Years
Experience in Concrete Flooring

Our teams operate across Reading, including Green Park, Winnersh Triangle, Suttons Business Park, Thames Valley Park, and logistics hubs around Junctions 10, 11 and 12 of the M4. We manage the full process from sub base preparation and level control through to slab placement, power floating and curing, delivering warehouse floors designed for consistent performance under intensive forklift and pallet traffic.

Slab Installations in Reading

STEP 1

Site Survey &
Slab Planning

Every Reading project starts with a detailed survey of ground conditions, existing build ups and operational requirements. This can include logistics sheds near Junction 11, technology and data-related facilities at Green Park and Thames Valley Park, and mixed industrial units around Suttons Business Park and Rose Kiln Lane. Slab thickness, reinforcement layout and joint pattern are planned to suit bearing capacity, racking layouts, access routes and anticipated materials handling equipment.

Concrete Placement &
Surface Finishing

Concrete is placed using laser-guided equipment where bay configuration and access permit, helping us achieve consistent levelness across large warehouse and marshalling areas. On tighter sites or multi-phase refurbishments, such as occupied units around Reading Gate Retail and industrial clusters off the A33, pour sizes and sequencing are adjusted while maintaining control over surface regularity. Power floating, edge detailing and curing regimes are selected to provide a durable finish compatible with intensive forklift and pallet truck movements.

Verification, Handover &
Ongoing Management

Completed slabs can be checked for compressive strength and surface regularity where specified in the design. Joint locations are recorded and we provide guidance on curing, cleaning and traffic management so operators in Reading, Wokingham, Theale and surrounding towns can introduce racking, conveyors and automated systems in line with the slab’s design performance and programme requirements.

Concrete Floors Engineered for
Accuracy and Reliability

Structural performance icon

Structural
Performance

Slabs are engineered to support forklift routes, pallet racking, mezzanines and static plant loads typical of Reading’s logistics, technology and light manufacturing sectors. Reinforcement and concrete specification are selected to manage cracking and provide robust joint and edge performance along main traffic aisles, loading bays and goods-in areas across Green Park, Winnersh Triangle and neighbouring estates.

Laser-Guided
Accuracy

Where appropriate, laser-guided placement allows tight level tolerances across large slab areas. This supports high-bay racking, narrow-aisle systems and automated handling equipment used in distribution centres and service hubs along the Reading and M4 corridor, including Theale, Green Park and Thames Valley business parks.

Durability and compliance icon

Durability &
Compliance

Curing and finishing methods are selected to cope with repeated vehicle movements, regular cleaning and the mixed operational demands of logistics, data and storage environments. Installations are delivered to the agreed specification and relevant UK guidance, with clear maintenance recommendations to help facilities teams protect slab performance over the life of the floor.

Concrete Slab Installation Reading
Common Questions

Do you provide site surveys at Green Park and Winnersh Triangle?
Yes. We carry out site surveys across Green Park, Winnersh Triangle, Thames Valley Park and Suttons Business Park to review sub base condition, levels, drainage and access before finalising slab design and construction details for each Reading project.
Can you work in live warehouses near Junction 11 of the M4?
Many Reading schemes involve operational warehouses close to Junctions 10 and 11. We plan phased work areas, agree safe access routes and coordinate programmes with site management so key operations can continue where practical while slab works are undertaken.
How do you manage vibration and noise constraints on business parks?
On technology and office-led parks such as Green Park and Thames Valley Park, we take account of local noise and working hour constraints. Pour times, plant selection and finishing programmes are planned to minimise disruption while still maintaining control over slab quality and curing conditions.
What reinforcement options are used for high-density racking and MHE?
Reinforcement may include mesh, steel fibres or hybrid systems. The chosen solution depends on loading, joint spacing and traffic patterns and is agreed during the design stage to reflect the operational profile of the Reading facility and any heavy-duty routes or marshalling zones.
Do you check surface flatness for narrow-aisle and automated systems?
Where specified, we check surface regularity against relevant UK tolerance classes so narrow-aisle racking, high-bay storage and automated handling systems can operate on a floor with controlled level variations suited to the design requirements.
When can racking and materials handling equipment be installed?
Light foot traffic is usually possible after 24 to 48 hours. Racking, forklifts and other heavy equipment are typically introduced between 7 and 14 days once curing and strength development have been reviewed against the project specification and any compressive strength test results available for the slab.
What information do you provide at handover for Reading projects?
At completion we can provide joint layout drawings, compressive strength test data where taken, curing and maintenance guidance and any agreed tolerance or compliance information to support long-term floor management across Reading warehouses and industrial units.
