Epoxy Flooring

If you need a hardwearing floor that looks great and lasts even in high traffic areas you should consider epoxy flooring.

Epoxy flooring is made out of some form of aggregate over which a layer of resin is laid. The resin is designed to dry to a high gloss, smooth and durable finish.

The Advantages of Epoxy Flooring

There are numerous advantages to buying epoxy flooring, but the biggest reason to buy is that it is durable.

The other reason epoxy flooring is so popular is the huge choice you get. The range of aggregates that can be used include marble, granite, glass, quartz, flint, mother of pearl and a huge range of other natural stones, shells or durable man made materials. This huge choice means that you can have practically any colour you want. Epoxy flooring blends in with any style of decor.

If you want your company logo included on your reception area floor you can do so if you have an epoxy floor laid.

Epoxy flooring is also very easy to maintain. All it needs is to be swept and wiped over using a mop, water and mild detergent and occasionally polished. It stands up well to industrial wet and dry cleaning machines and can also be polished using a machine, so maintenance need not be expensive or time consuming.

Buying Good Quality Epoxy Flooring

The most important thing you need to do when buying epoxy flooring is to find a firm who has plenty of experience at laying this type of flooring. Getting a good finish on epoxy flooring is not easy. You really have to know what you are doing to achieve a finish that not only looks good, but lasts as well.

The other advantage of using an experienced, well established firm to lay your epoxy flooring is that their guarantee will actually mean something. There is no point in buying a floor with a 6 year guarantee only to find that when you have a problem the company you brought it from has gone out of business rendering your guarantee all but worthless.Quest Ltd has laid epoxy flooring for many of the UK’s major supermarket chains. They also have experience in laying floors in factories, shopping centres and many other buildings.
