Before we quote a vinyl job in Dartford
- Sheet seams
Sheet vinyl in a typical Dartford kitchen is usually a single drop — no seam, no water-ingress risk.
- Subfloor
On older victorian 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.
Bottom line: don't replace the floor before the subfloor's dry. We moisture-test first.

Depends on flood depth and subfloor type. A screed floor after a burst pipe often needs 2–3 weeks with dehumidifiers. We won't re-fit until moisture readings are safe — 4% for wood subfloors, 75% RH for screed.
Standard cover is like-for-like. Upgrade to waterproof (SPC over laminate, say) is often the difference the homeowner pays. We quote both on the Dartford visit for the claim.
