Charlton vinyl — the details that matter
- Sheet seams
Sheet vinyl in a typical Charlton kitchen is usually a single drop — no seam, no water-ingress risk.
- Subfloor
On older victorian village 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.
Recap — commercial rubber and sprung vinyl across SE7, fitted to last a five-year lease.
Postcodes: SE7 · Routes: the A206 and Blackwall Tunnel approach · Common build: Victorian village terraces.
