Compare Options
Repair, renew or replace?
The right route depends on the condition of the existing surface, which we assess during the site evaluation.
| Option | When it may fit | What’s involved |
|---|---|---|
| Repair | Holes, cracks or sunken areas in an otherwise sound surface | Patching the damaged areas |
| New wear layer | The colored wear layer has worn too thin | A new color-wear layer applied over the old one |
| Replace | Holes and peeling have exposed the cushion layer | Tearing out the old surface and installing a new system |
See PIP maintenance and repair for how wear progresses.
