Warehouse Flooring Cost
In general, warehouse flooring can cost between £7 and £15 for every square meter. Of course, this varies based on the warehouse floor itself, the size of the project, the materials you choose, and any additional line marking or other work that needs to be done alongside it. We do our best to keep our prices reasonable, no matter which flooring we're offering.
Warehouse Flooring Types
We offer a wide range of warehouse flooring options, allowing our customers to choose whichever warehouse floors would fit their needs most. From simple smooth flooring solutions to something far more durable and slip-preventative, we can provide bespoke warehouse flooring that's suitable for a range of niche uses.
Warehouse flooring needs to be capable of enduring a lot of punishment whilst also being safe and comfortable for employees to use, often with the added feature of having to support indoor vehicle traffic.
For example, we have a range of warehouse floor tiles that can all be used as heavy-duty flooring. The excellent materials used in your warehouse floor tiles make each tile much easier to maintain, while also allowing them to withstand a lot more wear and tear before showing any obvious signs of damage.
This added strength allows these tiles to surpass many other flooring options, including tile floor choices that may not be suitable for managing heavy loads or supporting vehicle traffic.
Quality
We put quality first, whether that's with epoxy resin flooring or simple vinyl surfaces. Using epoxy resin materials as an example, we work hard to install every epoxy resin surface correctly, and take steps to ensure that every epoxy resin floor is prepared in the way right.
Beyond that, we can make sure that every epoxy resin flooring surface is smooth, and that the epoxy resin surface isn't suffering from durability issues. These floors need to endure pallet trucks and constant contact with heavy equipment, and we design floors that can meet those needs.
Even during the installation process, we focus on installing epoxy resin flooring carefully. When we install an epoxy surface, we install that epoxy surface properly, drawing on our own experience with epoxy flooring as well as installing said epoxy materials to get the job done right. These high standards of quality ensure that we can keep your employees safe, and that we always install something that will benefit sites compared to their existing floors.
Safety
We can supply a variety of safe flooring solutions, walkways and other surfaces for warehouses. We work to ensure that every one of our flooring solutions is safe for employees, suitable for vehicle traffic, able to resist chemical spills, and properly protected from the day-to-day rigours that most warehouse flooring undergoes. Alongside that, we try to aim for cost-effective solutions whenever possible, working within the client's budget.
All of our commercial and industrial workplace flooring is built with the goal of letting them withstand constant heavy-duty use, creating a safe workplace and allowing raised walkways or ramps to be used without as much risk. Not only do we aim for a safe workplace as often as possible, but we try to achieve a high degree of quality in every part of the process, including the installation.
This kind of quality allows us to provide better warehouse surface options, preventing frequent damage or wear and tear whilst making sure that both employees and equipment can move around properly. When both pedestrian and forklift traffic are involved, we make sure that the warehouse flooring surface we provide is able to keep both of them safe without forcing them to get in the way of one another.

Warehouse Flooring Benefits
Good warehouse flooring can provide a variety of major advantages, many of which make proper operating and management of the site far easier. We try to create well-constructed warehouse flooring that can have a direct positive impact on the client's sites, whether that's through the materials themselves or some post-installation coatings, markings and other features that they may have requested for their warehouses.
In general, a decent set of warehouse flooring can offer:
Improved chemical resistance, allowing the surface to remain tough and durable even when covered in chemical spills. Stronger surfaces can even endure corrosive chemicals, allowing them to be cleaned up more effectively.
Improved temperature management for dealing with excessive heat and cold.
Waterproofing, making stains less of a problem and allowing water to be mopped up easily if any gets in. This can also protect the surface below it, as well as any in-floor equipment or wiring.
High durability to manage the day-to-day rigours of proper operation of a warehouse.
Easy-to-maintain structures, making it easier for warehouses to avoid having to replace their floors constantly.
Enough durability to support and receive high traffic, whether that's high traffic made of just pedestrians or a high traffic environment with both pedestrian and vehicle traffic. This can also include heavy-duty equipment, such as transport vehicles.
Frequently Asked Questions
What flooring is used in warehouses?
Warehouses often use epoxy floor, or a similarly high-durability flooring option. These are some of the best for handling heavy loads and dealing with hazardous or dangerous conditions.
What type of concrete is used for warehouses?
Warehouse floors often use a variety of base and subbase materials, all of which are durable in different ways. Some concrete floors are more durable for dealing with heavy traffic (mostly heavy forklift use), while other concrete floors may not receive high traffic as well and are better used as concrete floors for stable high bay racking areas.
How thick should a warehouse floor or warehouse floor tiles be?
Most concrete floor options in warehouses need to be about 7 inches thick to be as tough as possible. Epoxy resin (and non-epoxy resin) flooring solutions can have varying thicknesses, since they're tough in different ways based on their chemical components rather than being tough due to raw density like concrete.
What are commercial or industrial flooring solutions called?
Commercial flooring is often known as industrial flooring too. They're basically the same - the only difference is that industrial floor is usually meant for warehouses and spaces that deal with pallet truck use, high bay racking and other heavy-duty industry requirements.
Commercial flooring, meanwhile, is a more general term for any floors used in a commercial space, which can include restaurants and customer-facing storefronts. This can also include industrial floor, but isn't limited to industrial floor.
What is the toughest type of warehouse flooring solutions?
While something like concrete might seem like the toughest surface option, it really depends on what would suit your site most. Concrete flooring can endure a lot of punishment, but may not be as ideal for heavy forklift use or pallet truck use compared to epoxy resin flooring.
Remember that some options can also be used as coatings. Fork trucks may perform better on smooth resin, but that resin flooring can sometimes be overlaid onto concrete to provide a mixture of advantages from both.
