Commercial and institutional flooring

Commercial flooring for offices, shops and businesses in Medellín

Pisos Pro Medellín installs and repairs flooring for businesses in Medellín and the Aburrá Valley: offices, shops, medical practices, hotels, warehouses and the common areas of residential buildings. We are flooring specialists, not a general construction company.

Commercial flooring is chosen by foot traffic, cleaning needs, industry standards and how long the business can afford to stop. That is why we deliver a technical proposal with the material, its specification and a zone-by-zone schedule.

We have more than 15 years of experience and more than 900 residential and commercial jobs. Workmanship carries a 1-year warranty, and our crews work with social security and ARL (Colombia's mandatory occupational risk coverage) fully up to date.

  • Written technical proposal
  • Phased work
  • Crews with ARL
  • 1-year warranty

Flooring installation for businesses in Medellín

We take on projects of every size, from a single medical office to a warehouse or a full office floor. The method stays the same: on-site survey, technical proposal, phased schedule, installation and documented handover.

What sets it apart from a home is the specification. A shop that hundreds of people walk through every day needs more than a bedroom floor, and that should be in writing.

  • Survey of the areas and the subfloor condition
  • Proposal with the material's technical data sheets
  • Zone-by-zone schedule with agreed work hours
  • Handover report with a maintenance plan

The right floor for each type of business

Every sector has a different enemy: noise, street grit, disinfectants, forklift wheels or dropped weights. These are our starting recommendations.

Offices and coworking spaces

Carpet tiles, glue-down LVT and class 33 SPC. Carpet absorbs noise in open-plan areas, and its tiles can be swapped one by one if they get stained.

Carpet tiles

Clinics, medical offices and laboratories

Homogeneous sheet vinyl with heat-welded seams and a coved sanitary base, or seamless epoxy. No joints where dirt can build up.

Sanitary epoxy flooring

Hotels and short-term rental apartments

SPC in guest rooms, engineered hardwood in suites and carpet in hallways. We work in blocks of rooms so the hotel never has to close entirely.

SPC flooring

Warehouses, parking garages and industry

Self-leveling epoxy, cementitious urethane and concrete with hardener. Each is specified according to forklift loads, oils and cleaning chemicals.

Industrial concrete floors

Gyms and residential common areas

Rubber rolls or tiles and cushioned sports floors. In residential buildings we protect the slab and reduce impact noise for the apartments below.

Gym flooring

Specifications we document on every project

Few installers share technical data sheets; we attach them to the proposal. These are the specifications we review with your purchasing team or your architect.

Guide values; on every project the manufacturer's data sheet has the final word.

Phased work without stopping your operation

We divide the area into zones and work on one while the rest keep operating. We move workstations in blocks, seal off areas with plastic and vacuum cutting dust at the source.

In occupied spaces we prefer low-odor or water-based systems. Epoxy and noisy work are scheduled for the lowest-occupancy hours we agree on with you and with building management.

In shopping malls, management sets the work hours and usually restricts noise and material deliveries; we build that into the schedule from the proposal stage.

Paperwork for building managers and purchasing departments

Condominium managers (administración) and purchasing departments ask for documentation before letting a contractor in. We deliver it before work begins:

  • Chamber of Commerce certificate (Cámara de Comercio) and tax ID (RUT)
  • Social security payroll records and ARL certificates for the crew
  • Occupational health and safety system records (SG-SST), under Decreto 1072 de 2015
  • Technical data sheets and safety data sheets for the materials
  • Schedule and list of the staff entering the site

The commercial projects we handle most

These are our most frequent commercial jobs and their usual scope. The photos on this page are representative of this type of work.

New flooring in an occupied office

100 to 400 m² of carpet tiles or LVT, zone by zone, while the team keeps working.

Street-front shop before opening

40 to 150 m² of porcelain tile or polished concrete, with the timeline tied to the opening date.

Medical office or clinic

Sheet vinyl or epoxy with a coved sanitary base, designed for cleaning with disinfectants.

Residential complex gym

Rubber tiles 15 to 30 mm thick in the weights area, coordinated with building management to keep the gym closed for as little time as possible.

Commercial client FAQs

Which floor best handles the traffic of a retail shop?

High-traffic porcelain tile and polished concrete are the most durable, lasting 20 years or more. Epoxy wins on cleaning and chemical resistance, but street grit will scratch it if the entrance has no mat.

Class 33 SPC is the fast, more affordable route: it goes over the existing floor in a few days, although it does not last as long.

Can you work in phases without closing the office?

Yes. Before starting, we agree with your team on the zones, the work hours and the material route, and we hand over each zone finished before moving to the next.

Do you provide ARL and social security certificates for your crew?

Yes, before work begins, along with any other documents building management or your purchasing department requests.

Request a technical proposal for your business

Tell us the type of business, the approximate square meters and the date you need the floor ready. With that, we schedule the site survey and prepare the proposal.

On our projects page we describe the typical commercial work we do in offices, shops and clinics.
