Method/Preparation


Optimum Flooring were called in to have a look at this job as the floor had been damaged as a result of a fire. The whole floor area of around 1800m2 needed a revamp but first our team focused on the areas of damaged floor as shown below. We started by digging out the area most affect by electric kango machines to a depth of 30mm, then we primed the area with a scatter of aggregate before pumping in a deep fill smoothing compound to a depth of 30mm. Once this had cured we applied a clear epoxy seal coat over the top, ready for our works to the whole of the floor area.

Application/Installation


First we mechanically ground the floor by the use of a three-phase mechanical grinding machine, and by the use of mechanical hand tools. Other areas contained small amounts of quarry tiles as shown below, we used electric tile lifters to remove these, before infilling to level out the floor. We then applied a base coat which was a water-based epoxy paint, followed by a first coat of a high build epoxy, before taping out the demarcation lines to match the clients drawing and location of where walkways would be installed.
