Epoxy High Build Coatings — Roller-Applied Warehouse Floors
Epoxy high build is the most-specified resin floor coating in the UK — a two- or three-coat roller-applied epoxy system typically 0.5–1 mm thick that seals concrete, resists chemicals and delivers a bright, easy-clean surface at a competitive m² rate. F Wilding Ltd installs epoxy high build coatings nationwide across warehouses, workshops, MOT bays and back-of-house retail.
What is epoxy high build coatings?
An epoxy high build system is applied as multiple roller-applied coats of solvent-free two-pack epoxy over prepared concrete. The build-up (primer + two or three finish coats) reaches 0.5–1 mm total dry film thickness — thick enough to give a durable, chemical-resistant sealed surface without the cost of a full self-levelling epoxy.
Where it's used
High build is the right specification when the substrate is sound and reasonably flat, traffic is light-to-medium (pallet trucks, foot, occasional forklift), and the priority is a sealed, easy-clean, colour-coded floor rather than a heavy structural build-up.
Key benefits
Why UK commercial and industrial specifiers choose epoxy high build coatings for their sites:
- Cost-effective — from £22/m² fitted
- Bright, easy-clean sealed surface
- Wide RAL colour range
- Chemical & oil resistant
- Anti-slip broadcast options available
- Quick installation — 1,000 m² in 2–3 days
Our installation approach
Every install starts with a free site survey to confirm the substrate is fit for the specified system. We mechanically prepare the concrete (diamond grinding, shot blasting or scabbling depending on the resin), install any DPM, primers and repairs required, apply the resin build-up in coats to the specified thickness, and hand over with a written warranty and maintenance schedule. Nationwide, with experienced resin flooring teams.
Frequently asked questions
Is epoxy high build the same as floor paint?+
No. Floor paint is a single-pack, thin coating that wears through in months under industrial traffic. Epoxy high build is a two-pack, chemically-cured 0.5–1 mm system that lasts 8–15 years.
Can I have an anti-slip finish?+
Yes — anti-slip aggregate is broadcast into the final coat and sealed. Grade of aggregate is chosen to match the level of slip resistance and cleanability required.
What warranty do you provide?+
A written 5-year product-and-installation warranty is standard on all supply-and-install projects. Some systems (PU screeds, MMA) can be extended to 7–10 years subject to specification and client maintenance regime.
Do you cover the whole UK?+
Yes. F Wilding Ltd is Essex-based but the majority of our contracts are outside the South East — London, the Midlands, the North West, Yorkshire, the North East, Wales, Scotland and the South West. Travel, accommodation and out-of-hours access are priced into every quote.
