Commercial shop flooring across Northamptonshire
Our commercial shop flooring team works across Northamptonshire and the wider East Midlands, taking projects from first survey to final clean in towns including Wellingborough, Daventry, Northampton.
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 Northamptonshire
In Northamptonshire we mostly see pharmacies and healthcare premises and high street units and corner shops. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.
East Midlands town centres combine older Victorian parades with newer precincts, and many fit-outs involve updating dated units for food, beauty and convenience retailers.
What does the work include?
- Commercial sheet vinyl and LVT
- Porcelain and ceramic tiling
- Resin and polished concrete
- Recessed entrance matting
Planning and building control in Northamptonshire
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.
