Shoes squeaking on a gym floor means your athletes are getting the proper amount of traction and are less likely to slip, fall, and get injured. Properly preserving and maintaining your wood floor requires a Screen & Recoat each year (or bi-annually for high-use floors).
During a Screen & Recoat, we rough up the top layer of finish with a light abrasive screening disk which allows the new coat to adhere to the existing finish coats and prevents cracking or peeling. The floor is then tacked with a towel rag until clean and we apply a new coat of finish. The entire process – including drying – generally takes a little over 48 hours. We can do the work on Friday afternoon, and by Monday your finish is dry enough to play on!
A Screen & Recoat keeps your floor glossy while retaining appropriate traction to keep athletes safe. It’ll keep your floor looking and performing at its absolute highest level. Check out our Gym Floor Maintenance Program for discounted pricing on screening and recoating your gym floor.
