Expert Floor Coating Solutions for Every Commercial & Industrial Facility
Cambridge Facility Flooring Solutions That Protect, Perform, and Last
Donlon Coatings delivers durable, high-performance flooring systems designed specifically for the challenges of commercial and industrial environments. Each solution is developed with a focus on long-term performance, safety, and day-to-day practicality—not just visual appeal.
One area of expertise is mechanical room flooring, where Donlon installs advanced systems with moisture-resistant membranes, sealed edges, and containment features to prevent water intrusion. These systems are capable of holding several inches of standing water, providing essential time for facility teams to act in the event of leaks or equipment malfunctions—helping prevent costly structural damage.
In support and utility areas like janitor closets, storage rooms, and back-of-house spaces, Donlon applies flooring that is slip-resistant, chemical-tolerant, and abrasion-resistant—ideal for environments where heavy equipment, cleaning agents, and constant traffic are daily concerns.
For public or customer-facing spaces, polished concrete offers a sleek, contemporary appearance that’s also incredibly durable. Ideal for office entryways, common areas, and meeting rooms, these floors can be customized with color treatments, patterning, and finish options to align with architectural and branding needs.
Donlon also serves the hospitality and food service sectors, with kitchen flooring systems built to withstand high temperatures, aggressive cleaning routines, and heavy usage. Decorative or hygienic finishes can also be applied to front-of-house areas like dining rooms and restrooms to blend function with style.
Across all industries, Donlon Coatings tailors every installation to meet operational demands while extending floor life, minimizing maintenance, and enhancing facility safety and appearance—ensuring floors perform as hard as the teams that use them.

Tailored Floor Systems for Every Facility Type
Check out some of our past projects below!
F.W. Webb – Roxbury, MA | Dual-System Retail & Showroom Flooring Project
This two-story flooring project in Roxbury, Massachusetts, was completed for long-term client F.W. Webb, a leading plumbing and heating distributor. The ground floor, designed for high-foot-traffic retail where contractors shop for supplies, received a durable wet polish concrete system to handle daily wear while maintaining a clean, professional look. The second floor—home to the upscale Frank Webb Home showroom—features a Reflections epoxy system, chosen for its glossy finish, durability, and high-end aesthetic. This project demonstrates our ability to implement customized flooring systems that balance performance, branding, and user experience across varied commercial spaces.
Research Drive – Wilmington, MA | Commercial Flooring Project
This commercial flooring project in Wilmington, Massachusetts, involved the installation of a high-performance resin flooring system in a future lab and office space. During initial concrete testing—part of our standard pre-installation process—we discovered high moisture and sodium levels in the slab, a common issue for New England buildings located near wetlands. To ensure long-term durability and adhesion, extensive floor prep was required before applying a new Sherwin-Williams industrial floor coating system. This project showcases our expertise in moisture mitigation, concrete slab analysis, and lab-grade flooring solutions for commercial environments.
Clean Rooms / Special Use Rooms
Durable, seamless cleanroom flooring is critical for environments like hospital operating rooms, pharmaceutical labs, and electronics manufacturing facilities. These high-performance floor systems are designed to be chemical-resistant, impact-resistant, and impervious to bacteria, providing a smooth, non-porous surface that supports strict hygiene and infection control standards. In addition to medical-grade flooring, we offer electrostatic dissipative (ESD) flooring solutions that prevent static discharge in sensitive electronics or semiconductor environments. Our custom industrial flooring installations meet the rigorous requirements of cleanroom environments, helping maintain sterile, dust-free, and contamination-resistant spaces.
Arsenal Place – Watertown, MA | Waterproof Mechanical Room Flooring
At Arsenal Place in Watertown, MA, our team installed a heavy-duty waterproof flooring system in the penthouse mechanical room of this multistory commercial building. These upper-level spaces house critical HVAC and lab support systems—including pressurized water, steam, and chemical vessels—which demand reliable liquid containment. We specialize in mechanical room flooring solutions, including concrete crack repair, perimeter dam installation, and the application of high-performance waterproof coatings. Our work ensures that in the event of a leak or equipment failure, the floor system prevents water damage to sensitive lab and office environments below.
