Slade Green lvt — the details that matter
- Subfloor flatness
LVT shows every bump — post-war terraces subfloors in Slade Green almost always need ply or self-levelling screed first.
- Door undercut
We trim doors on the day so they swing cleanly over glue-down LVT — no scraping, no callbacks.
- Pattern direction

Bottom line: a Slade Green herringbone floor is half about the pattern, half about the subfloor. We do both.
