Waterproof, warm underfoot and almost impossible to tell from real wood — luxury vinyl (LVT) is the floor West Bromwich homeowners ask for most, and for good reason.
LVT — the click and glue-down planks and tiles from brands like Karndean and Amtico — has quietly taken over kitchens, hallways and family bathrooms across West Bromwich. It's fully waterproof, so it shrugs off spills and muddy boots in a way laminate can't; it's warm and quiet underfoot; and the wood and stone effects have got so good that visitors genuinely can't tell it isn't the real thing.
The finish lives or dies on the prep. On the solid concrete floors common in West Bromwich semis we check for damp and level the base with self-levelling screed first, because LVT is thin and telegraphs every lump underneath. On suspended timber we overlay with ply for a flat, solid base. Only then do the planks go down — laid in brick-bond or herringbone, cut clean around units and pipework, and finished with matching trims.
LVT also sits happily over underfloor heating, which is why it's the go-to for open-plan kitchen-diners. Whether it's one room or the whole downstairs, you get a fixed price in writing before we start, and a floor that wipes clean and lasts for years.
Most single rooms are done in a day; a full downstairs is usually two to three, including lifting the old floor and prepping the base. We'll tell you the exact schedule with your quote.
We can help shift furniture within reason — just let us know when you book so we plan the time in. Heavy or fragile items are best cleared beforehand.
Either — we can source and price it in at trade rates, or fit a floor you've already bought. We'll advise on the right board, underlay and finish for the room.
