Specialist School Flooring Contractors You Can Trust

Choosing the right flooring for schools is critical. Schools need surfaces that can handle thousands of footsteps daily, stand up to spills and scuffs, and stay safe for students and staff. The wrong flooring can quickly wear out, become a trip hazard, or cost a fortune in maintenance.

At FLR Group, we specialise in providing durable, low-maintenance flooring for schools, from classrooms and corridors to sports halls and science labs. As school flooring contractors, we know the pressures schools face – tight budgets, strict safety standards, and the need for quick installations during holidays or out-of-hours. That’s why we deliver high-quality, long-lasting flooring with minimal disruption.

The Right School Flooring Materials for Every Area

Different spaces in a school have different flooring needs. High-traffic hallways need tough, slip-resistant surfaces, while classrooms need something comfortable underfoot. We supply and fit a range of school flooring materials tailored to every environment, including:

  • Vinyl sheet & tiles – Durable, easy to clean, and available in slip-resistant options for safety.
  • Carpet tiles – Soft, comfortable, and great for acoustics in classrooms and libraries.
  • Safety flooring – Ideal for wet areas like toilets, changing rooms, and kitchens.
  • LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tiles) – Stylish, durable, and practical for modern school designs.

We help schools select the best materials to balance safety, durability, and cost-effectiveness.

School Flooring Tiles – A Practical & Cost-Effective Choice

Many schools opt for school flooring tiles like carpet tiles or LVT because they offer flexibility and easy maintenance. If one tile gets damaged, it’s simple to replace without redoing the entire floor. This keeps costs down and extends the life of the flooring.

  • Carpet tiles help reduce noise in classrooms and provide warmth underfoot.
  • Vinyl tiles are waterproof, easy to clean, and perfect for high-traffic areas.
  • Loose-lay tiles allow for quick, adhesive-free installations, reducing downtime.

Our team advises schools on the best tile options to match their budget and long-term needs.

Understanding Different School Flooring Types

Schools require a variety of flooring types depending on the function of the space. We provide all major school flooring types, ensuring every area has the right solution:

  • Corridors & Reception Areas – Hard-wearing, slip-resistant vinyl or LVT to withstand heavy footfall.
  • Classrooms & Offices – Comfortable carpet tiles or LVT for a practical, low-maintenance finish.
  • Sports Halls & Gyms – Specialised vinyl sports flooring for impact absorption and durability.
  • Science Labs & Tech Rooms – Chemical-resistant and easy-to-clean safety flooring.
  • Toilets & Changing Rooms – Anti-slip safety flooring for hygiene and water resistance.
