Process
How the job runs
Survey and moisture test
Old floor lifted and subfloor prepared
Levelling screed where needed
Floor laid, edges and thresholds finished
How long? A typical office floor is often laid in a few days, depending on preparation and drying time.
Questions to ask an installer
- Have you tested the subfloor for moisture?
- Is floor preparation included in the price?
- What wear rating is the product?
- Who moves the furniture?
Rules and safety
Wet areas, kitchens and ramps need slip-resistant flooring suited to the risk. Old floor tiles and adhesives in buildings from before 2000 can contain asbestos, so check the survey before anything is lifted. A new screed must be dry enough before flooring goes down, or the floor will fail.

Questions
Commercial flooring: common questions
Can you fit over the existing floor?
Sometimes. It depends on what is there and how sound it is. Most contractors want to see the subfloor before they commit.
Carpet tiles or LVT?
Carpet tiles are quieter and easy to replace one at a time. LVT is easier to clean and suits kitchens, receptions and shops.
Can it be done while we are open?
Yes. Flooring is often laid in the evening or at weekends, one area at a time.
