Providing expertise in supplying and repairing auto electric parts for over 30 years, Guy Auto Electrics is a family run business based in Essex. From repairing alternators to supplying batteries for cars, heavy commercial, industrial and marine applications, they required reliable and high-quality flooring at their workshop.

Searching for a long-lasting commercial flooring solution, the team carried out extensive research before deciding to fit out their workspace with Ecotile Flooring. This included reviewing feedback from other businesses of Ecotile.

Wes Guy, Managing Partner at Guy Auto Electrics shared their journey from research to installation:

The Challenge

The concrete floor in our workspace wasn’t welcoming. The floor had started to look worn out and was becoming tiresome to maintain. We decided to explore our options and had a look at repairing, repainting, or covering our existing floor.

Considering Options

We quickly realised repairing the concrete floor wasn’t cost effective for us and would cause major disruptions to our business and be difficult for us to work around. Painting the floor sounded like an easy option, but it would be repetitive as the paint would easily chip away over time and need to be refreshed frequently. So, we decided the best approach would be to install a floor covering and started to have a look at the different options available to us.

 

The Solution

After looking at a range of floor covering options, we discovered Ecotile Flooring and were impressed with the quality and how long it would last. Reading through the positive customer reviews, we decided to reach out to Alfaholics who had their workshop fitted with Ecotile Flooring. They spoke highly of the great customer service provided from enquiry to post-installation, as well as the performance of the flooring in their heavy-use environment. They also mentioned that the professional installation team from Ecotile Flooring provided a quality fitting and were able to work around them without causing disruption.

Outcome

We decided the E500/7 in graphite would work best for us and fitted 120 sqm, covering the entire space of our workshop. We also took advantage of the custom tile printing service, and had our logo printed across 2 tiles, allowing us to create a personalised feature within our flooring. We used the installation service from Ecotile, and it lived up to our expectations of being a professional and efficient process. We’d recommend Ecotile Flooring for any workshop, it’s low maintenance and performs well in a heavy use environment.
