Liquid screed and ready-mix concrete for warehouses, retail units, leisure facilities and industrial buildings, sized for the volume, programmed for the trades, and signed off for the loading.
Commercial flooring covers any non-residential pour, warehouses, distribution centres, retail units, leisure facilities, light industrial. Typically high-volume, often with structural loading requirements, and always with a programme to integrate with steel, MEP and finishes trades.
Main contractors, developers, fit-out specialists, and self-delivering tenants. Anyone managing a commercial build where the floor is a critical path item, and where slippage costs the project tens of thousands per day.
New-build commercial. Industrial refurbishment. Retail change-of-use where the existing floor is wrong for the new use. Warehouse extension matching to existing level. Anywhere a residential-scale contractor can't deliver the volume or the loading spec.
Commercial pours are programme-critical. The crew that pours your floor decides whether the steel goes up on schedule, the cladding is weather-tight on schedule, and the tenant gets their handover on schedule. We've been the floor crew on South Wales commercial projects for three decades, we know what 'on time' means.
Residential delays are inconvenient. Commercial delays are catastrophic. Here's the maths.
Most main contracts carry LDs of £5k–£50k per week for handover slippage. A floor crew that can't deliver to programme can wipe out the floor budget in two weeks of penalty.
Industrial floors are designed to specific point loads and pallet weights. Pour the wrong mix or the wrong reinforcement and you have a floor that cracks, dishes or fails inspection within months of opening.
Floor pour clashing with steel, MEP, or partition trades costs the contractor in standing time, rework and frustration. We integrate with the master programme, not the other way round.
A two-man residential crew can't pour 1,500m² in a day. They'll try. The pour will fail. Use a contractor built for the volume.
Mix design, depth and reinforcement must come from the engineer's loading schedule. We work from your drawings, not from a default mix.
The floor is structural. It is critical path. Programme it accordingly and integrate it accordingly.
Call us with postcode, area and timing. We give you an indicative price on the spot, often within minutes.
For local jobs we visit, measure, and confirm specification for your commercial flooring at no charge. Charges may apply for surveys further afield, agreed up front.
Written quotation in your inbox within one working day of the survey, confirming m² rate, mix design and a firm pour date. All quotes subject to site survey.
Our crew arrives on time with kit, pumps and labour. Continuous flow, level checks, and a clean handover at the end of shift.
Moisture testing on request and after-care guidance so the next trade can start with confidence.
Up to 2,000m² in a single shift. Multi-day continuous pours co-ordinated for distribution warehouses and large industrial floors.
We work to your master programme. We attend pre-start, we attend trade co-ordination, we attend hand-over.
C30, C35, C40 mixes with fibre reinforcement or mesh as the engineer specifies. Floors designed for the loading, not for the catalogue.
Full RAMS supplied on request. Permits managed. Site inductions completed by every crew member.
Even on multi-thousand-m² pours, we hold SR2 flatness, critical for retail and leisure floor finishes.
Prep, supply, pour, dappling, moisture testing, sign-off, one number, one programme, one accountability.
Commercial pours are project management as much as concrete work. Here's how we deliver.
Engineer's loading schedule drives mix strength (C30–C40 typical), depth (75–250mm depending on loading), and reinforcement (fibre, mesh, or both). We supply mix design and delivery tickets for every load, full traceability for building control and main contractor records.
Day joints, movement joints, construction joints, and isolation joints all detailed to engineer's spec. Joint formers installed during pour, sealant strips applied after cure. Joint layout governed by pour geometry, loading and curing shrinkage, not by where it happens to be convenient.
Pre-start meetings, weekly programme reviews, daily site presence during pour weeks. We co-ordinate with steel, cladding, MEP, partition and finishes trades so the floor is poured when the building is ready and signed off when the next trade needs it.
Warehouse: high point-load, FM2 flatness for VNA racking, fibre-reinforced typical. Retail: SR2 flatness for tile, vinyl, LVT, careful trade integration with shop-fit programme. Leisure: chemical resistance, slip resistance, often with falls to drains. Industrial: heavy point load, possibly chemical exposure, often with sealed surface treatments.
Flatness records, moisture test certificates, mix delivery tickets, RAMS and method statements all bundled into a handover pack. Manufacturer product warranties registered to the main contractor or end client as required.

We routinely pour 1,500–2,000m² in a single shift. Multi-day continuous pours for distribution warehouses can run 10,000m²+ across a week, co-ordinated with the main contractor's programme.
Yes, full risk assessment, method statement, COSHH and PPE records supplied on request. Crews CSCS-carded. Pre-start packs available.
Yes, FM2 flatness for narrow-aisle racking is achievable on liquid screed and on power-floated concrete. Specified on a per-project basis.
Yes, that's standard practice on commercial projects. We attend weekly programme reviews and daily during pour weeks.
2–4 weeks for standard commercial bookings. Larger jobs (multi-thousand m²) book 6–8 weeks ahead for programme certainty. Priority slots held for repeat main contractors.
Yes, out-of-hours pouring possible for tenanted retail refurbishment, distribution centres in operation, and any commercial site where day-shift pour isn't practical.
Yes, full delivery tickets, mix design certificates and cube test results supplied for every pour. Acceptable to building control across South Wales.
Yes, and into Hereford and the borders. Multi-trade contracts and framework arrangements available for repeat main contractors.
