Bexleyheath subfloor prep — the details that matter
- Bexleyheath subfloor reality
1950s semis usually have chipboard upstairs — checked for squeaks and re-screwed first.
- Underlay choice
8mm crumb is the usual call for Bexleyheath bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Doorway transitions
Most large 1930s and 1950s semis doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
Bottom line: no decorative floor hides an unlevel slab. Level first, fit second.
