What bathroom lvt in Abbey Wood actually involves

New-build screed slabs are LVT-ready straight from the developer; council-era boards need ply.
Abbey Wood lvt — the details that matter
- Subfloor flatness
LVT shows every bump — post-2018 new-build apartments subfloors in Abbey Wood almost always need ply or self-levelling screed first.
- Door undercut
We trim doors on the day so they swing cleanly over glue-down LVT — no scraping, no callbacks.
- Pattern direction
Plank run follows the longest sightline; in narrow Abbey Wood hallways that means front-door to kitchen.
- Glue-down LVT — sealed at every edge
- Coved up the wall 100mm where required
- Stone or wood look — Amtico, Karndean, Polyflor
- Sealed under the toilet pan and bath foot
Bottom line: warmer than tile, half the install time, no grout to scrub. Standard in Abbey Wood refits.
