How to Repair Gaps in Wet Pour - Surface Maintenance
Our clients often ask us how to repair cracks and gaps in wet pour surfacing. PlaySmart UK is well equipped to offer play surface repairs for a range of safety flooring. Our team has years of experience in extending the life-span of surfaces across the country.
With age, wet pour surfaces can shrink away from the sides. The process is particularly common in the UK. This is because UK surfaces experience a variety of temperatures and weather condition that causes shrinkage and expansion. Over time this weakens the integrity of the entire surface, leading to more cracks.
PlaySmart’s team helps maintain the integrity of wet pour surfaces with EPDM edge strips and patches. Because of its higher tensile strength, virgin rubber EPDM remains secure and safe for longer. Additionally, EPDM is available in vibrant colours, bringing new life to an area while removing any trip edges.
Our installation team applies the rubber mulch along the edges of a surface and over any gaps, cracks, or weak points in wet pour. This covers weaknesses in the surface and prevents water from entering cracks and widening them over time.
Are you looking for advice on the best method to extend the life of your play surface? Then please feel free to get in touch! You can reach our experienced team directly on 01564 742 811.
We have some wet pour surfacing in our nursery that has shrunk away from the sides. We would like a quote for filling it if possible please. We can photograph and send measurements if that would save a visit.
Hi Mary, thanks for getting in touch. I have passed your request on to Jake who will contact you soon! If you have photos and measurements of the area that would come in handy for sure ~Jasmine
