Retail Flooring Sector
As part of a refurbishment programme, it was decided that a popular Lincoln store needed to be updated. To minimise disruption to the local community, it was fundamental that the renovation was completed within the shortest time possible. A 24-hour window was provided for the retail flooring installation.
Over the years RESYN has seen a dramatic decline in the time available to complete renovation projects. As a result, we have chosen to specialise in the installation of Degafloor MMA quick-curing resin flooring systems. The company has extensive experience in the retail flooring sector. They are accustomed to working with tight schedules. The Degafloor Flake system, which was chosen for the project, is extremely hardwearing and provides a stylish finish. It is fully cured within just two hours of installation.
The Degafloor Flake system is also seamless making it easy to maintain. The decorative finish is ideal for retail flooring. It is available in a range of colours and can be created in a bespoke finish. We matched the floor finish from existing stores to ensure brand continuity.
As a part of the contract, we removed the existing vinyl and completed the substrate preparation. This included the removal of the latex within the 24-hour period. The vinyl had previously been installed over ceramic tiles. Due to the unique chemical bonding process of MMA resins, we installed the Degafloor Flake system directly onto the tiles. To ensure no joints mirrored through, a 2mm scrape coat was applied before the Degafloor Flake system was installed.
The installation, which totalled over 250sqm, commenced at 7 am and was completed by 2 am the following morning. Due to the quick curing characteristics of the floor, the remaining fit-out could commence that same morning, reducing the duration of the store closure and disruption to the local community.
Beth Devlin, from D2 Projects Ltd who is a consultant for Lincolnshire Co-operative, commented:
“We were impressed with how RESYN carried out this challenging project. They inspected the site well in advance so they were fully aware of any issues that may have occurred and even provided an advice sheet and contact details for the neighbours in the flats above should they have had any concerns. The workmanship and attitude of the workforce was first class.”
