epoxy or MMA |
| Patient rooms and corridors | Durability, easy cleaning, low odor install | Self leveling epoxy or urethane |
| Labs and sterile processing | Chemical and heat resistance | Novolac or urethane mortar |
| Kitchens and food prep | Slip resistance, thermal shock resistance | Textured urethane mortar |
Most healthcare projects also need to work around a live facility. We schedule installation in phases, use low odor and fast cure products where possible, and coordinate with facility staff so patient care isn’t disrupted.
If you’re planning a renovation, a new build, or need to replace flooring that’s failing in a clinic or medical office in the Raleigh area, we can walk the space and put together a plan that fits your timeline and budget.
