THE PROS AND CONS OF EPOXY FLOORING IN YOUR HOME
Epoxy floors are often used in industrial and commercial settings. Now people are beginning to realise that epoxy floors could be a good option in their own homes. Whether it be a garage floor, kitchen floor or bathroom floor, it is best to know the pros and cons of installing epoxy floors. In this guide, we will give you a general idea of why epoxy floors can be great and when you may be better off choosing a different flooring option.
PROS OF EPOXY FLOORS
Here are the greatest benefits of epoxy flooring in your home.
It’s Easy To Clean: Everyone hates mopping a tiled floor or constantly vacuuming carpet flooring. Epoxy floors are effortless to clean. You can sweep or mop your epoxy floors without it causing any damage at all. Most people will put epoxy floors in their garage for this exact reason. If you spill things like petrol or oil in the garage, the traditional concrete floors will absorb this and leave a permanent stain. With epoxy floors, you simply wipe up and move on with your day.
It’s Durable: Epoxy floors are tough. If you are worried about parking your car on your epoxy floor because of how nice it looks, don’t be. Your floor will easily handle your car parking on it, and it will handle significant impacts such as dropping heavy weights in your garage gym.
Cleanliness: There is no question that the epoxy finish is going to make your room look more aesthetically pleasing. You can take a dreary old garage and turn it into something that looks like a showroom almost overnight.
Safety: As shiny and clean as our epoxy floors look, they are not slippery. Epoxy floors are slip-resistant to an industrial standard, and they are not nearly as abrasive as concrete flooring. Our epoxy floors are not damaged by water, and they work to repel water so that you can simply wipe it up and avoid any slips.
