Maintenance, deep cleaning and re-sealing of resin and epoxy floors.
Resin floors last longer when they're looked after — and "looked after" doesn't mean a mop and warm water. Our maintenance service covers rotary deep cleans, top-coat re-seals in traffic lanes, line-marking refresh and slip-rating re-tests. Planned annually, or on a bespoke schedule around your operation.
A £1,000 top-coat re-seal at year seven is a fraction of the cost of a £15,000 replacement floor at year ten. Maintenance is the cheapest thing you can do to preserve a resin investment. We maintain floors we installed and floors we didn't.
Key benefits
- Rotary deep cleans with neutral-pH detergents
- Top-coat re-seals in worn traffic lanes
- Line-marking and demarcation refresh
- Slip-rating re-tests where required
- Planned annual or bi-annual programmes
- Written condition report each visit
Our installation process
Every resin floor maintenance project follows the same disciplined sequence. Skipping steps is where floors fail — we don't skip.
- Step 01
Condition survey
First visit is a survey — we walk the floor, log wear zones, take slip readings where relevant and put together a maintenance plan.
- Step 02
Rotary deep clean
Rotary scrubber with a coarse pad and neutral-pH detergent lifts embedded grime. Vacuum recovery leaves the floor dry within an hour.
- Step 03
Top-coat re-seal
In worn traffic lanes we apply a fresh 300–500 micron aliphatic PU seal coat. Resets the sacrificial wear layer without touching the base build.
- Step 04
Line marking refresh
Faded aisle marking, hatching and hazard lines are re-cut and re-coated in matching resin — not repainted.
- Step 05
Slip re-test
Pendulum test on wet and greasy zones, written report for your safety file.
- Step 06
Condition report
Each visit ends with a written condition report and forward plan — what needs doing next year, what can wait.
Where it works, where it doesn't
We're honest about specification. A system installed in the wrong environment will fail no matter how well it's laid.
Suitable for
- Industrial and warehouse floors
- Commercial and retail units
- Kitchens and food production
- Showrooms and dealerships
- Any resin floor over 3 years old
Not suitable for
- Floors that have already failed — see Resin Floor Repairs
- Floors past their design life — replacement is more cost-effective
Advantages and trade-offs
Advantages
- Extends floor life 5–10 years for a fraction of replacement cost
- Restores slip rating and marking in one visit
- Written condition report for facilities records
- Fits around your operation
- Available as a one-off or annual contract
Trade-offs
- •Requires area to be offline for the visit — usually 1 day
- •Top-coat re-seal has 24-hour cure before heavy traffic
Durability and lifespan
A well-maintained resin floor delivers its full design life — 15–25 years for heavy-duty systems. A neglected floor typically dulls, marks and wears in 5–8 years.
The single biggest factor in preserving a resin surface is regular grit removal. Grit under a wheel is what abrades a top coat — the wheel itself is inert.
Curing times
Cure schedule at 20°C. Colder conditions extend times; heated cures accelerate them.
| Stage | Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Deep clean dry-off | 1 hour | Vacuum recovery leaves the floor walkable within an hour. |
| Top-coat re-seal walkable | 12 hours | Foot traffic in clean shoes once the seal has gelled. |
| Top-coat re-seal full traffic | 24–48 hours | MHE and heavy loading back on the floor. |
| Line marking cure | 24 hours | Fresh marking ready for wheeled traffic. |
Maintenance and aftercare
Between our visits, keep the daily and weekly routine going — sweep or dust-mop daily, rotary scrub weekly with a neutral-pH detergent.
Log any spills of aggressive chemicals or heavy impact damage between visits so we can address it on the next scheduled visit.
Aftercare checklist
- Daily sweep or dust-mop
- Weekly rotary scrub, neutral-pH detergent
- Walk-off matting at all entrances
- Log spills and damage between visits
- Book maintenance visit annually or bi-annually
Colour, finish and customisation
Maintenance schedules are built around your operation — sites with heavy MHE traffic need more frequent re-seals in aisles; retail and offices are usually annual.
One-off deep cleans and re-seals are available if a full contract isn't a fit.
Available finishes
- ◆Rotary deep clean
- ◆300–500 micron PU re-seal
- ◆Line marking refresh in resin
- ◆Slip pendulum re-test
- ◆Written condition report

Resin Floor Maintenance — frequently asked
How often should a resin floor be maintained?+
Industrial and warehouse: annually. Retail, office, showroom: bi-annually. Kitchens and wet processing: quarterly for slip test, annually for full re-seal.
Can you maintain a floor you didn't install?+
Yes — we maintain floors installed by any contractor, provided the underlying system is still sound.
How much does maintenance cost?+
Typically 5–10% of the original installation cost per year for a planned programme. Far cheaper than replacement.
How long is the site offline for a visit?+
Most visits are 1 day. Larger sites are phased across a weekend.
Do you provide slip test data?+
Yes — pendulum test on wet and greasy zones, written report supplied for your safety file.
