“Jordan put in carpets for our 2 bedrooms, landing and stairs in our new loft conversion and in 2 existing bedrooms. The quality of the carpets is excellent and the price for the work very reasonable. He gets on with the job, very professional, work of the highest standard. Top class.” — Gary Simmons, verified Google review

What we check first on a Bexleyheath lvt job
- Subfloor flatness
LVT shows every bump — large 1930s and 1950s semis subfloors in Bexleyheath 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 Bexleyheath hallways that means front-door to kitchen.
In short — new build flooring in Bexleyheath from £35/m² fitted; UFH-safe LVT, moisture-tested screed, warranty-safe methods.

New Build Flooring in Bexleyheath — common questions
Yes — best time. We can go in the day after handover, finish before removals, and the floor gets no scuff marks.
Often yes. We use a calcium carbide meter on the visit — if it's over 2% CM we'll recommend waiting or applying a moisture barrier.
Only the ranges rated for it — max 27°C surface, tog ≤1.5. We only quote UFH-approved LVT for these homes.
We'd advise fitting kitchen last on LVT — that way you can pull the fridge/oven without lifting planks in the future.
