Reading programme

How we run floor coatings schemes locally.

1. 01 · Survey

   Substrate moisture test (Tramex or hygrometer), cohesion check, traffic load assessment, chemical exposure inventory, downtime window. The cure schedule is agreed before specification, not after.

2. 02 · Specification

   System selected by substrate, load class and use: epoxy screed for heavy forklift traffic, polyurethane for food environments and thermal cycling, chemical-resistant PU where required. Anti-slip aggregate grade specified if needed. Cure schedule set to the system, not the client's preferred weekend.

3. 03 · RAMS

   Project-specific RAMS including ventilation plan, pedestrian and forklift exclusion zones during application and cure, COSHH for solvent and catalyst components.

4. 04 · Delivery

   Shot-blast or diamond-grind substrate, vacuum clean, apply primer, lay system coats to specified film build, broadcast aggregate if in spec, cure, line-mark.

5. 05 · Handover

   As-applied record (product batch, film thickness readings, application temperatures), anti-slip classification where applicable, cleaning and maintenance regime.

Frequently asked · Reading

What clients in Reading usually ask first.

Can you decorate occupied office floors?

Yes. Thames Valley work is mostly live: phased floor-by-floor, low-odour systems, and evening or weekend cuts so staff keep working around us.

Do you spray on site?

Yes. On-site spraying gives a factory-grade finish to partitions, doors and joinery without removing them, contained and masked for an occupied building.

How far do you cover from Reading?

The whole Thames Valley: Bracknell, Slough, Maidenhead, Newbury and the M4 parks between Reading and London.

How long is the cure before forklift traffic?

Walk-on is typically 12-24 hours. Forklift-ready is typically 5-7 days, depending on system and temperature. Confirmed in writing per scheme.

Can you include anti-slip?

Yes. Aluminium oxide, glass bead or quartz aggregate broadcast into the topcoat. Slip-resistance rating to the specified class.

Will it survive heavy forklift traffic?

Yes, with the right system. We specify to the actual traffic load class, not a generic warehouse spec.

Can it be done over a weekend?

Some systems can, some can't. It depends on substrate moisture, ventilation and the cure rate. We agree the realistic handover at survey, based on the actual cure time.

What warranty comes with the floor?

System-dependent. Most schemes ship with a manufacturer-backed warranty where we are the approved applicator.
