Practical flooring uplift and disposal across DA14/DA15
Flooring Uplift & Disposal is primarily a diagnosis job: what has failed, what can stay, and what must be prepared before the finish goes down. For Sidcup properties, we inspect the floor in person, explain the options and provide a written quote. Uplift, preparation and fitting can be scoped together so the handover between stages is clear.
