FIX-A-FLOOR is seeing record sales due to the current economic uncertainty. A sharp increase in sales is due to consumers opting to repair loose and hollow tiles opposed to the expensive cost of replacing entire flooring, says the company. Fix- A-Floor is affordable, easy to apply and more and more consumers and tradesmen are turning to Fix-A-Floor to repair problematic flooring as previously the only solution was the expensive and inconvenient option to replace. The only answer experts had was to tear out entire floors and replace with new tiles. This is difficult, time consuming, expensive and very messy so Fix-A-Floor has been a revolutionary solution. Fix-A-Floor works on all sub-floor materials, the adhesive is a specially formulated copolymer that has elastomeric properties, excellent bonding strength and is extremely viscous. This is the key to the effectiveness of the product as it


flows through the entire affected area underneath the floor ensuring a permanent solution to a previously expensive problem to resolve. It can also work on underfloor heated areas as when dry, Fix-A-Floor does not supress any heat and is guaranteed for the life of the floor. Retailers can look forward to an inexpensive solution to a big problem which saves time and money. Fix-A-Floor therefore generates a completely new revenue stream. The uniqueness of Fix- A-Floor and its money and time-saving benefits will ensure that both DIY’ers and contractors will return to your store, says the company. Distributed exclusively by Electrics Warehouse Ltd, Fix-A-Floor has been nominated as a finalist in this year’s DIY Week DIY product of the Year – a simple DIY repair that is fast, easy and affordable to anyone who can operate a drill, caulking gun and mix up a small batch of grout. n 0121 270 8883 n www.fixafloor.co.uk
