Project Overview:
Lakeside Shopping Centre is one of the UK’s busiest retail destinations, with thousands of visitors passing through its doors every day. Refurbishment works within a live shopping centre demand products that can be relied upon to perform, alongside careful planning to minimise disruption and keep installation programmes on track.
Working with 14 Flooring Ltd, SASGO supplied a complete PROBOND® subfloor preparation system for the refurbishment of the Reflection Room Corridor, helping the contractor achieve a durable finish while maintaining productivity throughout the project.
Challenge:
Working within an operational retail environment meant the flooring installation needed to be completed efficiently, with products capable of delivering reliable performance across the refurbishment programme.
The contractor required a levelling compound that could accommodate varying floor depths while offering fast access for following trades, together with a high-performance adhesive capable of providing a dependable bond for the finished floor covering.
PROBOND® Solutions Chosen:
As the exclusive distributor of PROBOND®, SASGO supplied PROBOND® FL307 Flexible Renovation Levelling Compound and PROBOND® B400 Vinyl Flooring Adhesive, supporting 14 Flooring Ltd with both product selection and technical guidance.
- PR200 – Multi-Purpose Primer: A highly advanced, multi-purpose primer for absorbent and non-absorbent surfaces. Designed to prime, stabilise and seal substrates. It increases the adhesion and prolongs workability of levelling compounds. It is ideal for use over Epoxy Damp Proof Membranes.
FL307 – Fast Setting Flexible Levelling Compound: Chosen for its rapid setting times, FL307 enabled faster flooring installations, crucial in maintaining the project timeline.
- FL315 – Feather Finish: Selected for its fast setting times and smooth finish.
B400 – Vinyl Flooring Adhesive: A high-performance adhesive used to securely install vinyl flooring, contributing to the durability and maintenance of clean, safe environments suitable for medical settings.
Benefits, Delivered:
- High-Performance Installation: The combination of PROBOND® PR200, PROBOND® FL307, PROBOND® Fl315, and PROBOND® B400 provided a reliable flooring system, delivering excellent surface preparation, strong adhesion and long-term durability within a busy commercial environment.
- Reduced Downtime: The fast walk-on time of PROBOND® FL307, combined with coordinated product supply from SASGO, helped maintain installation momentum and minimise delays between stages of the project.
- Dedicated Project Support: With a single point of contact throughout the project, 14 Flooring Ltd benefitted from responsive technical guidance, coordinated deliveries and clear communication, making procurement and project management simpler from start to finish.
Conclusion:
Beyond supplying materials, SASGO worked closely with the contractor to ensure products arrived when required, helping installation progress without unnecessary interruption.
With dedicated account support and coordinated deliveries, the contractor had a single point of contact throughout the project, making product ordering, technical enquiries and delivery scheduling straightforward. This collaborative approach reduced administration on site and ensured materials were available as each phase of the installation progressed.
By combining high-performance PROBOND® products with responsive customer support, SASGO helped 14 Flooring Ltd deliver a quality flooring installation within one of the UK’s busiest retail destinations while keeping the project moving.
