Commercial Kitchen Flooring Systems
Fryer spills, nightly degreaser washdown, walk-in freezer cycles, and a dining room that reopens at 11 AM sharp. Maverick builds the seamless urethane cement kitchen floors that replace failed quarry tile for good.
Every Zone Fails Floors Differently
A kitchen punishes every square foot differently. We zone the build, slope it to the drains, cove it up the walls, and hand it back before service.
Commercial kitchen flooring is typically seamless cementitious urethane — MavCrete UM installed at ¼″ in place of failed quarry tile — because cook lines take hot fryer oil, steam, and thermal cycling through 250°F washdown while dish pits run scalding water and detergent around the clock. Floors are sloped to drain, coved up the walls, and handed back before service.
Cook Line & Fry Stations
Hot fryer oil and steam — thermal shock rated through 250°F washdown. MavCrete UM at ¼″ absorbs the thermal cycling that delaminates thin floors and cracks tile.
Dish Pits & Pot Wash
Scalding water and detergent around the clock. MavTop UQ-HD quartz texture keeps crews on their feet on a permanently wet floor.
Walk-In Coolers & Freezers
Defrost cycles and door-line condensation. Urethane cement tracks the slab through every temperature swing.
Prep & Servery
Cleanable, slip-balanced texture where staff pivot between stations all shift.
Drains, Coves & Transitions
Slope-to-drain rebuilds with MavGrout USP, integral cove base up every wall, and honored joints — the details that decide health inspections.
Back Dock & Waste
Grease bins, hose-down, and cart traffic — the zone everyone forgets and every floor fails first.

Starting points, not prescriptions. Every Maverick system is engineered to the condition of the substrate, the abuse it takes, and the facility’s history with previous floors — the build changes from room to room and plant to plant. Only new construction over bare concrete comes close to a standard build.
The Systems This Industry Specifies
MavCrete Cementitious Urethane
The kitchen system — thermal shock rated, washdown proof, coved and sloped. UM mortar with UF-HD flake and UQ-HD quartz finishes.
