What we check first on a Catford vinyl job
- Sheet seams
Sheet vinyl in a typical Catford kitchen is usually a single drop — no seam, no water-ingress risk.
- Subfloor
On older edwardian terraces we overlay with ply before laying vinyl so the boards underneath don't telegraph through.
- Coving
For bathrooms we can cove the vinyl up the wall 100mm to seal the floor properly.
- Old flooring uplifted and disposed as part of the claim
- Subfloor moisture-tested before re-fit
- Insurance claim direct-invoicing accepted
- Waterproof replacement flooring specified
