How We Deliver Concrete
Slab Installations in Plymouth

STEP 1

Site Review &
Slab Design

Each project begins with a detailed review of ground conditions, existing build ups and operational requirements. In Plymouth this can range from inland estates at Belliver and Estover through to brownfield plots close to Cattedown and the dockyards. Slab thickness, reinforcement layout and joint pattern are specified to match bearing capacity, vehicle movements, racking layouts and any local constraints such as existing services or marine-influenced ground conditions.

Concrete Placement &
Finishing

Concrete is placed using laser-guided equipment where bay configuration and access allow, helping deliver consistent levels across warehouse, marshalling and loading zones. On more constrained sites, such as dockside units or plots close to established buildings, we adapt bay sizes, pour sequencing and plant choice while maintaining control over surface regularity. Power floating, edge detailing and curing regimes are selected to provide durable, low-maintenance floors suited to routine forklift and materials handling across Plymouth, Plympton and Langage.

Testing, Checks &
Handover

Completed slabs can be tested for compressive strength and surface regularity where this is required by the project specification. We record joint locations and provide guidance on curing, cleaning and traffic management so operators in Plymouth, Ivybridge, Lee Mill and surrounding areas can introduce racking, conveyors and materials handling equipment in a controlled way aligned with the slab’s design performance.

Structural performance icon

Structural
Performance

Slabs are engineered to support forklift routes, pallet storage, heavy plant and specialist equipment associated with Plymouth’s logistics, manufacturing and marine supply chains. Reinforcement and concrete specification are selected to manage cracking, joint movement and edge durability along high-traffic aisles, loading bays and dock-side marshalling areas.

Laser-Guided
Accuracy

Where appropriate, laser-guided placement helps maintain tight level tolerances across large slab areas. This supports narrow-aisle racking, high-bay storage and conveyor systems used in distribution centres and industrial units throughout Belliver, Estover, Langage and Plympton.

Durability and compliance icon

Durability &
Compliance

Curing and finishing methods are chosen to cope with repeated vehicle movements, local cleaning practices and coastal environmental effects from the Plymouth Sound and Tamar estuary. Installations follow the agreed specification and relevant UK guidance, with maintenance recommendations provided to help facilities teams manage slab performance over its service life.

Right arrow FAQ

Concrete Slab Installation Plymouth
Common Questions

Do you carry out site surveys in Belliver, Estover and Plympton?
Yes. We undertake site surveys across Belliver Industrial Estate, Estover, Plympton and other Plymouth locations to assess sub base condition, levels, drainage and access before finalising slab design and construction details for each project.
How do coastal and marine conditions affect warehouse concrete in Plymouth?
Coastal winds and exposure near the Sound and dockyards can influence evaporation and early-age curing. We adapt pour timing, curing methods and temporary protection to support consistent strength development and protect the slab surface during the critical early period after placement.
Can you work around operational port, defence or marine facilities?
We are used to working in sensitive or operational environments. Programmes are coordinated with site management to align access, delivery windows, security requirements and method statements while maintaining control over slab quality and health and safety on site.
What reinforcement options are suitable for heavy plant and racking loads?
Reinforcement solutions can include mesh, steel fibres or hybrid systems. The chosen approach depends on load intensity, joint spacing and traffic patterns and is agreed during the design stage to reflect the operational profile of the Plymouth facility, including any heavy-duty routes or concentrated point loads from machinery or storage systems.
Do you check floor flatness for narrow-aisle racking and automated systems?
Where specified, we check surface regularity against relevant UK tolerance classes so that narrow-aisle trucks, high-bay racking and automated handling systems can operate on a floor with controlled level variations suitable for the design requirements.
When can racking, forklifts and machinery be brought onto a new slab?
Light foot traffic is usually acceptable 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 test results available for the slab.
What documentation do you provide at the end of a Plymouth project?
At handover 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 Plymouth warehouses and industrial units.
