At South Jersey Building Services, Inc., we specialize in bringing wood gym floors back to life while keeping safety, performance, and efficiency at the center of everything we do. Whether it’s a school, recreation center, or athletic facility, our process delivers a durable, high-performance shine that athletes and staff notice right away.
Our Proven Process
Every great finish starts with proper preparation. That’s why we use 3M Surface Preparation Pads (SPP pads) — advanced pads engineered to remove the top layers of old finish and create the perfect surface for new coatings. In high-wear areas, we can also perform screening to smooth the surface and ensure an even result.
Once the floor is prepped, our team applies two coats of finish using precise application methods. This ensures strong protection, proper build, and the glossy, professional look your facility deserves. The outcome is a refreshed gym floor with the safety, performance, and durability athletes rely on.
Why We Choose Water-Based Systems (Featuring Betco® Finishes)
Traditional oil-based gym finishes have significant drawbacks:
- They release strong odors and harmful VOCs — even after they’re dry.
- They pose fire risks and can continue to leach chemicals over time.
- They take much longer to cure, leaving gyms closed for days.
That’s why we use Betco’s industry-leading sport floor finishes, including their innovative Emulsion PRO+ system. Betco is recognized as a trusted name in athletic flooring products, delivering advanced water-based and hybrid finishes that are safer, faster-curing, and built for heavy use. Our team is also trained directly by Betco representatives, ensuring every application follows the latest manufacturer standards for performance and durability.
Floor Care Plan: Protecting Your Investment
A great-looking floor is only the beginning. To keep it performing year after year, we provide a custom floor care plan for each client:
- Staff Training: Guidance on proper daily, weekly, and monthly care routines.
- Chemical Guidance: Review of correct dilution ratios to protect the finish.
- Supply Options: We can provide the same trusted cleaning chemicals for mopping and auto scrubbing, ensuring the floor stays in top condition.
This proactive approach extends the life of your floor and reduces long-term costs.
