Gym Floor Maintenance
To preserve the life and beauty of your maple hardwood gym floor, we recommend that the playing surface receive periodic maintenance. We do what is called a “screen and recoat.” in this process we:
- Screen the floor using a machine. This abrades the existing finish and provides a better bond of the new finish. No game lines are affected.
- Two coats of finish are applied.
- Floor needs at least 72 hours to dry.
We recommend a screen and recoat on your gym floor at least once a year. We can help owners and coaches decide on a proper maintenance schedule.
