- Coving
For bathrooms we can cove the vinyl up the wall 100mm to seal the floor properly.
- Subfloor
On older large victorian and edwardian detached we overlay with ply before laying vinyl so the boards underneath don't telegraph through.
- Sheet vinyl with slip resistance for HMO kitchens/bathrooms
- Cord carpet in bedrooms — durable, cheap to replace
- Whole-property fits in 1–2 days between tenancies
- Invoices with itemised breakdowns for landlord accounting
Bottom line: a landlord's Bickley floor needs to survive, not impress — we spec accordingly.
