Gloucester Warehouse
Floor Resurfacing & Overlays

We provide warehouse floor resurfacing and industrial overlay systems throughout Gloucester and the wider Severn corridor. Worn or uneven concrete slabs are refurbished using bonded self levelling compounds, polymer modified cementitious overlays and resin finishes, with systems selected to suit logistics, storage and production environments and to support long term structural and surface performance.

Years
Experience in Concrete Flooring

Our Gloucester resurfacing teams work around Gloucester Business Park, Quedgeley and Waterwells Business Park, Barnwood and other industrial areas along the M5. Projects range from distribution sheds and manufacturing units to multi let estates where existing concrete slabs need improved levelness, joint performance and durability under forklift, pallet truck and tug movements.

How We Upgrade Warehouse
Floors in Gloucester

STEP 1

Diagnostic Survey
& Surface Preparation

Every scheme starts with a diagnostic survey of the existing slab. We review cracking, joint breakdown, surface wear, impact damage around racking legs and historic patch repairs, which are common in long serving warehouses near Gloucester docks and along the M5. Localised defects are broken out and reinstated, joints are rebuilt where necessary and any contamination or weak laitance is removed. The floor is then mechanically prepared using grinding, shot blasting and diamond tooling to provide a clean, profiled substrate ready to receive the warehouse floor resurfacing system.

Overlay Installation
& Level Tolerances

Once preparation is complete we install the selected industrial floor overlay, which may be a polymer modified cementitious topping, a cement based self levelling compound or a resin finish. System choice reflects loadings, wheel types, internal climate and cleaning regime. Thickness and flow are controlled to correct local undulations, adjust falls where drainage is required and improve regularity in racking aisles, marshalling lanes and loading areas. The goal is a smooth, durable surface that works with guidance systems and MHE used in Gloucester distribution, manufacturing and storage facilities.

Curing, Detailing
& Handover

After installation, the overlay is cured in line with manufacturer guidance and the agreed programme. On suitable projects, rapid curing systems can allow controlled foot traffic or light MHE in 24 to 48 hours, with full forklift loading and racking introduced once strength and hardness targets are reached. Movement and construction joints are cut or reinstated to manage slab behaviour and limit edge damage. Before handover we review the surface finish and, where required, flatness and regularity, and provide maintenance and operating guidance tailored to the Gloucester facility and its operating profile.

Surface Preparation
and Mechanical Key

The life of a warehouse floor overlay is governed by how well it is bonded to the existing slab. Our Gloucester teams invest heavily in mechanical preparation, removing coatings, contamination and weak material and creating a repeatable surface profile. This, combined with suitable primers and bonding agents, supports composite behaviour between slab and overlay and helps to prevent debonding, blistering and surface instability under forklift, pallet truck and tug traffic.

Programme, Phasing
and Access

Many Gloucester facilities support regional and national distribution with limited scope for extended shutdowns. We plan resurfacing programmes around trunking times, shift patterns and seasonal peaks, using phased work zones, temporary access routes and, where appropriate, night or weekend working. Rapid curing systems can then be used to hand back areas in sequence while still allowing adequate time for preparation and curing of each phase.

Service Life
and Cost Planning

Breaking out and replacing a slab is disruptive and expensive, especially in busy sheds with established racking, services and automation. Resurfacing allows the structural concrete to remain where it is sound, while renewing the wearing layer with an overlay designed for abrasion resistance, impact and smooth running. For operators in Gloucester this approach supports longer floor life, fewer reactive repairs and more predictable maintenance budgets.

Right arrow FAQ

Warehouse Floor Resurfacing Gloucester
Common Questions

What types of Gloucester warehouse and industrial floors do you resurface?
We work on distribution sheds near the M5, warehouse and office space at Gloucester Business Park, units at Quedgeley and Waterwells Business Park and manufacturing or engineering floors in and around Barnwood and Hardwicke. Floors are generally suitable for resurfacing where the existing slab and sub base remain structurally sound and able to accept a bonded industrial overlay.
Can resurfacing be carried out while our Gloucester warehouse remains operational?
Yes. Most projects in the area are carried out in live facilities. We phase works by zone, set up clear work areas and temporary traffic routes and agree possession windows around trunking, loading and production times. Night or weekend working can also be used where this helps to maintain service for local and national customers while resurfacing is underway.
How do you deal with older slabs and moisture issues near the Severn?
Older floors and sites close to the river may be more prone to moisture or historical repairs. During the survey stage we review cracking, previous coatings, moisture levels and any signs of movement. Where required we can incorporate moisture testing, appropriate primers or barrier layers and local slab repairs so the industrial floor overlay has a stable substrate and reliable bond over time.
What sort of programme durations are typical for Gloucester resurfacing projects?
Programme length depends on the floor area, system type, thickness and phasing. Smaller phased areas can often be completed over a series of short possessions, while larger bays may be resurfaced in fewer, longer sections. We provide project specific programmes so that Gloucester operators can align stock movements, vehicle flows and staffing with the works schedule.
Is resurfacing suitable for high bay or narrow aisle warehouses in Gloucester?
Yes. Overlays can be specified and levelled to support high bay racking and narrow or very narrow aisle layouts. We pay particular attention to flatness, regularity and joint performance in racking aisles so that guidance systems, lift trucks and picking equipment operate smoothly and safely in tall installations along the M5 corridor and within Gloucester Business Park and similar estates.
Can you resurface floors in food, cold store or temperature controlled environments?
We can resurface floors in chilled, ambient food and temperature controlled environments, subject to suitable planning and system selection. Considerations include temperature, condensation and hygiene requirements. We select overlay and, where required, resin finishes that are compatible with the operating temperature and cleaning regime and plan works so that product safety and site standards are maintained throughout.
What information helps you prepare a quotation for a Gloucester facility?
Helpful information includes approximate floor area, slab age and condition, known issues, details of materials handling equipment and loadings, any planned changes to racking or layout and available access periods. Photographs, survey reports and layout drawings also assist in developing a practical resurfacing specification and phasing plan for the Gloucester site.
