FAQs

Can you lift and replace over raised access flooring?

Yes — we lift and replace carpet tile and LVT over existing access floor panels without disturbing the cable void. Panels are cleaned and panel-flatness re-tested pre-installation.

What cure time should we plan for?

Carpet tile and LVT with rapid adhesive: 6 hours to light foot traffic, 24 hours to full load. Engineered timber with PU adhesive: 24–48 hours. Resin: 12–72 hours depending on system.

Do you recycle lifted flooring?

Yes — carpet tile is routed to Interface's ReEntry programme or Desso's Take-Back, LVT to manufacturer-led recycling schemes where available. Manifests provided.

Can you match existing carpet for phased renewal?

Yes — most commercial carpet manufacturers hold 2–5 year dye-lot continuity. We verify lot availability before committing to a phased renewal programme.
