The Benefits of Epoxy Flooring
The importance of flooring in any interior design can’t be underestimated. Often, it can make or break a space. As well as providing an aesthetic feel to an indoor setting, it’s essential that flooring can withstand the pressures of daily life. Investing in epoxy flooring (also known as resinous flooring) is a great solution.
This article will highlight the many benefits of switching to epoxy flooring.
Appearance
There are some misconceptions that epoxy flooring is exclusively reserved for places like garages, airports, or mechanical stores. However, epoxy flooring offers a smooth, seamless appearance, making it an attractive flooring solution for any indoor space, whether residential or commercial. Often, the uniformed look of it can transform any space into a showroom.
The flooring also comes in many color combinations, making it ideal for a host of different venues. To enhance the uniform look, homeowners can choose a grey or brown shade. However, they are free to pick something more exciting to complement the space.
It’s durable
When it comes to choosing durable and resistant flooring, epoxy is an excellent option. It is made using resins and hardeners, which creates a chemical reaction that forms a strong material easily bonded to most surfaces. The chemical compounds associated enable a sturdy surface that can withstand the wear and tear of daily activities. Additionally, epoxy flooring is specifically engineered to be able to withstand heavy machinery.
It’s easily maintained
Epoxy flooring is resistant to stains, chipping, and chemicals, making it extremely easy to maintain. Epoxy flooring can easily last up to 10 or 20 years or longer with regular maintenance and touch-ups if installed properly.
Environmentally friendly
These days, more people are becoming aware of the need to protect the environment through sustainable means. For those looking for greener solutions, epoxy flooring is ideal. Once it’s dried, the epoxy resin doesn’t harm the environment. It also runs no risk of erosion over time, so it can’t pollute any surroundings.
Additionally, epoxy flooring is less likely to end up in a landfill. Installation leaves less waste than any other flooring, making it an eco-friendlier option.
Economically efficient
Another benefit of having epoxy flooring installed is that it’s a highly cost-effective solution. Compared to other flooring options, such as hardwood, the cost of each square foot of epoxy flooring is significantly cheaper. Typically, the installation comes to less than $1 per square foot.
It’s safe to use
The number one priority for any floor installation should be ensuring that it’s safe. Fortunately, homeowners can install an anti-slip coating to prevent potential slips and falls on their epoxy-coated floor. Also, epoxy floors don’t have any hidden bumps, minimizing the risk of accidents.
Easy to install
For high-quality results, it’s best to hire a professional contractor to install epoxy flooring. In doing so, homeowners can rest easy knowing that the process will be completed to a high standard. It also lessens the risk of any potential mistakes made by attempting to install it themselves.
