A food retailer will require a hygienic floor that is easily cleaned and resists spillages and bacterial growth, whereas a furniture retailer may prefer the more luxurious appearance of fitted carpet or carpet tiles. Usually, a floor finish should be unobtrusive and not detract from the goods that the retailer is selling, but some outlets such as pubs and restaurants will want to create comfortable surroundings and the floor finish can contribute to this. For example, a warm oak floor in a country pub will create a far nicer ambience than a more practical vinyl."

Commercial vinyl offers protection to the sub floor against moisture ingress. Domestic products tend to be purely decorative."

These include durability, appearance, ease of maintenance and cost effectiveness. Specific requirements must be taken into consideration such as whether slipping is a potential hazard, or if an element of sound proofing is required. The demands put upon the floor finish will guide your choice - some floors will be more suitable for your requirements than others. Once you have established the most practical solution you can then assess whether to choose a sheet or modular product. Carpet tiles and Luxury Vinyl Tiles can minimise wastage over the equivalent broadloom carpet or sheet vinyl."

Modern laminates can feel more comfortable underfoot, but vinyl is more versatile and can be installed anywhere, it withstands aggressive cleaning and can be completely soaked. Laminate should just be swept or mopped with a mop that is virtually dry. The final choice comes down to personal preference based upon the demands that will be made of the floor. "

In normal use, carpet or carpet tiles need regular vacuuming and will benefit from being professionally cleaned periodically. Vinyl and wood can be revived with a damp mop – again, a professional clean for vinyl will keep the floor looking good should it become too soiled. Solid or engineered wood floors benefit from a light sand and re-sealing every year or two, rather leaving it for a long time which then requires the floor to be heavily sanded and refurbished. Routine maintenance spreads and limits the cost, leaving a floor until it is badly soiled or damaged can lead to premature and costly replacement."
