Resin flooring Hastings

Resin Flooring in Hastings and St Leonards

Hastings is at the eastern edge of the area we cover regularly. The resin floor work here falls into three groups: industrial estates on the edge of town, seafront cafés and venues from the Stade to St Leonards, and the businesses around the fishing quarter that need floors they can hose down.

Where this works

  • Units on the industrial estates around Hollington
  • Seafront cafés and venues from the Old Town to St Leonards
  • Fish preparation and wash-down rooms
  • Garages and workshops
  • Communal areas in converted flat buildings

How we install it

  1. 1
    Read the duty

    We note what the floor carries, what it is cleaned with and when it can close. A dry store and a fish preparation room need very different builds.

  2. 2
    Test and prepare

    Strength and moisture readings, then mechanical preparation with vacuum recovery. Repairs are priced from the test results.

  3. 3
    Build to the duty

    Epoxy for dry and moderate traffic, PU concrete for wash-down and heat, aggregate broadcast for grip in wet zones.

  4. 4
    Seal and hand back

    Sealed, line marked where needed and handed back in phases so the business keeps working.

Industrial floor coatings in Hastings

The industrial estates on the outskirts of Hastings house engineering, catering, motoring and construction businesses, and their floors carry pallet trucks, vehicles and spills. Epoxy resin flooring suits most dry units, while polyurethane flooring takes heat and cleaning chemicals. Anti-slip grades are set zone by zone; see anti-slip floor coating and workshop and MOT bay floors for those builds.

The Stade, the seafront and wash-down floors

Hastings still has a beach-launched fishing fleet on the Stade, and the cafés, fish sellers and venues along the seafront need hard-wearing floors that can be hosed down. PU concrete with a coved junction is the build for those rooms, because the cove removes the seam at the wall. See PU concrete flooring for the specification.

Older buildings and converted flats

Hastings has a large stock of converted flats and 18 conservation areas, from the Old Town to Burtons' St Leonards and Warrior Square, with over five hundred listed buildings near the centre. Shared floors and stores in those buildings often take resin, but listed buildings can need consent from Hastings Borough Council. For decorative finishes in period homes, see our Hastings page.

Common pitfalls we prevent

Using an epoxy coating in a wash-down room that needs PU concrete
Too little grip on a wet floor, or too much on a floor that must be mopped
Coating an old slab without testing for moisture first

Frequently asked

Do you lay resin floors in Hastings and St Leonards?+

Yes. Hastings is at the eastern edge of the area we cover regularly, including St Leonards, Hollington, Ore and Silverhill.

What floor suits a fish preparation room?+

PU concrete with a poured cove, because it takes hosing, hot water and cleaning chemicals, and the cove removes the seam at the wall.

Can you work around a business that cannot close?+

Usually, by phasing the floor in bays or working out of hours, and by using fast-cure systems where needed.

Do you do epoxy flooring for garages in Hastings?+

Yes. Domestic garages get an epoxy or polyaspartic coating over a ground and moisture-tested slab.
