Aviation-Grade Aircraft Hangar Epoxy Flooring in Ipswich

We typically see our aviation-grade systems lasting 15-25 years with proper maintenance. The lifespan depends on your hangar’s traffic levels and chemical exposure. Private hangars with occasional use often exceed 20 years, while high-traffic commercial facilities might need recoating around the 15-year mark. Regular cleaning and inspections help maximize your floor’s life.

Yes, our aviation-grade epoxy systems are specifically formulated to resist Jet A-1, Avgas, hydraulic fluids, and Skydrol. We use specialized resins that don’t break down when exposed to these chemicals. Standard garage epoxy won’t work – you need aviation-grade materials that we engineer for continuous fuel exposure without degradation.

Most single-aircraft hangars take 3-5 days from start to finish. Larger commercial facilities take 1-2 weeks depending on size. We schedule work in phases so you can keep portions of your hangar operational. Our rapid-cure formulations allow limited foot traffic within 24 hours and full aircraft loads within 72 hours.

Not when properly textured. We add anti-slip aggregates to the topcoat that provide traction even when the surface is wet or has oil on it. You can choose texture levels based on your needs – light texture for smooth rolling of equipment or heavier texture for maximum slip resistance in maintenance areas.

We can in most cases. If your existing epoxy is still bonded to the concrete but showing wear or damage, we can resurface it. We’ll inspect your current floor, identify any problem areas, and recommend either spot repairs or full recoating. This costs significantly less than complete removal and replacement.

Yes, our systems comply with CASA Part 145 maintenance facility standards and AS 1940 requirements for flammable liquids storage. We provide documented fire resistance ratings and can install static-dissipative systems when required. You’ll receive all compliance documentation needed for inspections and regulatory audits.
