Restaurant and café flooring in Blackfen

What restaurant & café flooring in Blackfen actually involves
A Blackfen restaurant needs two floors — one that meets HACCP in the kitchen, one that looks right in the dining room. We fit R11 safety vinyl with welded seams and coved skirting back-of-house, then commercial LVT front-of-house, in the same overnight visit.
Original pine floorboards everywhere — every LVT or vinyl job here gets ply'd first.
- R10/R11-rated safety flooring for kitchens
- Welded seams and coved skirting for HACCP compliance
- Front-of-house LVT that survives spills and chair scrapes
- Overnight fits so the restaurant opens as normal
Before we quote a vinyl job in Blackfen
- Sheet seams
Sheet vinyl in a typical Blackfen kitchen is usually a single drop — no seam, no water-ingress risk.
- Subfloor
On older 1930s bay-fronted semis we overlay with ply before laying vinyl so the boards underneath don't telegraph through.
- Coving
For bathrooms we can cove the vinyl up the wall 100mm to seal the floor properly.
“Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value — all 5 stars.” — Sam Condon, verified Google review
Bottom line: a compliant kitchen floor is coved and welded — anything less fails inspection.
