In today’s "race to the bottom" environment, the role of independent flooring consultants is sometimes questioned. “Why bring in a specialist when project engineers or contractors can do the work for free?” It’s a fair question – until you look at the risk that is involved.

Here’s why:
✅ 𝗨𝗻𝗯𝗶𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁
An independent consultant works solely in the client’s best interests. Unlike material suppliers, we don't have competing priorities or conflicts of interest like pushing our higher margin products or cutting safety factors to win a tender. We validate designs, verify execution, and provide solutions that align with project goals – nothing more, nothing less.
✅ 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
Small oversights in floor construction can lead to big problems: operational delays, costly repairs, or failed automation systems. By identifying issues early and ensuring floors meet exacting specifications, we save time, money, and reputations.
✅ 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀
At FACE Consultants, we apply decades of global expertise and cutting-edge tools to deliver precision. Whether it’s VNA floor flatness for high-density warehousing or the latest G2P technology, we help clients meet the growing demands of automation and robotics.

On a recent contractor lead Design & Build project, our independent review flagged several key gaps in the shop drawings and method statement that could have lead to big performance issues in the slab. We also found several QA issues on site during our pre-pour QA process. By catching this in time, we avoided costly rectifications for the client and helped to deliver a floor that performed exactly as required.
