Warehouse & Shop Floor Concrete in Wilmington, Ohio

Commercial warehouse, shop floor, and industrial concrete slab installation across Wilmington and Southwest Ohio. Built for fork-truck traffic, rack loads, and heavy equipment.

Industrial Slabs

Slabs Spec'd for Real Operations

A warehouse or shop floor isn't a residential slab scaled up — it's a completely different engineering problem. Point loads from rack uprights, constant fork-truck abrasion, pallet-jack wheels, dropped tools, chemical exposure, and thermal cycles from dock doors opening all day. The wrong slab fails fast, and fixing a failed industrial floor is ten times more expensive than pouring it right the first time.

Corbett's Contracting pours commercial and industrial floors across Southwest Ohio for warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing shops, auto service bays, and agricultural-commercial facilities. Every slab is spec'd to the real loads it'll see — thickness, reinforcement, joint layout, and finish selected based on use, not a one-size-fits-all template.

Whether you're building new, expanding, or replacing a failed slab, we handle it clean.

Worth Knowing

How We Spec an Industrial Floor

Every warehouse and shop is different — the wrong spec wastes money on one end or fails early on the other. Here's the short version of how we scope each slab.

Load AnalysisRack point loads, fork-truck weight, equipment placement, and fleet traffic patterns define slab thickness.
ReinforcementWire mesh vs rebar vs post-tension based on slab size, load, and joint strategy.
Joint LayoutControl joint spacing and construction joints planned around rack layouts and traffic lanes to minimize damage.
Finish & FlatnessPower-trowel finish with FF/FL flatness numbers matched to lift-truck mast height and warehouse-management requirements.
Commercial FAQ

Questions Before You Bid It Out

How thick should a warehouse floor be?
Typical warehouse slabs run 6-8 inches depending on rack loads and fork-truck weight. Heavy-duty distribution centers with high-pallet racks often need 8-10 inches or more. We analyze the load plan before spec'ing thickness.
Can you pour around existing racking?
Yes — for replacement floors, we work around existing racks or coordinate rack relocation with your team. For new pours, we'll coordinate with the rack installer so joint layout matches the grid.
Do you handle floor flatness requirements (FF/FL)?
Yes. For high-bay warehouses with tall lift trucks or narrow-aisle equipment, we pour to specified FF/FL flatness numbers using laser screeds and proper crew sizing. Flatness requirements go in the bid.
What about sealing, hardening, or dustproofing the floor?
We can apply sealers and shake-on hardeners as part of the pour for improved abrasion resistance and dust control. Full epoxy or polymer coatings are typically a specialty coater's scope, but we pour the slab ready for them.
How long until we can run fork trucks on a new slab?
Foot traffic after 24 hours. Light traffic at 7 days. Heavy equipment and fork trucks at 28 days when concrete reaches full design strength. We'll give you a specific return-to-service date in the bid.
