Epoxy Flake Flooring Installation Service

These Are the Spaces Where Our Flake Flooring Goes Down Most Often

We fit flake flooring in all kinds of buildings. Here are the jobs we see most.

• A garage floor that has to handle oil, tyres and daily use
• Workshops, warehouses and factory units
• Kitchens and utility rooms, including the floor around the sink
• Shops, showrooms, gyms and other commercial spaces
• Schools, clinics and other high traffic areas

England and Wales had 647.7 million m² of business floorspace at 31 March 2025, and 410.8 million m² of it was industrial. Add around 2.13 million non-domestic properties on the local rating lists, and you can see how many floors could use hard-wearing flake flooring.

A home garage floor gets the same care as a factory unit floor. Every epoxy flake floor we fit follows the same standard, whatever the size. Our epoxy flake flooring system suits a small utility room as well as a big warehouse.

A Durable, Easy-to-Clean Floor That Handles Daily Wear

An epoxy flake floor resists wear, impact, and abrasion. Our protective topcoat adds strong chemical resistance too, so oil, grease, and cleaning fluids do not eat into it.

There are no grout lines to trap dirt. Spills stay on top, so you wipe them up with a mop and run a vacuum over the floor now and then. It is an easy-to-clean floor that saves you time every week.

Your Epoxy Flake Floor Keeps Its Looks Year After Year

A well-fitted epoxy flake floor keeps its colour for years. The flakes hide scuffs, so cleaning an epoxy flake floor takes minutes, not hours. Flake flooring needs no polish or waxing, and a good epoxy floor should save you time.

Slip Resistance That Protects Your Team and Customers

Our flake flooring adds natural texture to the floor surface. That texture gives your feet grip, even when water or oil hits the floor. Good slip resistance matters because floors hurt people.

In 2024/25, 680,000 workers in Great Britain reported a non-fatal workplace injury. Slips, trips and falls on the same level made up 30% of employee non-fatal injuries reported under RIDDOR. HSE also estimates that slips and trips cost UK employers around £512 million per year.

HSE names water, fluids and other contamination on the floor as a cause of slips. A textured epoxy flake floor will not remove every risk, but it gives you a strong start. The texture and the clear sealer work in tandem to create slip resistance without a floor that is hard to clean.

At Ironpour Resin Flooring, we keep the process simple for you. Here is how your epoxy flake flooring system goes in.

We Bring the Tools, Survey the Site and Prepare the Concrete

At Ironpour Resin Flooring, we turn up with our own tools, including diamond grinders with a vacuum fitted, squeegees, rollers, a mixing station and a floor scraper. We also supply all the material for your epoxy flake flooring system, from the primer to the flakes to the clear sealer. Our crew wear gloves and keep the site tidy.

Every job starts with a visit to check the concrete and test moisture. Surface preparation is what makes a durable epoxy coating, so we never rush it. Concrete must be clean, dry, and mechanically profiled, and we prefer diamond grinding to acid etching for this.

We never lay epoxy on a dirty concrete surface. Once the concrete is ground, we use vacuums and the right tools to keep dust under control, fix cracks and holes, scrape away old residue, and scrape high spots level. Too much moisture can lead to blistering or peeling of the coating, and on new or porous concrete, a moisture seal primer can improve adhesion.

We Handle the Mixing, Lay the Base Coat, and Broadcast the Flakes

Careful mixing matters, because poor mixing ruins a batch. We mix the epoxy and hardener in a clean mixing container, following the manufacturer's instructions. Mixing ratios must be right every time to achieve full strength.

Epoxy has a short pot life and starts to harden fast once mixing ends, so we work as a team. We apply epoxy with a notched squeegee and a roller, and we use a flat blade squeegee to level it. Pot life is short, so we move fast.

Our crew walks the floor wearing spiked shoes, so we leave no footprints in the wet epoxy. Spiked shoes protect the wet base coat, and they stay on until the last flake is down. Without spiked shoes, every footstep would leave a mark.

We apply flakes while the base coat is still wet, because that is how they lock in. The flake broadcast carries on until the floor has complete coverage, then we let the base coat harden. Good mixing and a steady flake broadcast help us achieve an even look, so we apply epoxy in even coats and apply flakes by hand.

We Clean Up, Seal the Floor and Manage the Curing

Once the base coat has hardened, we scrape off the loose flakes with a floor scraper and a putty knife, then vacuum the floor. Next comes a protective topcoat that locks in the flakes and adds chemical resistance and wear protection. That topcoat also helps create a smooth finish that is easy to wipe.

A topcoat applied correctly seals every flake, but a rushed topcoat leaves shiny spots. Our clear topcoat is durable and thick enough to take daily knocks. Poor curing leaves soft patches in the floor coating, so we plan around the curing window.

Curing is where a good epoxy flake floor becomes a great one. Cure times vary with temperature, humidity, and the product, and the full cure can run longer depending on the weather. Good curing needs steady temperature and low dampness, so we tell you when it is safe to walk on your epoxy flake floor once curing ends.

2025 was the UK's warmest year on record in the Met Office series that dates back to 1884, and rainfall hit 1,041.2 mm, around 90% of the 1991 to 2020 average. In southern and central England, March to August rainfall was widely below 50% of average, so we check temperature and damp before every epoxy flake floor goes down, because curing depends on both.

Specialist Installers Who Do This Work Every Day

At Ironpour Resin Flooring, flake flooring is our daily work. Our crew knows how to read a floor, handle the mixing, and avoid costly mistakes in the coating. As experienced epoxy resin flooring contractors, we understand that when an epoxy flake floor is applied correctly, it lasts, and when it is rushed, it fails.

We design each epoxy flake flooring system around your slab, your traffic, and your style. A flake system for a food unit differs from a flake system for a garage, so we pick the right material for each job. At Ironpour Resin Flooring, you get expert advice from the first call to the final walk-around.

Your epoxy flake floor should do the job you need. Our epoxy flake flooring system gives you that, and it looks great too. At Ironpour Resin Flooring, we create a floor that fits your space, your brand, and your budget.
