Why flooring matters in football club facilities
As a Head of Maintenance or Groundskeeper, you know that your club’s flooring takes more hits than a goalkeeper in a penalty shootout. Constant foot traffic, muddy boots, water exposure, and cleaning chemicals put traditional floors like vinyl, tiles, or rubber mats under constant pressure.
The solution? Resin flooring: Built for extra time
Resin flooring offers a seamless, durable, and low-maintenance alternative, ensuring safety, hygiene, and efficiency in football club facilities. It’s designed to handle the rough and tumble of daily use, reduce maintenance costs, and create a safer playing field – off the pitch.
At Abacus Flooring Solutions, we’ve already helped some of the biggest names in football upgrade their facilities, including:
🏟 Wembley Stadium
⚽ Fulham Football Club
🔵 Manchester City FC
🦊 Leicester City Football Club
⚽ Selby Football Club
If these top clubs trust us with their flooring, imagine what we can do for your facilities!
Key reasons why resin flooring is a title-winning signing
-
Lower maintenance & cleaning costs: No more own goals
✅Traditional floors crack, stain, and trap dirt, requiring frequent repairs and deep cleaning.
✅Resin floors have a seamless, non-porous surface, preventing dirt buildup, mould growth, and bacterial contamination – a major advantage for changing rooms, showers, and hallways.
✅Cuts cleaning time by up to 50% – so your team can focus on bigger challenges (like fixing that leaky roof in the stands).
-
Safety: Reducing injuries like a top-class physio
✅ Customisable anti-slip coatings prevent falls in wet areas (HSE-compliant).
✅ Shock-absorbing options available for gym areas and training facilities.
✅ Eliminates tripping hazards from cracked tiles or peeling vinyl – so no more embarrassing slips like a dodgy back-pass.
-
Durability: A solid defence against wear & tear
✅ Withstands heavy foot traffic, impact, and chemical exposure – ideal for boot rooms, corridors, and dining areas.
✅ Resists water, mud, and cleaning agents, unlike wood or carpeted areas that degrade quicker than a team down to 10 men.
✅ Lifespan of 5 – 20 years with minimal upkeep saving thousands in resurfacing costs.
-
Fast installation: No need for a lengthy VAR check
✅ We can carry out the work in fast-cure materials, allowing quick turnaround times during off-season maintenance periods.
✅ No grout lines or seams – reducing installation complexity and long-term structural issues.
-
Cost savings & return on investment (ROI): A transfer deal worth every penny
Fact: On average, clubs that switch to resin flooring save up to 40% on maintenance costs over five years compared to traditional flooring options.
💰 Lower repair frequency = fewer budget overruns.
💰 Faster cleaning = reduced labour costs.
💰 Longer lifespan = fewer replacements and disruptions.
Full-time whistle: Time to show bad flooring a red card!
