Commercial shop flooring contractors in Berkshire
If you are opening, moving or refreshing a unit in Berkshire, our commercial shop flooring service covers the layout, the build and the paperwork, with work planned around your trading hours.
Commercial shop flooring is hard-wearing floor covering laid for heavy foot traffic: sheet vinyl, luxury vinyl tile, porcelain, resin and entrance matting.
Local projects in Berkshire
Typical Berkshire jobs for this service involve shopping centre units and retail park stores, as well as salons, barbers and beauty clinics. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.
Across the South East, market towns with conservation areas sit next to large retail parks, so shopfront design often needs to satisfy planners on the high street while retail park units follow the landlord's specification.
What does the work include?
- Anti-slip finishes for wet areas
- Subfloor survey and levelling
- Commercial sheet vinyl and LVT
- Porcelain and ceramic tiling
What approvals might you need in Berkshire?
In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
- A poor subfloor shows through thin vinyl; levelling is worth paying for.
- Entrance areas should have matting to stop rain being walked into the shop.
