Prepare For a Spring Clean With Temporary Floor Protection Products

With Britain in the midst of a cold snap worthy of any winter, it would be difficult to say that spring has properly sprung. But with a number of bank holidays to look forward to, and adverse weather conditions preventing many people from leaving their houses, thousands of people across the country will be using the coming weeks to get a head start on their spring cleaning. Whether they are carrying out some basic home improvements, going for a wholesale renovation or simply giving their home a thorough spring clean, many of those considering tackling these tasks will be searching for carpet and hard wood floor protection products in order to keep their floors pristine in the coming weeks.

When a carpeted room is due to be redecorated, there are naturally an awful lot of things that can go wrong flooring wise. Wallpaper paste can ruin a carpet for good, dust and debris from moving furniture around can cause discolouration and paint or varnish spillages are always a risk. Carpet protection products in a range of different thicknesses and strengths help to keep the carpets underneath clean and protected during the decorating process, ensuring that they will look perfect when they are unveiled at the end. Supplied in handy rolls which are easy to apply, the carpet protection films use a water-based adhesive which is kind to carpets, and will disappear from sight once used.

Stair wells are a notoriously tricky area to tackle if cleaning or redecorating, which is why many people choose to approach the renovation of their staircases around bank holidays, when they have some extra time. The stairs are also a notoriously difficult area to manoeuvre if there are contractors or builders working in other areas of the house; men carrying furniture and paint up and down stairs all day can cause major damage. Stair protection products are designed to be especially easy to apply, with a layer of adhesive on the inside which sticks to the stairs quickly and effectively. The film protects from dirty feet, paint spillages and other leakage problems, and is available in a variety of thicknesses depending on its purpose.

Hard floors also need to be sheltered and protected when calling in builders, assembling new furniture or applying a lick of paint. The fleece protection will keep hard floors in kitchens, bathrooms or living areas unspoiled and help to defend against average footfall or traffic, as well as any spillages which might occur.  Temporary hard wood floor protection products are suitable for use on wooden floors, tiles and laminate flooring, and can be left in place for up to five weeks; plenty of time to get the spring cleaning done.

Trio Plus’ Surrey Showroom Now Open With Range of Floor Protection Products on Display

Choosing floor protection solutions in preparation for renovation or a special event, whether it be commercial or domestic, can be a tough process. With so many options to choose from, and the possibility of ruined flooring if the wrong product is chosen, it is important to get the right advice and choose the appropriate product. Trio Plus are one of the UK’s leading suppliers of temporary floor protection products, and with their showroom now open in Epsom, Surrey, they are available to field all questions and offer advice about all types of floor protection.

The team at Trio Plus have been providing both carpet and hard floor protection products to companies and residences across the globe for a decade, and as such, they have accumulated a vast amount of knowledge and know-how when it comes to keeping floors protected. The high-quality products have been exported to such cities as Nice, Hollywood, Dubai and Paris, and have been used for a plethora of different purposes, from refurbishing stately homes to protecting existing floors whilst TV shows are filmed. This extensive and varied experience means that the staff at Trio Plus are well-placed to offer detailed advice on unique flooring situations; anyone with doubts or queries about their choice of floor protection need only head to the showroom for assistance. 

Domestic tasks such as decorating or renovation often require some form of floor protection; medium levels of footfall from builders or contractors and the risk of spillages are all placing carpets and hard floors at risk. Many also choose to host parties or special events at their home, and lay down temporary carpet protection products in order to prevent stilettoes from damaging laminated floors or red wine stains on carpets. Trio Plus have a huge variety of products to choose from which can safeguard against such happenings, but applying the right one for the right event can require some advice and guidance from the experts.

Floor protection products are also used for purposes on a much larger scale. School halls regularly lay down floor protection during exam periods to prevent marking floors with chairs and tables. Recent orders from the high fashion brand Burberry and from the production company behind a highly successful ITV drama demonstrate the versatility of the products. But with so much riding on the effectiveness of these products, it is vital to get the right product for the right job. The team at Trio Plus’ showroom can offer advice regarding all projects, large and small, and ensure that the correct product is purchased for the right purpose.
