Resin Floor Repairs

A resin floor repair restores safety, appearance and performance to damaged or worn resin floors. From industrial resin flooring in factories to warehouse resin floors exposed to heavy traffic, our repair service removes failed sections and reinstates a seamless, durable finish. Whether the damage affects epoxy flooring, polyurethane screeds, or resin floor joints, Monarch provides a long-lasting professional solution for both commercial and industrial floor repair.

Resin floor repairs are a versatile and effective solution for maintaining and restoring both concrete and existing resin flooring. For concrete-based floors, resin serves as a powerful repair material. It can fill in cracks, creating the seamless and resilient surface needed in busy settings. The resin bonds strongly to the concrete, providing a strong and visually appealing repair.

When it comes to existing resin floors, resin can be used to restore the surface. This process involves applying a new layer of resin over the damaged or worn areas, effectively rejuvenating the floor and extending its lifespan. The new resin layer can seamlessly integrate with the existing flooring, creating a uniform and durable surface.

Overall, resin floor repairs offer a reliable and efficient solution for maintaining and enhancing the appearance and functionality of both concrete and resin-based flooring.

How is resin used to repair floors

Resin floor repairs are a cost-effective way of repairing an existing concrete or resin surface using resin or epoxy mortar. In instances where an existing concrete floor has become damaged it can create many health and safety problems within the industries. 

Sometimes the most cost-effective way is to repair the damage rather than replacing the entire floorWe conduct epoxy floor repairs throughout the UK in both commercial and industrial settings. 

In some cases, repairing a concrete floor may also be essential before a new resin floor is installed as any major holes would be apparent once the resin has been installed. Repairing the floor professionally before installation is vital and can make a great difference in the finished resin. This can be achieved by repairing any larger holes, adding a screed and or grinding the floor using a diamond grinder. These steps are taken to ensure that the finished resin system has a smooth, seamless appearance

A seamless resin floor comes with its advantages, such as being easy-to-clean, not attracting dust/dirt and having an attractive finish. The resin floor will still have its usual advantages of being stronger than concrete, customisable and having chemical and slip-resistant properties depending on the product which is being installed.

The main types of repairs which are achieved using a resin are concrete hole repair, resurfacing/screeding, cracks/joint repairs, concrete floor repair with resin. Each of these types of floor repairs has different installation methods and should be researched properly before a suitable repair method is chosen. Monarch gives free technical advice and site surveys to help you decide what’s best for your damaged floor.

repair process example

To give an overview of the repair process which we undertake. Here is a step by step example of a repair taken out on an industrial floor using epoxy resin bulk.

  1. Site Inspection and Diagnosis
    We identified the damaged floor, assessed substrate condition, and tested coating compatibility.

  2. Preparation
    The damaged sections were removed, all rubble was taken away and the area was cleared ready for repair.

  3. Rebuild and Application
    We reinstated the area with a suitable epoxy resin bulk, selected to match operational demands. The repair was installed by hand using a trowel to ensure a smooth finish.

  4. Finishing
    When the floor repair finished curing, a resin coatings were installed on top after proper preparations carried out. Colour and texture are matched to existing areas, creating a smooth, continuous surface ready for service.

  5. Aftercare and Maintenance
    A new resin coating on top of repairs can refresh a whole workshop, factory or warehouse. It can create areas which are hard wearing and stand out. Our technicians provided guidance on cleaning and maintenance.

types of resin floor repair

Concrete repairs using resin

When a concrete floor becomes damaged, it is often more cost-effective to repair the affected areas rather than replace the entire surface. Epoxy resin repair systems provide a durable, long-lasting, and potentially chemical-resistant solution.

Once cured, epoxy resin repairs form a granite-hard structure that is often stronger than the original concrete. These repairs are especially suited to industrial environments such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, and processing facilities, where the flooring must withstand heavy traffic, chemical exposure and machinery impact.

Typical cure times range between 8–12 hours, allowing minimal downtime before the area can return to service. Learn more about our industrial resin flooring and warehouse flooring systems for similar applications. We also suggest looking into The Resin Flooring Associations guides on resin flooring systems for more information. 

Resurfacing and resin screeding

When damage spreads across a wider area, a self-levelling resin screed may be the most effective solution. This resin floor resurfacing technique is poured over the existing substrate to create a smooth, hygienic, and seamless surface.

A self-levelling epoxy or polyurethane screed can rejuvenate concrete floors that have become scuffed, chipped, or scratched. These systems also deliver slip-resistant and chemical-resistant finishes, making them ideal for food production, pharmaceutical, and engineering environments. 

Industrial resin screeds provide a heavy-duty flooring solution that improves appearance and safety. By combining durability with hygiene, they help create a more effective and compliant working surface. See also polyurethane resin flooring and epoxy resin flooring for system options. See also The Resin Flooring Associations list of surface types.

cracks and joint repair

Although concrete floors are designed for heavy-duty use, they are rigid and lack flexibility. This makes them prone to cracks and surface separation over time. A resin flooring system can not only repair these issues but also help prevent future movement through the use of resin floor jointing.

Cracks can be filled using specialised resin grouts and epoxy injection systems, which seal and smooth the surface while restoring safety and durability. Smaller epoxy crack repairs (up to 2cm deep) are especially cost-effective, preventing minor cracks from spreading and compromising the surrounding concrete.

Resin jointing products allow for controlled movement of the floor structure without deforming the joint edges. Unlike traditional mastic or silicone joints, resin joints offer superior strength, chemical resistance, and long-term stability in industrial settings.

FAQs

What is resin floor repair?
Resin floor repair is the process of removing damaged or failed resin sections, preparing the substrate, and reinstating a seamless, durable surface. It restores function and safety to industrial and commercial resin floors.

Can all resin floors be repaired?
Yes, most epoxy and polyurethane floors can be repaired. We assess the type of system, age and damage to ensure compatibility before carrying out works.

How quickly can an area return to service?
We use standard and rapid-cure resins depending on temperature and downtime needs. Smaller areas can often be reopened within 12–24 hours.

Will the repaired area match the rest of the floor?
We colour match and texture match wherever possible. Older floors may show slight tone differences, but the performance and protection will be uniform.

Can you repair resin floor cracks and joints?
Yes. We carry out resin joint repair using compatible semi-rigid systems such as Monarjoint for long-term stability and edge protection against breakdown.

Summary

In conclusion, when dealing with repairs of concrete, it is clear resin is the most cost-effective and durable substance to use. Furthermore, if you have scuffs, scratches and scrapes which need covering, an epoxy self-levelling screed may be the best option. For larger holes, a resin grout or mortar would be the best aid. For cracks in concrete, an epoxy resin applied through a grouting gun can seal the cracks. This makes them waterproof and stops them from getting bigger or creating a work hazard.
