Years
Supporting Heavy Plant Facilities

Mining and quarry operations rely on equipment warehouses for maintenance, overhaul and storage of large components. Floors must support extreme static and dynamic loads, resist abrasion from aggregates and provide clean, stable surfaces for safe maintenance workflows.

Our Expertise

Right arrow Flooring Needs in Mining & Quarry Equipment Warehouses

Mining and quarry equipment warehouses handle tracked plant, large wheel loaders, crushers, conveyors, wear components, hydraulic assemblies and maintenance tooling. These areas require robust floors that withstand heavy impacts, support jack loads and cope with dragged parts and abrasive debris. Surfaces must also remain predictable for workshop staff working with lifting equipment, service platforms and mobile tooling.

Many facilities utilise reinforced industrial slabs beneath service bays, with concrete resurfacing treatments used to restore older working areas. Polished concrete is used in stores, component preparation zones and logistics corridors, similar to setups found in aerospace manufacturing and fabrication workshops.

  • Floors capable of carrying extreme point loads from jacks, stands and tracked machinery.
  • Resistance to abrasion caused by aggregates, tools and dragged components.
  • Predictable surfaces for safe use of mobile maintenance equipment.
  • Stable levels to support alignment tasks, lifting procedures and assembly work.
  • Defined movement routes for loaders, telehandlers and parts transport vehicles.

Right arrow Flooring Problems in Mining & Quarry Equipment Warehouses

Floors in heavy plant environments experience forces and conditions rarely seen in typical industrial settings. Damage often escalates quickly, affecting safety, slowing down maintenance and increasing wear on equipment.

Surface tearing and gouging from tracked machinery or dragged components

Slab cracking caused by point loads from jacks, stands and concentrated equipment weight

Abrasion from aggregates, fines and quarry stone carried into the workshop

Damage at thresholds and turning zones where wheel loaders rotate under power

Uneven surfaces affecting maintenance stands, lifting equipment or tooling

Localised settlement beneath long-term parked plant or storage racks

How We Upgrade Floors in Mining & Quarry Equipment Warehouses

STEP 1

Assessment of Loads,
Workflow and Equipment

We walk the facility with your team, reviewing the equipment fleet, service operations, jack points and dragging patterns. We note where floors currently deform, create dust or hinder safe use of lifting equipment. This includes any linked storage yards or external equipment buildings sharing access routes.

Design of Slab, Levels
and Surface System

We design a scheme tailored to heavy plant usage, often combining reinforced slab construction in service bays, abrasion-resistant resurfacing in high-wear areas and polished concrete in stores or assembly areas. Joints and levels are reviewed to ensure predictable movement of equipment and consistent support for maintenance procedures.

Double arrowsSTEP 3

Installation,
Phasing and Handover

We coordinate works around service schedules, plant availability and safety requirements. Sections are isolated, damaged concrete removed, surfaces prepared and the new slab or resurfacing system installed. Each phase is returned ready for cleaning, tooling setup and progressive reintroduction of equipment.

BS 8204 Surface Regularity Standard

BS 8204

Floors are installed and checked to BS 8204, supporting stable lifting, predictable plant movement and sufficient tolerance for heavy maintenance operations.

BS EN 206 Concrete Standard

BS EN 206

Concrete works follow BS EN 206 for mix quality, reinforcement and curing, ensuring slabs withstand concentrated loads, abrasion and vehicle impact during quarry and mining operations.

CSCS Certification

CSCS Certified

Our operatives hold CSCS cards and work confidently in heavy plant environments with defined exclusion zones, maintenance procedures and safety controls.

SMAS Worksafe Contractor Accreditation

SMAS Worksafe

SMAS Worksafe accreditation supports structured risk management across mining and quarry workshop projects, reinforcing safe delivery and compliance.

Mining & Quarry Equipment Warehouse Flooring
Common Questions

What flooring systems work best in mining and quarry equipment warehouses?
These facilities typically rely on high-capacity reinforced concrete slabs in service and maintenance bays, combined with abrasion-resistant resurfacing systems in dragging zones, wheel paths and areas exposed to stone or aggregate. Stores and assembly spaces may use polished concrete to improve lighting and housekeeping. The final combination depends on equipment weight, dragging patterns, and operational layout.
Can floors be upgraded while plant maintenance continues?
Yes. We typically phase works so that maintenance can continue in other bays while individual sections are isolated. We coordinate with your team to sequence works around major overhauls and equipment availability, ensuring critical servicing remains uninterrupted. Access planning is included to maintain safe movement of tools, parts and vehicles throughout the programme.
How do upgraded floors improve safety during maintenance work?
A level, well-constructed floor improves the stability of jacks, stands, lifting frames and inspection platforms. Removing surface defects also reduces trip risks and helps tools and components move predictably across the workshop. Improved finishes support housekeeping by preventing dust formation and reducing the time required to keep the bay safe for technicians and fitters during complex repairs.
Will resurfacing withstand tracked machinery?
Yes, provided the correct resurfacing system is chosen. High-performance systems can withstand gouging, abrasion and point loading when installed over a prepared concrete base. In areas where tracked plant frequently turns or drags, we reinforce the specification to control long-term wear and reduce maintenance demands. For the heaviest zones, thicker reinforced slabs may be required to support sustained use.
How do floors cope with aggregates, stone and other abrasive materials?
Abrasive fines can quickly erode weaker surfaces. By installing denser, abrasion-resistant top layers and repairing local defects, we reduce dishing, gouging and dust formation. This leads to fewer housekeeping issues and less surface deterioration beneath loaders, tools and maintenance equipment. Many quarry workshops report improved visibility and cleaner working zones after resurfacing is completed.
Can older quarry workshops be upgraded without full slab replacement?
Often yes. Many older facilities have a fundamentally strong slab but a damaged surface layer. We can remove weak material, rebuild joints and apply levelling resurfacing treatments to restore a consistent running surface. This avoids full demolition and can be delivered in stages to keep maintenance operations running throughout the project.
