This 3-day in-person workshop offers practical training from experienced professionals, giving you the confidence and technical know-how to tackle real-life flooring projects with precision and style.

Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or a contractor looking to expand your services, this resin flooring course is tailored to help you master every stage of the process—from surface prep to seamless, high-gloss finishes. Our hands-on teaching approach ensures you leave not only with the theory but also the tactile experience and confidence to take on paid jobs, install floors for clients, or work on your own space.

What You’ll Learn

Across three immersive days, you’ll work directly with trainers who have years of on-site experience. You’ll gain insider tips and proven techniques that go far beyond what you can find on YouTube or forums. The course is divided into structured modules, covering:

• Surface Preparation: Learn how to properly grind, clean, and prime surfaces to ensure a long-lasting resin bond.
• Material Knowledge: Get familiar with the different types of resin (epoxy, polyurethane, and more), additives, pigments, and sealers.
• Mixing & Application: Master the ratios, pot life, and application methods for various finishes, from self-levelling bases to metallic swirls and textured anti-slip coatings.
• Layering Techniques: Explore layering for depth, effects, and durability.
• Curing, Finishing & Aftercare: Understand how to care for floors post-installation and troubleshoot common issues like bubbles or cracking.

You’ll get hands-on experience with real tools and materials, working on demo slabs and small-scale setups that simulate real site conditions. Every step is guided so you gain skills that are immediately transferable to residential, retail, and commercial flooring projects.

Bonus Module: Resin Worktops

In addition to flooring, this course also includes a focused introduction to resin worktops—ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, studios, or bespoke design projects. You’ll learn the fundamentals of creating high-quality resin surfaces beyond the floor, with a look at:

• Mould preparation and edge finishing
• Pigment blending and design techniques for horizontal surfaces
• Tips for casting and finishing seamless, functional resin tops
• Surface durability and aftercare specific to countertops and high-use areas
