Guardia Surface Protection

Guardia Surface Protection is designed for renovation and install days when you need more than masking paper or drop cloths. It lays flat, grips the surface, and helps protect finished floors from paint splatter, drywall dust, tool scuffs, and tracked-in debris. Many contractors choose Guardia Pro surface protection for higher absorbency and tougher jobs, while standard rolls are ideal for everyday site traffic.

Why contractors choose Guardia

Breathable protection for finished floors

Unlike plastic film that can trap moisture, breathable floor protection helps manage vapour over certain installations (system dependent). This makes it a strong option when protecting new floors during trim work, painting, or moving trades through the space.

Anti-slip, stays put

Anti-slip floor protection is a safety upgrade on busy sites. Guardia is built to reduce shifting and sliding, which helps minimize trip risk and keeps protection aligned on walking paths and work zones.

Where to use it

Floors, stairs, and delicate finishes

• Stair protection: wraps and bends for treads, risers, and landings
• Hardwood, vinyl, laminate: shields from dust, grit, and light jobsite abrasion (surface dependent)
• Tile and stone: helps prevent scratches and keeps grout haze and debris contained
• Counters, tubs, and vanities: useful during bathroom and kitchen renovations

Guardia vs heavier board protection

Choose the right protection level

Use Guardia when you want fast coverage, slip resistance, and spill control on finished surfaces. For higher-impact risk (rolling loads, heavy equipment, and repeated drops), many crews step up to rigid board-style protection (project dependent).
