Mar 27th 2023

Basketball season is in full swing, but it will wrap up soon. And after thousands of drills, dribbles, and drives into the paint, those courts are going to need some attention. Can you help?

Opportunity is Knocking

With the economy in flux and inflation on the rise, we talk to a lot of floor guys who are looking for ways to expand their business, reduce costs, and increase profits. If this applies to you, you should consider expanding into sport floor renovation or revaluate which product you use for sport floors.

Here are 3 reasons why you should expand your hardwood flooring business by refinishing sport floors with DuraSeal products:

1. From Sealer to Finish, oil or water, DuraSeal has you covered.

Don't sweat the learning curve! If you use DuraSeal products, you're likely already experienced with the exact products you'll use for sport floors. The main differences are that sport finishes will have a gloss sheen, and the containers are bigger. The same products that you use for residential and commercial jobs - like DuraSeal Quick Dry Sealer and DuraClear Finish - are strong and durable enough for gym floors too.

Say your client is committed to an oil-based poly. No problem! Masterline oil-based polyurethane in gloss is a classic that won't disappoint.

What about a client who wants a water-based sport finish? You've got two great options: DuraClear water-based gloss finish or Masterline water-based polyurethane in gloss.

DuraSeal has you covered.

These are also the names you know and trust because of DuraSeal's amazing reputation. Since 1898, DuraSeal has been known for professional performance and consistency. They'll be there for you. If you have any questions, let us know and Floor Mechanics can connect you to your local DuraSeal rep.

2. DuraSeal offers MFMA-Approved sport floor products.

If you’re new to the sports floor side, the MFMA (Maple Flooring Manufacturers Association) sets the worldwide standard for athletic floor best practices through development of installation techniques, education and certification of high-quality sports flooring products. They publish grading standards, guide specs, floor care recommendations, and specifications for athletic flooring sealers and finishes.

MFMA is an excellent resource for beginner sport floor mechanics AND experienced sport floor mechanics. They’ve been working hard since 1897 to make sure that the right techniques and the right products are used. And they've approved these DuraSeal products:

Rest easy knowing you've made the right choice by picking DuraSeal's MFMA-approved products for your sport floor.

3. You can get everything you need delivered to your home, business, or jobsite from Floor Mechanics.
