Motus Commercials Frome – Vehicle Workshop Flooring
Motus Commercials invited us to look at a HGV workshop refurbishment project at Frome, totalling 537 square metres. Motus Commercials Frome is an approved DAF dealership in eastern Somerset, South West England, offering a large range of new and used commercial vehicles.
Motus Commercials Frome Brief and Recommendation
At the site visit it was noted that the floor in question would need to be thoroughly cleaned and prepared and PSC Flooring recommended installing a two coat High Build epoxy resin system as well as with demarcation chevrons to the 2 pit areas and reversing lines.
In Preparation
In order to thoroughly clean and prepare existing the concrete surfaces the PSC Team used a totally enclosed diamond grinding floor surface preparation system and totally enclosed handheld 110v diamond grinder for the edges.
The area was then vacuumed clean to remove all residues and dust and repairs were made to any localised damaged concrete, cracks, as required using epoxy mortar compound and epoxy resin filler.
537 Square Metres of High Build Epoxy Resin
Once fully prepared two coats of Resdev Pumatect, high build epoxy resin flooring system were laid in the clients chosen, mid grey to the total floor area.
A 200mm wide area was then masked out to create a band around VOSA pit area, including shaker pads, VOSA rolling road, and Pumatect V high build epoxy resin in safety yellow was laid.
To create the chevrons around VOSA pit area, including shaker pads, VOSA rolling road area, 300mm wide x 200mm deep areas were measured and masked out and laid with Pumatect V high build epoxy resin in black.
Finally a variety of lens beam setter lines and reversing lines were then masked out and laid in Safety yellow and white.
The Job was completed in just 3 days – on time and within budget.
