Trent Construction Services specialises in high-performance concrete flooring for data centres and other large-scale industrial projects across the UK. Based in Burton-upon-Trent, we deliver both ground-bearing and suspended slabs that meet strict compressive strength and FM1-grade flatness requirements.
Our decades of experience ensure mission-critical operations run on the robust floors that they need. These floors support heavy server racks, cooling systems, and ancillary equipment without compromising performance.
The UK alone has more than 500 data centre facilities, including hyperscale, AI/ML, and financial data centres. Specialised concrete flooring is an essential part of the design of these facilities. It ensures that in these high-stakes environments, all data remains secure, efficient, and available.
Hyperscale Data Centres
High-capacity installations need expansive floor areas with laser-guided flatness. Our Ligchine Screedsaver and Somero S22 EZ laser screeds maintain precise tolerances across large pours, enabling optimal server rack layout configurations.
AI/ML Facilities
Advanced computing hardware generates substantial heat loads, requiring floors that accommodate specialised cooling channels while supporting heavy equipment. We design and construct floor systems that integrate precise insulation and service pathways to meet the complex infrastructure requirements of AI/ML facilities.
Financial Data Centres
Financial institutions require uncompromised operational reliability. Our concrete floors deliver sustained performance under high traffic loads and meet stringent regulatory standards, while accommodating future infrastructure expansion requirements.
Recent government initiatives have accelerated the development of new data hubs across the country. The establishment of a major technology site at Culham in Oxfordshire, home to the UK Atomic Energy Authority, demonstrated the shift toward larger, more complex high-tech facilities. With growing demand for AI and data processing capabilities, construction requirements for these facilities are becoming more technically demanding across the country.
Trent Construction Services delivers concrete flooring solutions for data centre projects from 2,000 to 20,000 square metres. Our integrated approach ensures quality control at every stage:
Reinforcement Installation
We install steel mesh, rebar, or engineered fibre solutions according to structural specifications and load requirements. Our installation process ensures precise reinforcement placement for equipment zones and high-load areas.
Data Centre Floor Slab Installation
We install ground-bearing slabs and suspended concrete floors using Lewis deck or modular systems as specified. Our laser-guided screeding methods achieve the surface regularity requirements for server rooms and raised access flooring installations.
Integrated Services
We coordinate the installation of insulation, vapour barriers, and service channels during the construction phase.
Beyond data centres, we’ve delivered high-performance concrete flooring for research facilities, secure installations and major infrastructure projects. Working in regulated environments has given us practical experience with complex documentation requirements and site security protocols. We integrate smoothly with main contractor teams and understand the demands of controlled site operations.
