Safety flooring questions from Canterbury customers
Do you have safety flooring experience in the same building type in Canterbury?
Yes — we keep a project log by sector. If you want to see a recent safety flooring fit in a comparable Canterbury building before booking, we'll happily walk you through it.
Do you provide test certificates for Canterbury compliance audits?
Yes — we supply manufacturer slip-test certificates and our own installation sign-off for every Canterbury safety-flooring project.
How long does a Canterbury commercial kitchen install take?
A standard Canterbury commercial kitchen is 2-3 days including prep, fit, welding and coving. We work around your service times.
Will you fit materials I've bought elsewhere?
Occasionally, yes, but we can't warranty product we didn't supply. Most customers find our warehouse prices are better than the retail shelf anyway.
What's the difference between safety vinyl and standard vinyl?
Safety vinyl has aggregates through the wear layer that maintain slip-resistance even when wet. Standard sheet vinyl can become slippery when wet — fine for a domestic kitchen, not for a commercial one.
