An epoxy coating will result in a tough, long lasting flooring solution. These are used over concrete floors in a variety of commercial and industrial applications such as in manufacturing plants, commercial and retail stores, industrial plants, showrooms, garages and more.
Such coatings and floor paints provide a decorative, high gloss finish that is available in a variety of colors and styles. Decorative options that are available when using these coating on floors include terrazzo flooring, chip flooring, and coloured aggregate flooring. It offers an easy to clean and chemically resistant flooring solution. This can be applied directly over new or old concrete floors.
Are you wondering if these flooring systems will work for your particular space or not? Prior to meeting with a flooring installer, you must know where such coatings and resinous floor systems must be avoided.
Uncoated Floors - Uncoated concrete floors can break down quickly, depending on use. Without the ability to withstand severe impact, abrasion and/or chemical exposure, the floor slab can suffer severe damage that would be difficult to repair.
Wood Floors - Wood floors, depending on their age, type and construction, tend to move and bend. This is an undesirable condition for installation of typically epoxy and other resinous flooring systems. These relatively rigid traffic surfaces perform best when applied to similarly inflexible concrete substrates.
Wood substrates must be properly prepared to receive epoxy coatings. It should always undergo testing prior to installation.
Asbestos Tile - Due to the fact that the substrate preparation necessitates grinding or abrading the existing tile surface, it is best to avoid coating over old asbestos tile.
