Renovations: Pet facility-wide floor upgrades

K9 Resorts Luxury Pet Hotel Wayne operates in a demanding environment where floors endure constant wear from energetic dogs, staff movement, and frequent cleaning with powerful disinfectants. The client needed a pet-friendly flooring solution that could withstand these challenges while maintaining the highest standards of hygiene and safety for pets and staff. Key requirements included:

Slip-Resistant and Non-Toxic: The coating had to be non-toxic to ensure a safe environment for dogs, staff, and applicators during and after installation. This was critical for aligning with K9 Resorts’ commitment to pet safety and environmental sustainability.

Durability for High Traffic: The flooring needed to resist scratches, scuffs, and heavy wear from active dogs and frequent cleaning routines, ensuring long-term performance in a bustling pet care facility.

Hygienic and Easy to Maintain: The coating had to support K9 Resorts’ rigorous cleaning protocols using hospital-grade disinfectants without degrading or compromising hygiene standards.

Aesthetic Appeal: The flooring needed to reflect the luxury branding of K9 Resorts, offering a polished, high-end look that would impress pet parents and enhance the facility’s premium ambiance.

Self-Leveling Properties: Frequent use had left minor surface imperfections, such as cracks and gashes, which required a coating capable of self-leveling to create a seamless, professional finish.

Quick Turnaround: To minimize disruption to the facility’s operations, the installation needed to be completed within a tight timeline of a few days.

The challenge was to deliver a flooring solution that met these stringent requirements while maintaining K9 Resorts’ reputation as a leader in luxury pet care.

Key Adhesion Numbers:

The Lifetime Green Coatings team began by thoroughly preparing the facility’s floors to ensure a clean, dry, and stable surface for optimal adhesion. This preparation was critical to achieving the flooring’s exceptional performance. The coating was applied manually to a depth of 40-50 mils, ensuring a robust, long-lasting finish. Applicators wore comprehensive protective gear, including full eye and face protection, coveralls, and gloves, due to the coating’s strong adhesion properties.

To align with K9 Resorts’ luxury branding, a custom decorative finish was applied, featuring a sophisticated color blend that enhanced the facility’s aesthetic appeal. The eco-friendly flooring application process was carefully coordinated to meet the client’s tight timeline, ensuring minimal disruption to K9 Resorts’ operations. The team’s expertise and efficiency allowed the project to be completed seamlessly, delivering a high-quality result that met all of the client’s specifications.
