What luxury vinyl tiles in Plumstead actually involves

Plumstead lvt — the details that matter
- Subfloor flatness
LVT shows every bump — victorian and edwardian terraces subfloors in Plumstead 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 Plumstead hallways that means front-door to kitchen.
"Amtico herringbone across the whole ground floor, seamless from room to room." — SE18 homeowner
Bottom line: LVT is a design product now, but only if the install is right.
