Concrete floors and coatings in Peru
Kokomo Anchor Epoxy Flooring coats and repairs concrete floors for homes and businesses in Peru, Miami County's seat on the Wabash River. Most calls here are for garage and basement floors in older houses, plus shop and store floors, where the slab often needs crack repair and an old coating ground off first.
Working in Peru: permits, registration and the slab underneath
In Peru, residential permits go through the city's Building Commissioner, who approves work such as additions, new buildings, electrical, roofing, plumbing and HVAC before it starts. Floor coating isn't on that list, but a job that brings listed work along with it has to wait for that approval, so a permit can set the start date. I check with the city before we begin, and we handle the paperwork when a permit is needed.
You can check the contractor, too. Peru requires every contractor working in the city, and anywhere in Miami County, to register with proof of insurance, and if a contractor hasn't registered, neither that contractor nor you as the customer can get a permit. Ask about registration before you sign anything.
The price here comes down mostly to what the slab needs before anything goes on it, such as cracks to fill, old paint or sealer to strip, moisture to deal with and how hard the surface is to grind. Floor size and the finish you pick count too, and the schedule turns on how dry the slab is and the product's weather needs. We work Peru from our base in Kokomo and handle Logansport the same way, and your estimate spells out the prep as well as the finish.

Floor services for Peru homes and businesses
Most Peru jobs start with a garage, basement or shop slab, so the services below run from prep and repair through the coating or finish that suits how you use the floor.
Epoxy Floor Coatings
Epoxy floor coatings give a worn Peru slab a tough, cleanable surface once we've ground it and filled the cracks.
Commercial & Industrial Epoxy Floor Coatings
For shops, plants and stores in Peru, commercial and industrial epoxy floor coatings stand up to carts, forklifts and spills.
Garage Floor Coatings
Many garages here have stained, cracked slabs, and garage floor coatings seal them against oil and whatever your tires carry in.
Polyaspartic Floor Coatings
When you'd like the garage back sooner, polyaspartic floor coatings cure faster than epoxy and hold their color in sunlit spots.
Metallic Epoxy Flooring
Metallic epoxy flooring suits a finished basement or showroom in Peru where you want the floor to look like more than concrete.
Urethane Cement Flooring
Food shops and plants that wash down hot or handle chemicals usually do better with urethane cement flooring than standard epoxy.
Polished Concrete Flooring
If your slab is sound, polished concrete flooring grinds and hones it to a hard shine with no coating to wear off.
Stained Concrete Flooring
Stained concrete flooring adds color to a Peru basement or store floor without hiding the character of the concrete.
Terrazzo Flooring
For a lobby or entry with heavy foot traffic, terrazzo flooring gives a lasting surface over a properly prepared slab.
Basement Flooring
Basement slabs in Peru get a moisture check from me before basement flooring goes down, because damp concrete lifts coatings.
Concrete Grinding & Surface Preparation
Most coating jobs here start with concrete grinding and surface preparation, which opens the surface so the coating has something to grip.
Concrete Sealing
A clear coat of concrete sealing helps a sound patio, walk or garage slab here shed water and stains.
Concrete Resurfacing & Overlays
When a slab is pitted but solid underneath, concrete resurfacing and overlays give it a new top without tearing it out.
Self-Leveling Concrete & Overlays
Uneven floors in older buildings can be flattened with self-leveling concrete and overlays before tile, carpet or a coating goes on.
Pool Deck Coatings & Resurfacing
Pool deck coatings and resurfacing cover cracked or faded backyard decks with a slip-resistant texture that's easier on bare feet.
Concrete Floor Stripping & Removal
Paint or a failed coating left by a past owner comes off with concrete floor stripping and removal before anything new goes down.

From your first call to the final walk-through, the job runs in four steps, and the slab gets tested before anyone talks about color.
Call or send the form
Call (765) 319-0314 or use the form, and we'll set a time for me to come out to Peru and see the floor.
I test the slab and estimate
I check the slab for moisture, old coatings and cracks, then give you an estimate that explains the prep as well as the finish.
We prep and coat the floor
We pick a date that suits you and the product's weather needs, then our crew and I grind, repair and coat the floor.
We walk the floor together
Once the coating is down, we clean up and walk the finished floor with you so you can look it over and ask questions.
Why Peru homes and shops call our crew
The owner sees it through
I test the slab myself and work the job with our crew, so the person who quoted it sees it done.
Cracks repaired before coating
A city parks plan found many Peru sidewalks cracked with weeds between, so we plan crack repair into older slabs before coating.
A straight answer on readiness
If a slab is too damp or too damaged to hold a coating, I'll tell you rather than coat it anyway.
Licensed, insured, guaranteed
We're licensed and fully insured, in business since 2017, and our floors are backed by our satisfaction guarantee.

Questions about floor work in Peru
These are the questions people in Peru tend to ask about permits, contractor registration and getting a slab ready. If your floor raises a different one, call or send the form.
Do I need a permit to coat a garage or basement floor in Peru?
The online copy of Peru's city code lists floor covering among its permit exceptions, along with minor repairs and general maintenance. Your own job can still need a permit if it brings other work with it, such as new electrical, so we confirm with the city before we start, as described above.
Does a flooring contractor have to register to work in Peru, Indiana?
Yes, contractors have to register to work in Peru and across Miami County, and the city's registration carries a $25.00 fee, while Miami County's registration lists a $50.00 fee. Registering at either office covers both, and the city says a contractor won't pay at both. Registration runs by the calendar year and has to be renewed before a contractor can pull permits.
How much does it cost to epoxy a garage floor in Peru?
Your price comes from the condition of your floor, so I give you a figure after I've tested the slab at your house. The biggest swing is prep, because a sound, bare slab takes less work than one with old paint to strip, wide cracks or moisture to manage. A plain solid color usually costs less than a decorative flake or metallic finish.
How long does a garage floor coating job take in Peru?
The time on site depends on the floor's size and the prep it needs, and when you can drive on it follows the maker's cure times for the coating we use. Polyaspartic usually lets you back on sooner than epoxy. The start date turns on dry concrete, the product's weather needs and the city's approval if your job needs a permit.
What causes epoxy to peel off a garage floor?
Most peeling comes from moisture rising through the slab, or from a coating laid on concrete that wasn't ground or on top of old paint or sealer it couldn't grip. That's why I test for moisture and look for old coatings before quoting, and why we grind and strip before anything new goes down.
Can you put epoxy on a damp basement floor in Peru?
Not until I know how much moisture is coming through, because a coating on a damp slab can lift. I test the basement slab on my visit, and if it isn't ready, I'll tell you plainly and explain what it would take rather than put down a floor that won't hold.
