Basement Floor Coatings · North Hudson, WI · Est. 2003
North Hudson is the village immediately north of Hudson on the east bank of the St. Croix River, in St. Croix County, with Highway 35 running the length of it. It was settled heavily by Italian families, and the Pepper Festival it has held since 1954 still falls on the third full weekend of August. About 20 minutes north of River Falls. We install polyurea + polyaspartic floor coatings for North Hudson homeowners: diamond-ground prep, custom flake colors, 1–2 day install, written 15-year warranty. An older core near the water with houses from the late 1800s through the 1940s, then a large postwar build-out behind it: the village went from about a thousand people in 1960 to over three thousand by 1990, so most of the housing outside the core is 1960s through 1990s, with newer construction on the east side.
Basement Floor Coatings in North Hudson
North Hudson is a narrow village stretched along the river, and its concrete divides on elevation more than on address. Down near the water, in the older core and along the riverfront, houses run from the late 1800s through the 1940s and their garages are frequently detached and unheated, on slabs poured decades after the house. An unheated slab has to be warm enough for the polyurea to cure, and an old slab gets read before it is quoted: concrete that age is often thin, sometimes has no vapor barrier under it, and usually carries a coat of floor paint somebody rolled on. Behind and above that band, the 1960s through 1990s build-out is conventional attached two-car garage stock on slabs that grind predictably. Anything within a block or two of the St. Croix carries more ground moisture than the ground uphill, so a lower level or walkout down there gets tested before a coating goes on it. Highway 35 runs through the middle of the village, and the salt off it comes into garages on tires all winter.
North Hudson basements near the river are the ones to test. The low ground along the St. Croix keeps the water table close, and a slab passing moisture will lift a coating within a season. Every lower level and walkout down there gets a calcium chloride test before it is quoted, and a high reading means a vapor-mitigation primer goes under the polyurea. Homes up the slope in the 1960s through 1990s ring usually read clean.
Why we don't install epoxy in North Hudson
Basements are the worst environment for an epoxy floor coating. Three reasons compound: moisture transmits through below-grade slabs constantly (epoxy is moisture-intolerant and delaminates), VOCs are a real concern in enclosed basement spaces with limited ventilation (epoxy off-gasses for days), and basements settle and shift over decades of freeze-thaw (rigid epoxy cracks). Polyurea fixes all three. Here's the side-by-side:
If you've been searching for "basement floor sealer" or "basement epoxy," polyurea is what those terms should resolve to. Same flake colors. Same approximate price as a contractor-grade epoxy install. Vastly better suited to a basement.

Pricing is upfront because you should know if we're in your budget before we drive out. Every number includes diamond-ground prep, MVER moisture testing, polyurea + polyaspartic system, your color choice, and the 15-year warranty. The line items below are typical Wisconsin basements. Final number depends on slab condition + any moisture mitigation needed.

If your slab tests high on moisture (~15% of basements do), add ~$2 / sq ft for a moisture-mitigation primer. Send four photos and Dave will text back a real number same-day. No quote-bot, no sales rep, no follow-up calls.
The 6-step install
Same checklist on every floor. The reason our coatings still look new at year ten when the cheap stuff peeled in year two.
