Pedestrian Walkway Painting
Basildon, Essex
As part of our industrial floor painting services, Intercity offer specialised pedestrian walkway painting for workshops, factories, warehouses and any other concrete flooring. This can be part of a full floor painting refurbishment project from us or just simply for pathways to be painted on existing floors. We have an extensive portfolio of line painting, zone painting and walkway marking. We can even paint on any Health & Safety symbols and other imagery you may require.
On this particular project at Sunbelt Rentals in Basildon, the customer opted for a dark grey floor coating with contrasting yellow pathways. This started out as a very old, damaged, oily floor with a coating that needed a fair bit of preparation work. The existing coating needed to be removed so we ran over the surface with our state-of-the-art remote control floor grinder. We did the entire surface twice to take the concrete back to an acceptable state for painting.
We then applied two coats of solvent-based epoxy, as specified by the customer. Sunbelt Rentals specify solvent-based epoxy for all of their UK workshop floors. Intercity are happy to work with our clients and use the customers’ choice where possible. However, this isn’t what we would have chosen for the application as industrial coatings experts of over 25 years.
The customer then gave us a drawing for where they wanted their footpath which we followed, coating in the same solvent-based epoxy but in a bright shade yellow. Three coats of the yellow paint ensured a bold contrast to the new dark grey floor beneath.
Intercity Contractors have been offering specialist coating services for over 25 years. We are professional experts in paint removal and applications, including polyurethane and epoxy resin floor painting. We offer our services on a national basis with bases in the Midlands and Central London.

Why Should You Paint a Workshop Floor?
Workshops are some of the busiest places within a business, with people and products coming and going at all times. Not to mention the use of tools and machinery, which can be prone to damaging concrete floors. This leads to wear and tear on a daily basis, especially on unsealed surfaces.
Not only does Intercity improve your workshop floor visually, we also protect the concrete surface beneath, keeping your workshop floor at its best for longer. Intercity can match any colour you desire to a durable warehouse floor paint.
Pedestrian areas should be clearly differentiated from vehicle areas to prevent accidents. Intercity can define designated areas in your workspace such as outlining walkways, vehicle bays and highlighting hazards. Creating visual cues to aid the safety and efficiency of your workshop.
