Concrete Shield Coatings has adopted a new resin technology for basement epoxy flooring, enhancing performance in moisture-prone environments. Recently named one of the 2025 Best Home Service Companies in Northbrook, the company continues to lead in advanced floor coatings and epoxy flooring services.

Northbrook, Illinois, United States, July 11, 2025 -- Concrete Shield Coatings, a Northbrook-based epoxy flooring company specializing in residential and commercial floor coatings, has announced the adoption of a new resin-based flooring system designed specifically for basement applications. The resin formulation, engineered for durability in moisture-prone environments, represents a strategic investment by the company in addressing one of the most common challenges in residential flooring: long-term protection and performance in below-grade spaces.

This innovation comes as the company is also being recognized among the 2025 Best Home Service Companies of Northbrook, IL, a distinction awarded to a select group of locally trusted businesses known for consistent service excellence, community reputation, and industry leadership.

The new basement epoxy flooring technology, developed in collaboration with a U.S.-based material science firm, introduces enhanced vapor tolerance, thermal flexibility, and surface adhesion properties. It is specifically formulated to perform in the unique environmental conditions typical of residential basements, including high humidity, temperature variation, and occasional groundwater exposure.

“Basements present a unique set of challenges when it comes to flooring durability and stability,” said Dimitri Kilin, owner of Concrete Shield Coatings. “This new resin system was selected after a series of trials for its ability to maintain integrity under hydrostatic pressure and fluctuating temperatures, which are common in Midwestern homes.”

Concrete Shield Coatings has built a strong local reputation for its epoxy flooring services, including garage, commercial, and basement applications. The company has been frequently cited in local directories and online searches for epoxy flooring company and floor coatings contractors due to its workmanship, product knowledge, and project reliability. Its services have gained particular recognition for custom design options and long-lasting surface performance.

The company’s decision to incorporate this new resin technology is driven in part by customer feedback, collected over years of working on basement renovations, finishing projects, and moisture mitigation solutions. In addition to traditional epoxy systems, the new product line includes polyaspartic and hybrid coatings that allow for faster curing times and reduced disruption during installation.

“This resin doesn’t just adhere—it bonds in a way that resists delamination even when concrete conditions aren’t ideal,” Kilin noted. “It’s particularly useful in retrofit projects, where substrates may already have minor imperfections or a history of moisture intrusion.”

The company’s recognition as one of Northbrook’s Best Home Service Companies for 2025 reflects its commitment to responsive customer service, transparent project planning, and adoption of best practices in material handling and installation. Selected businesses are evaluated based on verified customer reviews, service consistency, technical skill, and contributions to the local economy.

Concrete Shield Coatings was founded with a focus on providing high-performance flooring solutions that balance aesthetics, safety, and longevity. Over the years, the company has expanded its offerings to serve a wide range of residential and light commercial needs—from decorative garage coatings to high-traffic shop floors to basement epoxy flooring systems designed for comfort and utility.

“Our mission has always been rooted in building durable, long-term solutions for real environments,” said Dimitri Kilin. “To be recognized in the 2025 Best Home Service Companies list is a reflection of the care and attention our team brings to every project. It means a great deal to us and reinforces our commitment to innovation.”

Industry-wide, the demand for durable, low-maintenance flooring systems continues to grow, particularly in regions where fluctuating climate and moisture levels make conventional flooring materials less reliable. Concrete Shield Coatings’ new adoption reflects a broader trend of specialization in the coatings industry—moving beyond one-size-fits-all solutions toward application-specific systems that prioritize performance in real-world conditions.

According to company records, basement epoxy flooring projects have increased by 42% over the past three years, largely driven by a shift in how homeowners are using below-grade spaces. As basements are increasingly converted into living areas, home gyms, and recreational zones, the need for resilient, low-VOC, easy-to-clean flooring solutions has risen significantly.

In response, the new resin line meets both residential safety standards and environmental guidelines, with reduced odor and chemical exposure during installation. The technology also improves resistance to common household spills, abrasions, and microbial growth—critical features in spaces with prolonged floor contact or limited ventilation.

Concrete Shield Coatings has initiated staff training and quality control procedures to ensure that installation teams are equipped to apply the new resin system in accordance with manufacturer specifications. All technicians are certified in substrate preparation, moisture testing, and finish quality assurance.

As part of its commitment to transparency and homeowner education, the company also offers pre-installation assessments that include slab moisture readings, adhesion testing, and finish recommendations tailored to intended use.

“This is about more than just coatings,” Kilin added. “It’s about understanding the real-world conditions our clients face and applying the right materials in the right way. This new system allows us to do that better than ever.”

The company continues to operate from its headquarters in Northbrook, IL, serving homeowners and businesses across the northern suburbs of Chicago. With this latest innovation and its continued recognition by the local community, Concrete Shield Coatings is positioned to remain a regional leader in epoxy flooring solutions.
