Bournemouth Warehouse
Floor Resurfacing & Overlays

We provide warehouse floor resurfacing and industrial overlay solutions across Bournemouth and the wider Dorset area. Worn or uneven concrete slabs are upgraded using bonded self levelling systems, polymer modified overlays and resin finishes that are designed in line with BS 8204 and BS EN 206 for industrial and logistics environments.

Years
Experience in Concrete Flooring

Our Bournemouth resurfacing teams work in and around Nuffield Industrial Estate, West Howe, and sites serving Poole, Christchurch and the A338 corridor. Projects include distribution sheds, trade parks and production units where existing concrete slabs are surveyed, repaired and overlaid to improve levelness, durability and operational performance.

How We Deliver Warehouse
Resurfacing in Bournemouth

STEP 1

Slab Investigation
& Substrate Preparation

We begin by assessing the existing concrete slab, looking for cracking, joint failure, surface wear and any signs of movement or contamination. This is particularly important in busy coastal warehouses and port related units around Bournemouth and Poole. Defective areas are broken out and repaired, joints are reformed where needed and the floor is mechanically prepared using grinding, shot blasting and diamond tooling to create a clean, textured surface with the correct profile for overlay adhesion.

Overlay Installation
& Level Management

Once preparation is complete, we install the selected warehouse floor resurfacing system. This may be a polymer modified cementitious topping, a cement based self levelling compound or a resin system chosen to suit the loadings, chemical environment and cleaning regime. Thickness is controlled to improve flatness across large bays and to manage regularity in racking aisles and marshalling areas. Our overlays are designed for forklift and pallet truck traffic, with particular focus on wheel paths and turning zones common in Bournemouth logistics and storage facilities.

Curing, Joints
& Return to Service

After application, the overlay is cured in line with manufacturer guidance and the agreed programme. Fast track systems can allow light traffic within 24 to 48 hours, subject to temperature, humidity and ventilation, with heavier forklift and racking loads introduced later. Joints are cut or reinstated as required to control movement and minimise future damage. Before handover, we review flatness and surface quality where specified and provide maintenance and operating guidance so Bournemouth sites can plan cleaning, joint care and traffic loading on the new industrial floor overlay.

Surface Profile
and Bond

Achieving a reliable bond between the new overlay and the existing slab is critical for long term performance. Our teams in Bournemouth use mechanical preparation methods that remove weak material, laitance and surface contamination, providing a consistent profile for primers and bonding agents. This helps prevent delamination, blistering and edge failures, creating a composite concrete and overlay system that maintains integrity under repeated forklift and pallet truck movements.

Programme and
Access Planning

Port linked warehouses, coastal distribution centres and trade parks around Bournemouth often need to stay operational while works are carried out. We plan resurfacing programmes around delivery windows, shift patterns and peak periods, using phased zones or night working where appropriate. By pairing this approach with rapid curing overlay systems, we help sites manage downtime while still providing the preparation time and curing conditions needed for a durable industrial floor overlay.

Long Term
Durability

Resurfacing allows existing slabs to remain in place while renewing the wearing surface with a system designed for industrial use. Correctly specified overlays provide abrasion resistance, impact performance and smooth running for MHE, reducing ongoing patch repairs and joint maintenance. For Bournemouth operators, this offers a practical alternative to full slab replacement, with less disruption to racking, services and established traffic routes.

Warehouse Floor Resurfacing Bournemouth
Common Questions

How do you assess an existing warehouse floor in Bournemouth before resurfacing?
We carry out a condition survey, checking for cracking, settlement, joint failure, surface wear and contamination. Where the slab and sub base are structurally sound, local repairs and mechanical preparation usually allow us to install an industrial floor overlay instead of removing and replacing the slab.
What resurfacing systems are suited to Bournemouth warehouses and logistics units?
Typical systems include cement based self levelling compounds, polymer modified cementitious overlays and resin toppings. The selection depends on loadings, type of MHE, any exposure to moisture or coastal salts, cleaning regime and the required surface finish for the Bournemouth facility.
Can you work in live warehouses near the Port of Poole and along the Bournemouth coast?
Yes. Many resurfacing projects are carried out while sites remain operational, including units serving port, coastal and city distribution activity. We can sequence works by zone, plan around delivery windows and consider night or weekend shifts to maintain access for vehicles and staff while still achieving correct preparation and curing times.
How quickly can a resurfaced warehouse floor be put back into use?
Curing and return to service times vary by system, thickness and site conditions. Some fast track overlays allow light traffic within 24 to 48 hours, with heavier forklift and racking loads introduced later. We will confirm expected timescales at design stage so Bournemouth operators can plan stock movements and operational changes around the work.
Are your Bournemouth projects delivered in line with BS 8204 and BS EN 206?
Yes. Resurfacing works are designed and installed in line with BS 8204 for screeds and toppings and BS EN 206 for concrete specification, together with standard UK industrial flooring practice. Manufacturer guidance on preparation, application and curing is followed, and we can coordinate with engineers or consultants where required.
Do you handle tight access and multi let trade parks in Bournemouth and Poole?
We regularly work in multi let estates and trade parks where access and parking are constrained. Site logistics, material deliveries and waste removal are planned in advance, and phasing is used so that neighbouring occupiers can continue to operate while warehouse floor resurfacing is carried out in defined areas.
What information do you need to quote for a warehouse floor in the Bournemouth area?
Useful information includes floor area, current slab condition, known issues, age of the building, type of MHE and loads, any planned racking changes and available access times. Photographs and layout drawings also help us to propose a suitable industrial floor overlay system and programme for your Bournemouth site.
