Dur-A-Flex systems are ideal for new construction, repair and restoration; it installs easily and cures quickly and provides the correct surface texture for the application.

Things such as how harsh the working conditions can be varying from extremely harsh brutal situation to light service were the material is being installed. With each situation the bonding capacity of the product has to mach how aggressive the product bonding requirements are. Secondly often a factor is the time available to do the installation. Production of the finished floor is affected by many interlocking factors and needs to be balanced with the company"s tolerance for not having access to the space while the work is being done. The third item naturally is the budget for the project and how large it is.
