When Is Sports Floor Maintenance Needed?
Regular sports floor maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity and performance of your flooring. Signs that maintenance is needed include visible wear and tear, a noticeable loss of grip, surface scratches, or discolouration.
We use specific methods such as buffing and recoating, which help restore the floor's finish and improve its traction. In high-usage areas like gymnasiums and community centres, we recommend scheduling maintenance every six to 12 months.
We adhere to industry standards such as the EN 14904 for sports surfaces to ensure the work meets the required safety levels.
If moisture exposure is a concern, we can conduct moisture checks using calibrated hygrometers to address potential warping or swelling. Keeping a regular maintenance schedule not only enhances safety but also extends the lifespan of the flooring.
