What is a mezzanine floor?
The word ‘mezzanine’ comes from the Italian word mezzano, which means ‘middle.’ By this definition, mezzanine floors are the mid-way floor of a building, where the ceiling is at least twice as high as the floor to accommodate for this extra level.
What does a mezzanine floor cost?
As a rough guide, building a mezzanine floor with Heighton Mezzanines will cost:
- 0 to 60m2 = $550/m2 (estimated)
- 60 to 150m2 = $450/m2 (estimated)
- 150 to 250m2 = $380/m2 (estimated)
- 250 to 350m2 = $370/m2 (estimated)
You can use our free mezzanine floor calculator or estimate floor cost by using our formula:
Floor Size Cost + Floor Weight Capacity % + Location % + Flooring Type % + Complexity of Installation % = Mezzanine Floor Cost
How does floor size, weight capacity and flooring type affect the cost?
Floor size, weight capacity and flooring type will affect the cost of your mezzanine flooring. In some instances, you may need to consider load bearing capacity at an additional cost, especially if your business requires your mezzanine floors to support machinery. For obvious reasons, the more floor space you require of your mezzanine floor, the more materials you will need to construct your flooring. Lastly, the materials you use may impact pricing. We offer chipboard, structural ply, concrete compressed sheet and metal grid mesh.
Do mezzanine floor costs differ by location?
Yes, the price of your mezzanine floor will differ by where you are located. If your building is situated in the city, then it is generally cheaper due to availability of specialised trades to build your flooring. For remote locations, this means travel and accommodation costs, so the price will be higher.
