Flooring Installation

Flooring Installation

The duration of a flooring installation can vary depending on several factors, such as the size of the area, the type of flooring material, and the complexity of the layout. In broad terms, a standard tile floor installation in a medium-sized room can take about a day. Larger projects, such as ones that requiring significant subfloor preparation may extend up to several weeks, especially for commercial properties. Many of the projects we have worked on regarding flooring installations in Birmingham are carried out on business properties.

What kind of preparation is needed before installing new flooring?

Proper preparation is essential before beginning any flooring installation. which starts with removing old flooring and giving the subfloor a good clean. Before you can lay the new floor, you need it to dry, and then make sure it is level. This stage may involve repairing or replacing parts of the subfloor to avoid problems such as uneven surfaces or moisture damage. The longevity and appearance of the new flooring relies on proper set up, as moisture can cause flooring to warp.

    Can commercial flooring be installed over existing flooring?

    Commercial flooring can be installed over existing flooring, which can reduce installation time and costs. This is highly dependent on the condition of the existing flooring and the type of new flooring material. Our flooring contractors in Birmingham may advise against installing heavy tiles over old wooden floors without adequate reinforcement.

    How does commercial flooring respond to moisture or water exposure?

    There are several types of commercial flooring which offer varying levels of moisture or water protection. The choice you make will ultimately come down to how much exposure the floor will have. Flooring materials like ceramic and porcelain tiles are ideal for areas with high moisture due to their water-resistant properties. In contrast, materials like laminate or certain types of hardwood might require additional moisture barriers or specific underlays to prevent water damage.

    Flooring Options for Specific Industries

    Certain industries require specialised flooring installation solutions. Healthcare facilities often require non-porous, easily sanitised floors such as vinyl or linoleum that can withstand heavy cleaning agents. The hospitality sector, which covers hotels and restaurants, need a balance of appealing and durability. Flooring options such as engineered hardwood fit the criteria, but can also be harder to install correctly. Hotels will often choose a heavy-duty carpet with additional stain and water protection, to feel both comfortable, and durable. Handling heavy foot traffic and provide a welcoming environment.

    What impact does the choice of flooring have on indoor air quality?

    The choice of flooring can significantly impact indoor air quality. Materials that trap dust, allergens, or emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can degrade air quality, affecting the health of occupants. Selecting flooring materials like ceramic tiles or certain hardwoods, which do not emit VOCs and are easy to clean, can help maintain better indoor air quality.
