A professionally designed and installed gymnasium floor is often the centerpiece in schools, community centers and athletic clubs. The large open surface of a gym floor provides one of the best areas for branding and showing team pride.
Today’s gymnasiums are used around the clock providing space for a wide variety of sporting events, gym classes, and charity events, to just name a few. With such constant varied use it becomes evident that gym floors require continuous cleaning and maintenance to look great, provide a safe play area, and have a long useful life.

Our synthetic and rubber floor services include spot repairs, cleaning, complete resurfacing (when applicable) and total replacement.
If you have ever broom swept a gymnasium floor, you know how much dust, dirt and sand, can accumulate after only a few hours use. Annual surface refinishing will make daily janitorial care easier, significantly enhance the look, and add years to the life of your floor.
Within a few months a new gym floor will accumulate shoe marks, blemishes, marring, and scratches resulting in a dulled surface with less finish thickness to protect the floor. A typical annual hardwood gym floor refinish can consist of a buff and recoat for minor scratches or complete sand and refinish to bring the floor back to its original condition.
