OVERVIEW OF OUR RESIN FLOORING SYSTEM

Resin Flooring - Strong & Bespoke

Resin flooring is not only strong and durable, but also bespoke. It has the advantage of being tough as well as having a degree of inherent flexibility. 

Resins for Different Applications

Our resin floor applications include - home, office, swimming pool, school, garage, library, gym, restaurant and even retail spaces. Property is typically your biggest investment, a smart investment that you can do is look after the quality of your flooring. Not only will you be using it constantly, it will also be one of the first things that people notice. Naturally the floor stands out from the rest of the room and quality resin flooring can look stunning as well as make a statement! Give your home the kind of quality and validity that you would always be hoping to see.

Fermacell Boards

We suggest our resin floors are laid on timber substrate with an overlay of Fermacell 2E11 Board. These specialist boards are thermally more efficient and eliminate the shrinkage which in time may effect ordinary plywood. In addition to timber substrate we can go over any strong and correct crack free screed.  Talk  us if you need advice about this.

Fermacell 2E11 Overlay Boards can be located through an online search.

Resin Floors & Stairs

We can apply resin over existing tiled or wooden floors regardless of their size. Staircases are also possible (to match the floors) whether it’s for a living room, bedroom, hallway, kitchen, recreational room, bathroom, wet room or shower room area. We can also apply our systems to outside areas (subject to certain conditions), giving continuity from the interior to the exterior.

Underfloor Heating Compatible

Our resin floors are compatible for use with all modern underfloor heating systems for exceptional underfoot comfort.

Substrates, Screeds & Floor Curing

KoolCreations resin floor systems can be installed on any substrate providing the substrate is free of movement and moisture free. Fully cured concrete substrates should provide a fully functional damp proof membrane and any moisture levels should meet our requirements. Normally a concrete screed needs a period of 30 days to fully dry out in favourable environments. The strength of the concrete should be 30N/mm2, offering a flexible tensile strength of 1.3N/mm2. Moisture is our main enemy so we insist it is no greater than 4% when measured using a Calcium Carbide method at the time  of laying. Resin floors need 24hrs to reach a dry/cure level acceptable for light traffic. The full chemical cure takes up to 7 days.

Durometer Shore Hardness Scale

Shore Hardness scales measure the hardness of various materials. Read all about the different Shore Hardness scales and their application.

Resin with Acoustic Properties

We can reduce sound transmission through the use of an elastic sound dampening layer which sits under the resin. This is great for gyms as it is softer and absorbs impact. This treatment lends itself to libraries and is amazing for the home where a pleasing appearance, high walking comfort and minimum noise levels are as important. We use tougher products for garages which require more resistance to heavy weights and general wear and tear. As too in shops and offices where high footfall is a consideration. Our resin flooring is combined with a proprietary shock pad allowing us to achieve results that are softer with less sound transmission.

UV Seal Coats for our Resins

We offer UV resistant seal coats prevent yellowing - in particular lighter colours - from sunlight.
