Advanced Flooring Options

In any veterinary clinic, the health and safety of both animals and staff is the top priority. With rising concerns about infectious diseases such as kennel cough and even bird flu, the importance of a clean, hygienic environment has never been more critical. One of the most overlooked but vital areas in disease prevention is the flooring—and that’s exactly where Rock Solid Surfacing comes in.

Rock Solid Surfacing offers state-of-the-art polyaspartic/polyurea floor coating systems that are ideal for high-traffic, high-sensitivity environments like vet clinics. These floors do more than just look good—they are a long-term investment in the health of your facility and the well-being of your patients.

Floors That Fight Back Against Disease

Traditional flooring surfaces—like tile, linoleum, or concrete—can develop microscopic scratches, seams, and crevices that trap dirt, moisture, and harmful bacteria. Over time, this makes cleaning more difficult and less effective. In a veterinary setting, where animals are constantly coming and going, these conditions can contribute to the spread of kennel cough, canine parvovirus, and other highly contagious illnesses.

The polyaspartic/polyurea coating system used by Rock Solid Surfacing is engineered with tight molecular bonds and increased elongation to minimize microscratches. This means that even under heavy traffic, the surface remains smooth and easy to clean. Dirt, fur, and bacteria can be removed efficiently with a simple solution of water and ammonia, a broom, and a neoprene squeegee—no mops needed to push grime around.



Additionally, this seamless floor system allows for the installation of cove molding, creating a “basin-like” design that keeps water and contaminants from seeping into wall joints. This makes it possible to wash down the entire area without fear of hidden moisture buildup—essential for maintaining sanitation in exam rooms, kennels, and surgical areas.

Bird Flu and Pet Safety

While kennel cough is well-known, veterinarians are now also concerned about the spread of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI)—or bird flu. Once thought to be a risk only to poultry, recent research has shown that domestic cats can contract bird flu, especially when they come into contact with infected birds or contaminated environments. According to the CDC, multiple cases of bird flu in cats were documented in 2023 in the U.S., and the virus was found to be fatal in some instances. In light of these developments, reducing every potential contamination point, including the floors, is a proactive step that responsible clinics are taking.

Fast Installation, Long-Term Durability

One of the reasons veterinary clinics delay flooring upgrades is concern over downtime. Fortunately, Rock Solid’s coatings cure rapidly, allowing for multiple coats to be applied in a single day and full return to service shortly thereafter. Whether you’re resurfacing a kennel area, surgical suite, or front lobby, the quick turnaround means minimal disruption to your operations.

And unlike epoxy, which often requires extended curing time and off-gassing, Rock Solid Surfacing’s systems are zero-VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). That means no harmful fumes during application, making the process safe for both staff and animals.

Branding That Leaves an Impression

In addition to durability and cleanliness, Rock Solid Surfacing offers custom inlaid floor graphics—perfect for adding your clinic’s logo, animal-friendly messages, or wayfinding icons directly into the floor. These graphics are embedded between coating layers, so they won’t wear off over time and can become a standout feature in your facility’s design. It’s a subtle but powerful way to reinforce your brand and create a memorable space for pet owners.
