Epoxy Floors NJ to resurface Long Hill baseball dugouts through new community initiative
STIRLING, N.J. (Morris County) — Epoxy Floors NJ has launched a new community initiative aimed at improving local recreational facilities, with its first project focused on resurfacing dugouts at the Long Hill Township baseball complex.
The Stirling-based company announced its “Paying It Forward” program, which will begin with a full upgrade of dugout floors used by the Long Hill Baseball and Softball Association.
The company is donating materials and labor to convert existing concrete surfaces into slip-resistant, durable flooring designed for high-traffic use.
“Our ‘Paying It Forward’ initiative is about more than just donation—it’s about using our professional expertise to improve the places where our community gathers,” said Stephen Smedley, founder of Epoxy Floors NJ. “The dugouts are the heart of the game for these kids. By applying our industrial-strength resinous coatings, we’re giving them a big-league experience that can withstand the heavy foot traffic and elements for years to come.”
The resurfacing will use weather-resistant materials typically found in commercial environments and is intended to improve safety and longevity of the facilities.
Officials said the upgraded surfaces will provide improved traction during wet conditions, increased resistance to wear from cleats and changing temperatures, and a more modern appearance.
“We are thrilled to partner with a local business that truly cares about the quality of our town’s facilities,” said a representative from the Long Hill Baseball and Softball Association. “These improvements to our dugouts at the Long Hill complex are a game-changer for our players’ experience and the longevity of our fields.”
The project is expected to be completed in time for the start of the 2026 spring season.
