Restaurant and café flooring in New Eltham
A New Eltham 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.
What restaurant & café flooring in New Eltham actually involves
A New Eltham 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 boards over joists — same story as neighbouring Sidcup, so ply overlay before LVT is the norm.

- Overnight fits so the restaurant opens as normal
Three things that decide a vinyl fit in New Eltham
- Sheet seams
Sheet vinyl in a typical New Eltham 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.
