LVT & Vinyl Flooring in Coulsdon

The Secret to Flawless LVT

Luxury Vinyl Tile is a fantastic, durable, and waterproof flooring choice for Coulsdon homes, but it is entirely dependent on the subfloor. Because LVT is thin, any ridge or gap in the floorboards underneath will 'telegraph' through to the surface within months, snapping the click-joints.

Our fitting service prioritizes preparation. We secure loose timber boards and install a 6mm SP101-grade plywood overlay. For concrete bases, we use self-leveling latex compounds to create a perfectly flat, glass-like finish before laying a single plank.

Glue-Down vs. Click LVT

Whether you've chosen a glue-down herringbone pattern for a modern ground-floor extension or an acoustic click-lock system for upstairs bedrooms, we have the specialized tools and experience to fit it correctly.

LVT Thresholds at Coulsdon's Extension Subfloor Joints

The same timber-to-concrete joint that often runs through a Coulsdon extension creates a different challenge for LVT. A floating click-lock plank needs room to expand and contract, so rather than running boards straight across a plywood transition ramp, we break the floor with a proper threshold strip at the joint — this hides the ramp's edge, lets each side move independently, and stops the click-lock mechanism from being put under load it wasn't designed for. Where the flooring is meant to run continuously without a visible break, we instead feather the ramp into the surrounding subfloor over a wider run, so there's no detectable ridge left for the LVT to telegraph through once it's laid.
