  • How can I tell if my floor is solid? This is in the context of getting a compression shelving unit, they are asking me if the floor is solid but not sure how I can actually tell how solid it is.. it’s a apartment building constructed 5 years back if that helps.

    In other news I completed on the above flat a week back so just want to thank those that offered advice during the process!

  • Obvs depends on the type of building but if it’s a new purpose built apartment block in the UK it almost certainly has concrete floors. I’d be more worried about putting pressure on a single skin of plasterboard ceiling that probably has void behind it.

  • Okay nice one. I know the ceiling is 15mm gyproc plasterboard, we’ll see what they say but their faq says as long as the floor is solid it’s fine
