Done properly, a herringbone LVT floor lasts 15–20 years. Done badly, it shows every subfloor bump and the borders never line up. Across Welling we screed or ply first, snap the pattern lines off the longest wall, and glue every plank — no clicks, no movement.

What herringbone lvt in Welling actually involves

Done properly, a herringbone LVT floor lasts 15–20 years. Done badly, it shows every subfloor bump and the borders never line up. Across Welling we screed or ply first, snap the pattern lines off the longest wall, and glue every plank — no clicks, no movement.

Falconwood bungalows often sit on solid concrete — minimal prep, ideal for LVT.

Three things that decide a lvt fit in Welling

  • Subfloor flatness

    LVT shows every bump — 1930s semis subfloors in Welling 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

    Plank run follows the longest sightline; in narrow Welling hallways that means front-door to kitchen.

Included with every Welling job
  • Glue-down herringbone in oak, walnut and smoked finishes
  • Self-levelling screed where the subfloor isn't flat
  • Single or double border, with or without inlay strip
  • Pattern direction set on the longest sightline

Welling FAQs

Herringbone LVT in Welling — common questions

How long does a herringbone fit take in Welling?

A hallway is usually 1.5–2 days including screed. A full kitchen-diner is 3 days from prep to walking on it.

Can you do a contrasting border?

Yes — single, double or with a brass inlay strip. Popular in Welling Victorian hallways and bay-fronted rooms.

Do I need screed first?

Almost always with herringbone — LVT shows every bump and the small planks magnify it. In 1930s semis we usually screed the kitchen and ply the hallway.

Karndean or Amtico for a Welling hallway?

Both are excellent. Amtico Spacia is the everyday choice; Karndean Art Select is the premium option with deeper bevels. We bring samples of both.
