Applications of floor flatness surveys
Ensuring safety and efficiency in various settings
Floor flatness surveys are crucial for ensuring safety and efficiency in a wide range of environments. These surveys help identify surface irregularities and ensure compliance with industry standards. Used across various industries, including warehouses, factories, and commercial spaces, floor flatness surveys are key to maintaining optimal conditions for smooth operations and safe material handling.

Our methods, equipment, and processes
Advanced technology for precise floor flatness testing
Our skilled surveyors use the latest laser scanning equipment, including terrestrial laser scanners, to deliver precise floor flatness surveys. By scanning the entire floor, we obtain highly accurate data that reflects the true condition of your surface. Following the survey, our specialists provide a detailed report, mapping deviations from planes and assessing compliance with safety and efficiency standards. Our validated reports cover both Free Movement (FM) and Defined Movement (DM) floors, measuring:
- Ensure safety on-site and reduce risks of accidents
- Improve performance of machinery and equipment

What is a floor flatness survey?
Floor flatness survey is the mapping of the floor of a building to determine its flatness, levelness, abrasion and more. You need a floor flatness survey when undertaking a new building, repurposing your current unit, doing a refurbishment project, or setting up in a new premise.
Why would you need a floor flatness survey?
It is important to meet the required surface regularity tolerance because operations are more efficient if lift trucks operate at maximum speed and poor surface regularity will cause excessive vibrations on a lift truck and increase downtime as well as maintenance. The floor flatness survey is essential to ensure health and safety, and the secure running of MHE.
How much does a floor flatness survey cost in the UK?
Our floor flatness survey costs are determined by the size, scale and complexity of the building/site. The conditions and accessibility of the site and the level of detail required will also impact the cost of the survey.
What will you receive?
You will receive a detailed and validated report of findings with recommendations (if improvements are required) from the survey of your building’s floor. It covers both Free Movement (FM) and Defined Movement (DM) floors to help with the safe and efficient running of MHE. Our validated reports measure flatness, levelness, curvature, surface gloss, and surface roughness.
What do we use to provide floor flatness surveys?
Our Red Laser expert surveyors use the latest industrial-grade terrestrial laser scanners to accurately map your floor. The equipment has high precision, ensuring absolute accuracy of the captured data.
