Slade Green scratch-proof flooring — dogs, claws and accidents
Most Slade Green pet-flooring calls follow the same pattern: a laminate that scratched, a carpet that stained, a vinyl that curled at the door. We fit LVT rated AC5+ with a 0.55mm wear layer — claws don't mark it, and the whole floor mops clean.

Cottage floors often need a full ply overlay; 80s semis usually have flat chipboard.

Pet-Friendly Flooring in Slade Green — common questions
Rigid SPC with a 0.55mm+ wear layer and a textured (not smooth) finish. It's fully waterproof, claws don't mark it, and it gives dogs grip on the turns most post-war terraces hallways have.
Not the wear-rated ranges we fit. AC5 LVT is tested for commercial retail traffic — a house cat can't get through the top layer. Cheaper £15/m² LVT will mark within weeks.
Stain-resistant loop pile or solution-dyed nylon — both let you mop or spot-clean accidents without a mark. Standard wool will hold the stain forever.
