Somerset's Atlantic-influenced climate brings driving rain and mild but humid winters that work hard on exterior coatings. For Widcombe floor painting & epoxy customers that has practical consequences: the timing window for exterior work is tighter than people often assume, and interior rooms on north-facing elevations within the SN1 and SN1 areas are noticeably more prone to condensation. We factor both into the products and additives we recommend during the quote stage.

What we look at on a site visit
Concrete condition
New or clean concrete needs less prep. Old, stained, or dusty concrete needs diamond grinding or shot-blasting.
Coating system
Basic floor paint is cheapest but least durable. Two-part epoxy costs more but lasts 10–20 years.
Anti-slip aggregate
Adding anti-slip particles to the final coat adds £3–£5 per sqm but is essential for safety.
Number of coats
Most systems need a primer plus 2 coats. High-traffic areas may benefit from a third coat.
Colour and effects
Standard colours are cheapest. Decorative flake, metallic, or custom colours add to material costs.
